These waves are waking me. New life is breaking through. Here in the wake of me I find I'm in the wake of you. I give the life I cannot keep to gain the life I cannot lose. Currents of mercy speak a word I can't refuse. Coming clean – it's not an easy escape. But it won't be a mistake.
I'm so sick of building my life on only boards and nails. For what is man upon the sea but a torn and ragged sail? I had one thing left to say when all other words had failed. God, my god, have mercy! I cast myself into the gale. Coming clean – it's not an easy escape. But I can see the sea would have me either way. Coming clean – I'm bleeding but I'm being remade. Like every seed new life begins within the grave.
Your waves are breaking these walls I built in my pride. Your grace is shaking this wretched mast I call my life. You wash my world away. Wash my world away. Wash my world away. It's a splinter in your side. Coming clean – it's not an easy escape. But I can see the pain is worth the price that I pay. Coming clean – I'm bleeding but I'm being remade. Here in the sea the worst of me is fading away.
