Carry Me (Live from Bridgestone Arena)

I chased you into the light
Yeah, I stayed there to see myself pure
All the ashes, scars, they fail
But they pale in comparison to yours
There were footprints the size of the universe
There were fortunes that no one could earn
So I chased you farther still
And I hope that I never return

From the river's mouth
To the mountain peak
From the great divide to the valleys deep
I need you to carry me
Carry me, carry me
I'm on my way, but I'm in too deep
I need you to carry me

You were calling me into the deep
Into waters that no map could find
Yeah, you were calling me out beyond my fears
Where my darkness finds rest in your light
I found a fortress where I could surrender
Where my shame didn't hide what I lacked
And so I chased you out farther still
'Cause I know that I ain't never coming back

Yeah, from the rivers mouth
To the mountain peak
Through the great divide and the oceans deep
I need you to carry me
Carry me, carry me
I'm on my way, but I'm in too deep
I need you to carry me

I found a place where my past was forgiven
Where my mistakes met a grace I couldn't earn
Yeah, so I piled my excuses and defenses in the night
I lit a match, stepped back, and watched 'em burn

Yeah, from the rivers mouth
To the mountain peak
From the great divide where the waters meet
I need you to carry me
Carry me, carry me
I'm on my way, but I'm in too deep
I need you to carry me
I need you to carry me

From the day that I was born
To the edge of these seas
I need you to carry me
