Dreams For Sale Lyrics
Out here it's live and learn So you can rush and earn A piece of this pie It's work today and rest tomorrow But it's never tomorrow Until we die We strive to find contentment And so we often miss it When it's knocking at the door We're too busy to open up Busy with other stuff So we go on as before
Like a pencil you hold dear But you lost behind your ear You won't find it 'cause it's already here You can't see it with those Eyes so tightly closed It's right here in front of your nose
What are we fighting for? Are the spoils of war All they're meant to be? We strive for 401K But we could make a trade For eternity Put down those papers Put down that phone Put down those fake diamonds and imposter cologne Yes, there's contentment No, it's not free You have to lay down your anxiety (I Peter 5:7)
Like a pencil you hold dear But you lost behind your ear You won't find it 'cause it's already here You can't see it with those Eyes so tightly closed It's right here in front of your nose If you're trying to end change You're wishing for the grave This is the flux of things In the rain you will get wet And there is trouble yet (John 16:33) This is how we pay our debt
Running past the thing you want It was always here You just closed your eyes and couldn't see it Open your eyes You'll see it's here But you can't chase this world and find contentment
It has a face, it has a name Jesus Christ What if I told you You could live forever If you'd lay it all down? What if I told you You could live forever? Just lay it down
