(oooh) Behind the velvet ropes
I wore a golden mask
Living a life of whispers in a hollow glass
But the perfume fades,
the makeup starts to run
Standing in the cold light of a rising sun
Wash away the stains of yesterday (wash them clean) Lord,
I'm down here on my knees to pray
Take this heavy heart,
break these gilded chains Let Your grace fall down like summer rain
(fall down on me)
They called me beautiful,
but I felt so cold
Selling away the pieces
of a weary soul
Now I am reaching out to the holy sky
No more running away,
no more hiding behind the lie
Oh, the road was dark,
but the light is near I can feel the warmth chasing away
my fear (I feel it
now) Grace is finding me,
setting me free (hallelujah)
Wash away the stains of yesterday
(wash them clean, yeah) Lord,
I'm down here on my knees to pray
Take this heavy heart,
break these gilded chains
Let Your grace fall down like summer rain
(sweet rain, wash me)
I am washed clean (hallelujah,
I am free) Under Your grace
