Given time for wounds to heal the guilty party's always me

And I know there's array of some sins I hadn't seen

It scared me to be away from my home and family

But I'm hoping you are holding onto me

Yeah I felt further ahead but it wasn't what I thought

Tryna take a deep breath in, my anxiety won't stop

Found my knees to the place where i knew that i could start

Never thought that i could love someone so far 

I never heard until the fire in my soul

And still I acquiesced and did as i was told

How many times have you been just ignored

And so you wait, till my heart is ready to listen more

Till my heart is ready to listen more

Given time to share a word but it always came out wrong

Try to find the healing balm inside a world that has gone wrong

Always tried to be someone who you knew you could count on

And I know that I can't do it on my own

I never heard until the fire in my soul

And still I acquiesced and did as i was told

How many times have you been just ignored

And so you wait, till my heart is ready to listen more

Till my heart is ready to listen more

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-oo-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

I never heard until the fire in my soul

And still I acquiesced and did as i was told

How many times have you been just ignored

And so you wait, till my heart is ready to listen more

Till my heart is ready to listen more
