I Regress

So I tried to do my best
 In a tattered wedding dress
 And I'm telling you I'm blessed
 But reluctant to confess
 That I regress
 I regress
 And I'm telling you I'm saved
 But still hold on to those days
 While pretending I'm unscathed
 I still sing the same refrain
 But I regress
 I regress
 ♪
 So I'm waiting on those words
 That will make me want to turn
 Against the patterns I have learned
 Against the status I have earned
 But I regress
 I regress
 I regress
 I regress
 ♪
 As we're headed to that place
 That dress gets whiter every day
 Mend the tears and sew the lace
 Calm my fears and show me grace
 Or I regress
 I regress
 I regress
 I regress
 ♪
 Grant me, Lord, what I can't afford
 To be made right, to be restored
 Take not thy spirit from my chest
 Or I regress
 Or I regress
 Grant me, Lord, what I can't afford
 To be made right, to be restored
 Take not thy spirit from my chest
 Or I regress
 Or I regress
 Grant me, Lord, what I can't afford
 To be made right, to be restored
 Take not thy spirit from my chest
 Or I regress
 Or I regress
 Oh, draw me near
 Or I regress
