DENIAL

All my life I’ve been in Egypt on the Nile
Afraid to swim
Thinkin’ that I might just drown

Now here I am, all grown up now
Still holdin’ on
One day the boat gon’ sink
And take me down

One thing I know for sure is that I’m getting strong
My vision is blurred
But these demons will move on

I gotta find a way to face my fears head-on
Or
These demons surely will not leave me alone

I heard somebody say:
Denial — is more than just a river
If you think it’s just a river
You’ll be in that river without a boat

Denial — is not your average river
It can conquer any quiver
And your demons will deliver
your soul into that river and never float

I may not know the time of day or day of week
But I know the love of God will keep me strong
Better done than said, the lies still hurt
You did me wrong
I knew you’d find a way into this song

The pain and tears – I hide
I cry at night alone
The quest for love has gone on much too long

I gotta find a way to face my fears head-on
Or
These demons surely will not leave me alone

Denial is much too deep to swim
You’ll drown for sure
Face your fears
You’ll find that boat don’t float…forever
