I Am Understood? - Relient K

Sometimes it’s embarrassing to talk to you

To hold a conversation with the only one who sees right through

This version of myself

I try to hide behind

I’ll bury my face because my disgrace will leave me terrified

And sometimes i’m so thankful for your loyalty

Your love regardless of the mistakes i make will spoil me My confidence is, in a sense, a gift you’ve given me And i’m satisfied to realize you’re all i’ll ever need

You looked into my life

And never stopped

And you’re thinking all my thoughts

Are so simple but so beautiful

And you recite my words right back to me Before i even speak

You let me know, i am understood

And sometimes i spend my time

Just trying to escape

I work so hard, so desperately, in an attempt to create space

Cause i want distance from the utmost important thing i know

I see your love, then turn my back, and beg for you to go You looked into my life

And never stopped

And you’re thinking all my thoughts

Are so simple but so beautiful

And you recite my words right back to me Before i even speak

You let me know, i am understood

You’re the only one who understands

Completely

You’re the only one who knows me yet still loves completely

And sometimes the place i’m at is at a loss for words

If i think of something worthy, i know that it’s already yours

And through the times i’ve faded and you’ve outlined me again

You’ve just patiently waited, to bring me back and then

You looked into my life

And never stopped

And you’re thinking all my thoughts

Are so simple but so beautiful

And you recite my words right back to me Before i even speak

You let me know, i am understood

The noise has broken my defense

Let me embrace salvation

Your voice has broken my defense

Let me embrace salvation

The noise has broken my defense

Let me embrace salvation

Your voice has broken my defense

Let me embrace salvation

The noise has broken my defense

Let me embrace salvation

Your voice has broken my defense

Let me embrace salvation

Your voice has broken my defense

Let me embrace salvation

Let me embrace

Let me embrace salvation
