lyrics

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Her deep sea green eyes see that ocean blue
She loves her hometown but wants an ocean view
A shack on the sand would nicely do
She smiles in the day, but happy nights are few.

She works late to get paid waiting tables for tips
She dreams of leaving this place she’s planning her trips
Far from content, distant from joy
Can’t find what she wants in any man or boy.

So she toys with the notion that there’s no hope
Doses off to tv after lighting a smoke
About to croak, dying by design
Her mind stays awake all night and won’t recline.

Thoughts invade and raid and choices are made
Pain shows his ugly face through that razor blade
He craves attention and she’s willing to give it
She only has one life but she’s scared to live it.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

He wakes up alone smelling like an ashtray
And he needs the needle before he starts his day
Can’t find his way, losing direction
When It comes to GOD’s love he feels like the exception.

That it wasn’t really ever even meant for him
Wishing that a single sign would be sent to him
Tears cascade down his face as he prays:
GOD why’d you have to make me this way?

Why are things so wrong? It’s the same old song
I go to the youth group but I don’t belong
‘Cause I have a past and I fight addiction
Tried to talk to some people but no one listens

They brush me off, frost-bitten shoulder
This tunnel is dark and I’m getting colder
Wishing I was older and past all this
Then maybe so-called saints would look past all this!

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

You see my heart bleeds for the broken hearted
For those on their own far from where they started
Renegades, runaways, and the faith departed
Outcasts, left-out, and always forgotten.

And for those who hate church all because of the people
There’s no one like my GOD He has no equal
Though a pastor might fail and forget your name
GOD knows the hairs on your head, and He built your frame

Loves you the same, yesterday—today
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus doesn’t change
So let him replace all of those who’ve wronged you
Spend each moment with you, yes He longs to.

Hold you so close through those lonely nights
But you take hold He only invites
He’s a gentle man and won’t force His hand
But you can see from the start that you’ve been in His plan.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
