I clung to miracles I have not seen
From ancient autographs I can not read
And though I've repented I'm still tempted I admit
But it's not what bearing witness is
Too full of fear and prophecy to see
The revelation right in front of me
So sick and tired of trying to make the pieces fit
Because it's not what bearing witness is
When the gap between
What I hoped would be
And what is makes me weep for my kids
I take a cleansing breath and make a positive confession
But is that what bearing witness is
Though it may alienate your family
And blur the lines of your identity
Let go of what you know and honor what exists
Son that's what bearing witness is
Daughter that's what bearing witness is
