Filter Veil

You've kept that veil on for far too long

And your sight is blinded to approaching da-awn

You want to see but through your filter you can hide

And keep it all on the inside

You've mourned the loss of your childhood

You'd bring it back if you knew you cou-ould

You want to be but through your drama you can hide

And keep it all on the inside

Well you won't tell anybody 'bout the way you feel

And you've always gotta question 'bout the time you ste-eal

If you'd look to Him, y'know He'd finally set you free

But then where would your filter be?

You've kept that veil on for far too long

And your sight is blinded to approaching da-awn

You want to see but through your filter you can hide

And keep it all on the inside

You've tried to be there for your little boy

And though your love's there you're still losing joy-oy

You want to be but through your drama you can hide

And keep it all on the inside

Well you won't tell anybody 'bout the way you feel

And you've always gotta question 'bout the time you ste-eal

If you'd look to Him, y'know He'd finally set you free

But then where would your filter be?

O-Oh where would your filter be?

He says:

I'm giving me to you

C'mon I'll pull you through

We're takin' off that veil

And finally see what's real

We're gonna finally see what's real-

Well you're gonna tell somebody 'bout the way you feel

And you're gonna say you're sorry 'bout the time you ste-eal

'Cause you looked to Him and He finally set you free

Yes He finally set you free-

Well you're gonna tell somebody 'bout the way you feel

And you're gonna say you're sorry 'bout the time you ste-eal

'Cause you looked to Him and He finally set you free

Now your eyes can look and

See the beauty in your life

Free from anger, free from strife

You've let down your veil

And without filters you now can see-

A love that finally lets you be-

Well you've gotta tell somebody 'bout the way you feel

And you're gonna keep on singin', there's no time to ste-eal

'Cause you looked to Him and He finally set you free

Yes He finally set you free-
