God-Shaped Hole

Another short-lived love affair
Evaporates into thin air
And you take up the same search again
So get your headphone fix
Throw some new things in the mix
And pray you find a better friend

What if these things are not the answer
With all the questions they can bring
What will help you find your way back home?
And tell me how will you be dancing
When there are no songs left to sing
And all that's left is just a God-shaped hole?

A God-shaped hole in all of us
No matter where we place our trust
The puzzle pieces just don't fit, they never fit
A God-shaped hole in you and me
No matter who we try to be
There's always something that we miss

Cos all this music that you're hearing, it's only moving air
So ask yourself just what it is that makes every little hair
Stand up on the back of your neck, reality check
Are you connecting to that something that's as high as you get?
You could be climbing up the ladder while you waste time on the ground

A God-shaped hole in all of us
No matter where we place our trust
'Cos He can give and take away
And what remains?
A God-shaped hole in everyone
The struggle's only just begun
And I don't know when I'll be done

Cos we need something, we need meaning
Chasing nothing, empty dreaming
So much potential, hidden in you

Ain't tryna fill it with no magazine
Ain't tryna fill it with no big pipe dream
Ain't tryna fill it with no cigarette
Ain't tryna fill it with no tv set
Ain't tryna fill it with no glass of wine
I ain't tryna kill it with no overtime
I try to fill a little day by day
Put in to action all the words we say

'Cos we need something
