I've got a long long long ways to go. Man I surely hope the lord can save my soul. I have been baptized in a sea of emptiness and the waves are crashing in.
Verse 2:
When I started all the undone expectations in my mind is when I found that I've been wasting all my energy and time; chasing things that clearly don't belong at all inside my life... Man, it's hard to cry when you've been baptized in a sea of emptiness and the waves are crashing in. Oh lord they're crashing in, they're crashing in, oh they're crashing in.
Bridge:
Greed, money, society, a sea of emptiness.
Hunger, homelessness, technology used as fancy gifts, a sea of emptiness... And the waves are crashing, they're crashing down, crashing down.
Verse 3:
Who am I to question the status quo, I say I want change but when a man asks me for some I say no. I hope we understand that our days in the sun are like an hour glass with sand, it might break. Don't you wait to start walking cuz you've got many miles to go. Man, I hope the lord can save my soul cuz I've been baptized in a sea of emptiness and the waves are crashing in.
