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