Hurting Place   Music and lyrics by Kara Johnstad       Please don't go   I'm so afraid to lose you before I really   Know you   Don't walk away    All though I know the pain's    So hard for you to bare   Love twists and tears us    It dresses and it wears us   You look so gaunt and torn   Your face rather worn   You're in a hurting place, looking for some grace   Call out my name and I'm there   Dissolve all the shame, know that I care       Darkness Chills you're pulled so far inside   Just keep talking to me baby, I say   Icey glares and silent stares Can't regonize your eyes   You're cut off from the world in every way    You tug at your T, and mumble “just let me be”   I try to decipher if your grumble means maybe   Phases sometimes faze us   And jesus sometimes saves us   But sometimes it's just you alone against the world   Harsxh winds that blow, Carrying the weight of each word      Your voice has changed    Grown dark and deeply grained   Since your struggle with your loss   Let me gobble up the dark and give you just a little spark Yes,   Cry out the tears in my name   Release those bellied fears of shame      Like a cactus cry in the desert rain,    Like a late night chat on a long night train   Like a deep yowl of a warrior's cry   Or a mountain climber hanging from the sky   Like a cricket in the dark longing to sing   Or the humming flutter of a blackbird's wings   Like a firefly longing to light again
