[Verse 1]
I am a sinner, oh my soul
I turn a blind eye, oh my soul
Oh my soul
Does not the surface fail to hold?
Is not the water for too cold
Cold for me?
Through all my doubting
And all my longing
A shallow instinct
To do what serves me
[Chorus]
But still, I know that life is not
Meant to be lived simply for me
But what is serving others if
Not just a means to feel "complete"
Before we die, is finding love
Just survival in disguise?
I pray for others with fingers crossed
That I may keep what I call "mine"
[Verse 2]
I'm a stranger, but you clothed me
I was shaken and you held me
Though you were to my left, you gave to one with less
And your actions were made "right"
I am a sinner, oh my soul
I turn a blind eye, oh my soul
Oh my soul
Does not the surface fail to hold?
Is not the water for too cold
Cold for me?
Through all my doubting
And all my longing
A shallow instinct
To do what serves me
[Chorus]
But still, I know that life is not
Meant to be lived simply for me
But what is serving others if
Not just a means to feel "complete"
Before we die, is finding love
Just survival in disguise?
I pray for others with fingers crossed
That I may keep what I call "mine"
[Verse 2]
I'm a stranger, but you clothed me
I was shaken and you held me
Though you were to my left, you gave to one with less
And your actions were made "right"
