Dirty Mess

They say, "diamonds are forever"
Well, I say, "only time will tell"
They say, "money makes you happy"
I'm not buying what they sell

Oh, 'cause beauty, fame, and fortune
How they sparkle to the eye
And fireworks burn brightly
'Till they fall out of the sky

Don't wanna live for something temporary
I set my sights on eternity (oh-oh-oh-oh)
A world of blessed things shines before me
But there's a difference between (difference between)
Glitter and glory (glitter, glitter, glory, glory)
(Glitter, glitter) Yeah (glory, glory)

Someone see their name in neon
Think they finally got it made (but there always comes a moment)
But there always comes a moment (When they watch it, they watch it)
When they watch it fade away

I've seen power and possessions
Take an inch, then take control
Don't wanna gain the whole world
But lose my soul

Don't wanna live for something temporary (I set my sights on)
I set my sights on eternity (oh-oh-oh-oh)
A world of blessed things shines before me (But there's a difference)
But there's a difference between (difference between)
Glitter and glory (glitter, glitter, glory)

You're the treasure I seek (glitter)
You're all that I need (glory, glory)
God, help me to see (glitter, glitter)
A difference between (glitter, glitter, glory)
Glitter and glory
Oh!

Don't wanna live for something temporary
I set my sights on eternity (eternity)
A world of blessed things shines before me (But there's a difference)
But there's a difference between (difference between)
Glitter and glory (glitter, glory)
I don't want no(thing) else (glitter, glitter, glory, glory)
Glitter and glory (glitter)
I don't wanna live my life (glory)
I don't wanna live my life (glitter)
It's temporary (glitter, glory, glory)

There will always come a moment
When the glitter fades away
