(VERSE ONE) Time tells more than we want to wait for, We always want more, but we steal from the store, Open sores, meaningless metaphors, Dreaming of vacations on foreign shores, Before the ship goes down in flames, Distraction’s all it takes to derail the train, The pressure of it all can drive one insane, Only Christ can supply resource to land the plane, Without Christ we’re just some regular people, Frail and broken and susceptible to evil, Kids throwing’ blows and starting’ fights with their boys, That’s just another plot to come and destroy. Why exchange the truth of God for a lie? You’d rather give up than try, and scream at the night sky. You expect everyone around you to accept what you do. Look the other way while your lie becomes true! (CHORUS) Just a few thoughts to get your mind thinking, Drop a little vision to get your eyes blinking, Truth and lie division, cutting with precision, Making an incision toward your decision, (VERSE TWO) Soon as someone says something’ contrary to belief, You scream that ignorance be defeated in the street! Like that’s the only stance that possibly makes sense, You start rumors at the oppositions expense. Just because you think one way doesn’t mean we have to, You expect us to adopt what you consider to be truth, Ignorance and tolerance are on the tip of your tongue, From the old to the young, the fabric is coming undone, In and of ourselves we are far from being holy, Feelin’ like the ways of the world try to control me, Doing all we can to get things to please us, It’s hard to break free unless we rely on Jesus, This world is spinning head first into hell fire, Following every fleshly and carnal desire, It’s coming down to the wire and we’re stuck in the Mire, We’re stacking the wood to our own funeral pyre. (CHORUS) Just a few thoughts to get your mind thinking, Drop a little vision to get your eyes blinking, Truth and lie division, cutting with precision, Making an incision toward your decision, (VERSE THREE) When we’re alone by ourselves and left with our thoughts, The details of existence pull us in to get lost, The frost of isolation and the heat of self hatred, Cause the pain we feel. Roll over and play dead, Ignore what’s going on inside for as long as we can, Only let it come out when life begins to hit the fan, Don’t take a stand because it’s easier to fold, If you take the safe route there’s no need to act bold, If you can concentrate your attention on things that don’t matter, You can collect more dust and eat more junk and get fatter, Then when you’re life is over you’ve done nothing, No overcoming, leading life that’s unbecoming, You’re whole view is soul numbing and needs an overhaul, You did a belly-flop thinking that it was a cannonball. Time is of the essence, ain’t too late to take control, Sift through the crap and let Christ break your mold. (CHORUS) Just a few thoughts to get your mind thinking, Drop a little vision to get your eyes blinking, Truth and lie division, cutting with precision, Making an incision toward your decision
