[Intro: Holler Shakers instrumental motif] [Verse 1: Bubba, mature male] I told myself I wasn't hurting And pushed the feeling down the hall But silence isn't always healing If I'm afraid to feel at all [Chorus: Bubba with Darlene, unmistakably female harmony] Am I letting go or hiding Am I resting or dividing What I know from what I feel From the wounds I need to heal Lord, help me meet the truth with grace And give my sorrow breathing space [Verse 2: Darlene, female] I don't have to feed the story Or pretend the tears don't rise I can hold a hard emotion Without letting it decide my life [Bridge: Bubba and Darlene duet] Let the feeling pass like weather Let the truth stand like a tree Let me be both brave and tender [Final chorus: full band duet] Am I letting go or hiding Am I resting or dividing What I know from what I feel From the wounds I need to heal Lord, help me meet the truth with grace And give my sorrow breathing space [Outro: instrumental answer and resolved final chord]
