I sit at night anxiously filling my time
With nothing important or pressing to do
It seems my life is wasted
Time better spent and more prepared
There is but one thing matters
One thing that should hold my focus
But instead I push it down and move around
No no I don't have time tonight
This show is on, I need to make a comment
We munch on snacks hoping to fill the emptiness
We compare and judge others so we can feel great
Our attitude is better than theirs so we know we're safe
We must be able to accomplish it all, hurry, don't be late
We expect perfection and it's okay to complain
As long as we fit in
Don't shine your light or stand out, no one likes a show off
Your life isn't perfect so why do you wear a smile
Be like us, act like you have it all, tired with no hope
We like to pretend and we'll be your friend til the end
We love the stuff that can make us happy
Spend while you can, you deserve it anyways
No one appreciates you so why not
God couldn't love me, if He's seen what I've done
I don't like myself, I don't like anyone, I feel so alone
I try and try but still I'm empty inside
God doesn't even know me, so why would He care
But He does love you, He wants you as you are
He loves you more than you could ever know
He's been with you since before you were born
The emptiness you feel
Is the longing to have Jesus in your heart
You just have to invite Him in
His Kingdom is your inheritance
His forgiveness came with a cost,
Salvation can be ours
Because Jesus did His part
With nothing important or pressing to do
It seems my life is wasted
Time better spent and more prepared
There is but one thing matters
One thing that should hold my focus
But instead I push it down and move around
No no I don't have time tonight
