I�m in a fix
Need something quick
My mind is numb
My stomach sick
Broken hearts
Hopeless things
I�ve seen what defiance brings
Cause the light of day
I�ve always known
Is in my heart
I�m not alone
CHORUS
Speak to me
And tell me all the things I need to know
I want to hear You now
Can You speak to me
I�ve opened up Your Word to free me
I want to hear You now
It�s amazing
How I forget
Can�t live my life for
Lack of it
But the light of day
I�ve always known
Is in my heart
I�m not alone
CHORUS
And make Your wisdom clear
The words I hold so dear
Bring light into my dark
I hide them inside my heart
I hide them inside my heart
Speak to me
And tell me all the things I need to know
I want to hear You now
Can You
CHORUS

Behind the Song:'This is about wanting to hear from God in a real way � in your darkest times and even in the times when you�re doing okay. It�s a great message to young people and old people alike, to really take time to hear God speak. Musically, this song completely changed from the demo we�d originally recorded. We added strings and horns, and it�s really one of the musical high points of the album.' - Mark Stuart (
