Count it all as lost

I wanna believe these words are more than letters to me
I want to believe
A covenant to stand the battlefield of time
Many times I´ve written words holding me to stay pure
Where is the truth in these motions
Afterwards feeling motionless (motionless)
I keep breaking my promises
I keep breaking my word to you and I
I keep breaking my promises
Once again, I´m letting you down
How must a broken man fix his brokenness if he´s not the answer?
I can´t do this on my own
On my own
I need you here (here)
I need you here (here)
I need you here
Each and every day that passes leaves me worse off than before
Many times I´ve sworn I wouldn´t look back, never look back
Instead of fighting to be a man
I just wanna know who I am
Fighting with my fists leaves me bloody and broken
Almost every single time
so I´m going at it with your strength instead of mine
Please be my strength
so I´m going at it with your strength instead of mine
Please be my strength
I need you here
I need you here!
I´ve carried this burden long enough
With a heart of conviction
I´ve betrayed us both
I have to forfeit
The shame is too much to...
Take the lead and reign over me
Reign, reign
Reign over me
Reign, reign
Reign over me
You knew you´d find me here (find me here)
It took me losing sight
To count it all as lost (all as lost)
To see that I´m finally found
Count it all as lost
There´s so much more to gain
Count it all as lost
Take the lead and reign over me
I want to believe
A covenant to stand the battlefield of time
Many times I´ve written words holding me to stay pure
Where is the truth in these motions
Afterwards feeling motionless (motionless)
I keep breaking my promises
I keep breaking my word to you and I
I keep breaking my promises
Once again, I´m letting you down
How must a broken man fix his brokenness if he´s not the answer?
I can´t do this on my own
On my own
I need you here (here)
I need you here (here)
I need you here
Each and every day that passes leaves me worse off than before
Many times I´ve sworn I wouldn´t look back, never look back
Instead of fighting to be a man
I just wanna know who I am
Fighting with my fists leaves me bloody and broken
Almost every single time
so I´m going at it with your strength instead of mine
Please be my strength
so I´m going at it with your strength instead of mine
Please be my strength
I need you here
I need you here!
I´ve carried this burden long enough
With a heart of conviction
I´ve betrayed us both
I have to forfeit
The shame is too much to...
Take the lead and reign over me
Reign, reign
Reign over me
Reign, reign
Reign over me
You knew you´d find me here (find me here)
It took me losing sight
To count it all as lost (all as lost)
To see that I´m finally found
Count it all as lost
There´s so much more to gain
Count it all as lost
Take the lead and reign over me
