SHE LEANS ON JESUS

Written by: J.R HILTON 2016

SHE WALKS BY AND HEADS TURN 

SHE PRETENDS NOT TO NOTICE

THE WAY SHE CARRIES HERSELF

I BELIEVE SHE SEEMS TO HAVE IT ALL

PROBABLY NOT THE KIND OF GIRL I'D CALL

THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT GOES

FOR ANYBODY KNOWS

SHE MIGHT SIT ALONE AT NIGHT

SITTING THERE IN CANDLELIGHT

SHE MIGHT BE CASTING A SPELL

SHE MIGHT BE GOING THROUGH HELL

YOU NEVER KNOW UNTIL YOU KNOW

YOU ONLY SEE WHAT SHE WANTS TO SHOW

NOW SHES DRIFTING

 FROM ONE EPISODE TO THE NEXT

OH SHES CHARGED SHES VEXED

AND HER FIRE IS BURNING, OUT OF CONTROL

HER LIFE'S BURNING BRIGHT

HER LOVES THERE JUST OUT OF SIGHT

SHE LEANS ON JESUS, SHE DOESN'T TRUST SCIENCE

HER IMAGINATIONS ON HOLD

SHE'S OKAY BUT HER HEART IS COLD

SHE DOESN'T TRUST A SOUL

TALKS TO HERSELF AS SHE GOES

SHE'LL TELL YOU ALL HER PROBLEMS

WITH NO CONCERN, YOU MIGHT HAVE SOME TO

SHE'LL TELL YOU IT'S ALL ABOUT HER

EVERYTHING THAT SHES ENDURED

SHE'LL TELL YOU STORIES

THAT NEVER SEEM TO END

SHE'LL WAIVER BUT SHE WON'T BEND

WHERE DOES THIS ALL GO

I'M SURE SHE DOESN'T KNOW

BUT I'M MOVING AWAY IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION

I'LL KEEP GOING

 WON'T WORRY ABOUT NOT KNOWING 

MORE ABOUT THAT GIRL

THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT GOES
