Scales

I was in a terrible place
Just a runaway looking from the outside in
I had a hunch in my gut
Wasn't time to give up, but didn't know what that meant
I was just feeling my way through desert sand
Looking for signs of a promised land
But all the roads that took me nowhere
Were what I needed just to get there
I didn't know a different story
I was just living what I knew
If You hadn't shown me something more I might've missed You
It's funny how pain can be the doorway
And love can be blindly stumbled into
All the scales fell off my eyes
The moment that I saw You
You read me like poetry
I guess what I'm trying to say is
You see me like nobody else does
And now I see it too
I didn't know a different story
I was just living what I knew
If You hadn't shown me something more I might've missed You
It's funny how pain can be the doorway
And love can be blindly stumbled into
All the scales fell off my eyes
The moment that I saw You
Eyes wide, brighter than the blue sky
It's like seeing for the first time
Eyes wide, brighter than the blue sky
It's like seeing for the first time
I didn't know a different story
I was just living what I knew
If You hadn't shown me something more I might've missed You
It's funny how pain can be the doorway
And love can be blindly stumbled into
All the scales fell off my eyes
The moment that I saw You
Oh
The moment that I saw You
Hey
Yeah, the moment that I saw You
I might've missed You
Eyes wide, brighter than the blue sky
It's like seeing for the first time
