[C]
[D]
[Bm] I can't always rely on my desires,
[D] but I treat them like a messiah.
[Bm]
[D]
[G] [D]
[B] Whatever it is that gives that feeling that we can't live [G] without,
the joys we try to get that only God can give, we highly [B] doubt.
What allures and arouses the heart we can't figure out,
but [G] it's the quickest way to account for what we prize and are most proud [Em] about.
These God's promises, but always lie to us,
[G] the kind of lies that says they'll keep us safe and satisfy us.
[B] We blame the lies outside of us, but it's the lie that lies [G] inside
that captures the depths of desires and false [B] messiahs.
We seek pleasure in anything, we [D] overestimate everything,
endlessly trusting an empty entity, [E] secretly searching for anything,
in moments of blessing while [Dm] exiting edicts of Eden over our ecstasy.
[B] When a good God gives good gifts, we generally tend to twist the list,
and [G] take the list of good gifts that God tends to give and make general calls on it.
[B] I suppose what exposes the worship in most of us is [G] a close look at most of our thoughts, [Bm] fears, and emotions.
[Em] [E] No matter what I [D] do, I can't ever make it last.
[A] I just repeat my past, I'm so broken.
[E] So much I thought I knew, [A] all the things that I pursued, [D] I'm [A] worse off than before.
[G]
[Bm] I can't always rely on my desires, [D] but I treat them like I'm a messiah.
[Bm] I can't always rely on my desires, [D] [G] but [D] I treat them like I'm a messiah.
[B] The saddest fact is that I search for [G] satisfaction, as if I lack it when in fact I lack nothing.
[B] That's the reason for my lackluster prayer life and my lust [G] for distractions.
It's so easy to see in [Em] hindsight, I must confess it's the mess I acknowledge
[G] when I'm stalling on my responsibilities and don't [B] apologize but make excuses.
Like my physical exhaustion [G] is a license for narcissism and speaking recklessly [B] without caution.
I often wonder why I'm so [D] awkward in conversations, wishing I could switch places,
envious [E] of others, but my envy is a reflect of my [Dm] ignorance,
cause I don't know the details of their daily existence, [B] I just assume.
The weight I carry is the heaviest, [G] but I've never been a heavyweight.
My legs get heavy [B] when I wait, hope deferred so I prefer the immediate
[G] and exchange the true God [Bm] for what seems more expedient, it's meaningless.
I can't always rely on my desires, [D] but I treat them [G] like I'm a messiah.
[Bm] I can't always rely on my desires, [D] but I treat [G] them like I'm a messiah.
[D] Help us not be haste when it comes to temporal [G] blessings
and always see them for what they're actually meant to be.
[D] A mere extension of your loving kindness [G] extended to an undeserved humanity.
Help us not [D] see greater value in the gifts you give
and not become [G] distracted from their [E] intended desires.
[D] May we regard the world and all that is in it as nothing compared to the [G] satisfaction of knowing our Messiah.
[D]
