Survey Of Self Lyrics - Hangnail

My eyes are open wide and I can't stand the view 

of what's been held inside 

It runs much deeper than skin, it's more than casual, 

and I'm defecting again 

My senses are getting slow 

When I fall flat on my face 

I know for sure, I feel secure 

that you won't give up on me 

I've been there countless times before 

You've never failed, you never walked out on me 

I'll never comprehend the grace you've shown to me 

Your patience has no end 

I want to give you a return on your investment in me 

Something I've never earned 

Something that I can show 

I'm aware you're looking over me constantly 

A prodigal is coming home 

I'm aware you're waiting there for me constantly 

A prodigal is cominng home today, he's on his way
