Vanity of Vanities

Though I hear and though my eyes can see
I'm not full, I'm not full
Though the wisdom of all me is in me
It's all dull, it's all dull

It's all grasping for the wind

Every pleasure has been touched by me
They're all gone, they're all dead
Even if I could gain the world
It's all toil that must end

It's all grasping for the wind

I hear your words like a passing train
I'm too concerned with life to jump in
I've turned my head off towards the edge
You call for me

I can't undo the things I've done to you
Against you have I sinned
I know you'd say my life could be made clean
This can't be, it can't be

It's all grasping for the wind

I hear your words like a passing train
I'm too concerned with myself to jump in
My head is facedown, stuck in my hands
You call for me
You're the just and the justifier
You lived the life I failed and you died
You're not a man that you should lie
You're God and I'm not

I won't turn back, It's out of my mind
This life is too short to live by my own might
I won't look back, You're all that I need
This moment defines who I am, who I'll be
In your eyes
