How many breaths and moments wasted
While I sit here wasted on all the things
That stumble up my feet
Look how the wave it rises
Collapsing on the sand
It's crushing the castles
I've spend a lifetime
Building on my own
And when the moment passes
And the shadow is creeping by
I hold on to truth by a strand of the rope
That is anchored to my soul
I have I have an intercessor
I have an inheritance in you
You
When I'm treading in confusion
And the flame dwindles to a spark
And I run from these prisons
That are held in the corners
Of the rooms inside my heart
When every friend and partner
Has washed their hands in the dirt
And the loneliness chokes me
Provokes me
Until I remember the words he spoke
I have I have an intercessor
I have an inheritance in you
You
I'm clinging to this promise
Like a dancer to a song
I remember these days are as moments
And from death to life I've come
