I've walked with the same old thoughts
Come haunting me while I'm wishing I'm back where I'm from
Excitement is good and all
But thinking back to a time when I'm home makes my heart beat like drums
Makeshift dreams and whispered prayers
Make wondering an option that's hard to resist
I wish life did not go by
When you're somewhere else think of all of the parts that I've missed
You can build me up and you can break me down
And you can beat my frame until I hit the ground
You can break my limbs and you can break my bones
And you can break my heart but you can't take my soul (Soul)
Oh, I'm here on earth do what you want with me
Since I'm not alone what can man do to me
I'm a mortal man and I'm born to die
But when morning dawns I'll be raised to life
I heard a call far away
That took my soul and turned my whole little life upside down
A call whispered deep inside
The voice of a king, king of heaven and earth ever crowned
It took my heart soul and mind
Even though it was not my decision to make
And now there's no turning back
I'm drafted in and there's no more decisions to take
I'm just a passerby in a dark and lonely world
Gonna see if I can light it up have this whole darkness thing twirled
One moment I am here the next I will be gone
It's night now on this darkened world but very soon it will be dawn
