Indifference to recognition
A fruit that comes from humility
That asks for no commission
Nothing in return, no hidden fees
For simple acts that help you heal
That give you time to help you feel
That you are loved in a way that's real
A care so selfless, it seems surreal
Spread thin from all the times that I said yes
I long to see you function at your best
And I will serve even at my own expense
And I'll stay though the sun now dips down west
The sacrifice of my time
The rearrangement of priorities
The sense of self left behind
The joy that comes when your mind's at ease
Internal conflict from saying no
So I do what I can so you feel known
The longing to lighten your load
Do what I can so you can grow
Spread thin from all the times that I said yes
I long to see you function at your best
And I will serve even at my own expense
And I'll stay though the sun now dips down west
Like a tree and its leaves that lend its shade
Like a melting candle maintains its flame
And I find my purpose serving everyday
Woah
My love is shown in sacrificial ways
And I'm spread thin from all the times that I said yes
But I'll still serve even at my own expense
