Picking Up Grace Songtext
von Matt Shenk

Holding back my fear of getting stuck
Hoping to find some peace in the dust
Of the burned down home where I lost so much
Finally, time to clean it up

Some wounds with last forever
Scars will always fade
You know nothing comes from suffrin′
Unless you rise up through the pain
You can't feel tomorrow′s sun
Standing in yesterday's rain

And I keep on falling down
Over and over again
But still I keep gaining ground
Closer than I've ever been
To laying down the blame
I′m laying down blame and picking up grace


Taking a deep dive on shoulda and coulda been
Paid the past from moments I was in
Down the rabbit hole I climb
Armed with regret and broken pride

Oh, it′s hard to resist it
What if's and that′s a shame
Hard to know when the young me left
And the old man came
Know he taught me to be grateful
For the things that got away

And I keep on falling down
Over and over again
But still I keep gaining ground
And closer than I've ever been
To laying down the blame
To laying down the blame

And I keep on falling down
Over and over again
But still I keep gaining ground
Closer than I′ve ever been
To laying down the blame
I'm laying down blame and picking up grace


And I keep on falling down
Over and over again
But still I keep gaining ground
Closer than I′ve ever been
To laying down the blame
I'm laying down blame and picking up grace
