|
Riding down the streets of envy, |
|
Looking for some recognition. |
|
That would make me really happy: |
|
If they desired my position. |
|
Prom-time princess, beauty queen; |
|
See all the admiring faces. |
|
Chasing after blind ambition, |
|
They don't see the King of Heaven's graces. |
|
'Cause what I want is you; |
|
What I need is truth. |
|
Will someone tell me that for a change? |
|
Nothing ever holds in a world lukewarm, |
|
So come and fill the empty space inside of me. |
|
Wish upon a falling star |
|
And dream of your perfection. |
|
It fades away held up against your failures |
|
And dying self-opinion. |
|
Beauty's on the late night TV, |
|
Showing off the next big thing. |
|
Turn it off ... I'm lost. |
|
I forgot who I was. |
|
Jesus, won't you tell me I'm worth something? |
