Chasing Wind

I had heard that freedom was found inside Your eyes
But away from You I turned
Instead of peace I went to war
Sold the truth for a few cheap lies
The time bomb ticked, my stomach turned

Child of wrath, a son of death, king atop my lonely hill
I fought to be Your enemy
Withhold nothing, eat your fill
The kings around me dined and swilled
"This is yours all you can see"

Under the moon, under the sky lie
A million different tries to get my happiness to stay
With every dollar that I spent
With every pleasure from my sin
Feels like I'm just chasing wind
Oh just chasing wind
Oh just chasing wind

My well of fortune dried to dust
As I exhausted every lust
The crown fell off this pauper's head
Cellars full of finest wine traded in for meals with swine
All hail the broken king

Under the moon, under the sky lie
A million different tries to get my happiness to stay
With every dollar that I spent
With every pleasure from my sin
Feels like I'm just chasing wind
Oh just chasing wind
Oh just chasing wind

Your voice found me far way, bloody hands empty soul
I heard a distant melody
Son come home, son come here
Let not worry turn to fear
Dry your eyes and come home

Under the moon, under the sky lie
A million different tries to get my happiness to stay
With every dollar that I spent
With every pleasure from my sin
Feels like I'm just chasing wind
Oh just chasing

Under the moon, under the sky lie
A million different tries to get my happiness to stay
But Your daylight's broken in
Destroying darkness held within
Now I'll never chase the wind
Waste my time just chasing wind
Oh just chasing wind
