You remember well how you framed me
What you made me of and it was just dust
And you remember too, how you found me
Lost and drowning with faith just enough
To believe when you said you could love me
Take what was left and make it lovely
You could love me into something lovely
But I returned to dead and I failed you
Went and fell through on everything I said
But seeing me approach, even knowing where I've been
You say you're glad to have me home again
With just one request
To believe when you say you can love me
Take what was left and make it lovely
You can love me into something lovely
But why would you?
What use could you possibly have for dust?
And why should you
When pain in the only thing I bring to the story of us
But if you say I could be better than this
Who am I to resist you
If you say someday I could be free
Who am I not to believe
When you say you can love me
Take what was left and make it lovely
'Cause you said you would love me
Take what I have left and make it lovely
You will love me into something lovely
You remember well how you framed me
What you made me of and it was just dust
