I Confess (feat. Martin Östergren) [Acoustic Version]

I AM LOVE

I confess that I have never been entirely trustworthy

Because I have not been totally truthful about who I am

I have ducked, fudged, pretended and defended

I have been afraid and ashamed

I have projected and rejected

I sought outside for that which I am

I confess that I am love and I've always been

In spite of the veils, I wrapped myself in

I confess that I am love and have always been

In spite the veils, I wrapped myself in

I AM LOVE

I AM LOVE

I confess I have betrayed myself in the name of belonging

And then betrayed every group, and relationship, that I belonged to

If it prevented me from loving and belonging to all others

Chameleonlike I have blended into every environment

Hiding, waiting, gathering strength

This is the freeing of love

And the loving of freedom

I confess that I am love and I've always been

In spite of the veils, I wrapped myself in

I confess that I am love and have always been

In spite of the veils, I wrapped myself in

I AM LOVE

I AM LOVE

I am not an activist or a pacifist, a conservationist or a hedonist

I AM LOVE

I am not straight, gay, bisexual or transgender

I am neither monogamous, polyamorous, promiscuous, or celibate

I AM LOVE

I am not conservative or liberal, green, blue, or teal

I am not Muslim, Buddhist, Christian or Jew

This is the freeing of love and loving of freedom

I confess that I am love and I've always been

In spite of the veils, I wrapped myself in

I confess that I am love and have always been

In spite of the veils, I wrapped myself in

I AM LOVE

I AM LOVE

I AM LOVE

I AM LOVE
