Lyrics

PURPOSE

When I was younger
I looked for heroes
Someone who knew the world
Better than me
I told my brother
He was my hero
Probably the last thing
He wanted to be

He had a fire raging in his fearless eyes
Every word he spoke rang so true
I thought I’d found my purpose
Till I realized
Some things heroes can’t do

As I grew older
I looked for lovers
For the one true passion
I could find
When I found her
She was all I dreamed of
And she promised me
That she was mine

She had a fire raging in her loving eyes
Every word she spoke rang so true
I thought I’d found my purpose
Till I realized
Some things lovers can’t do

And It took me down
It took me so far down
There was nothing left to do

So I knelt down
And prayed to heaven
For a guiding hand
To lead the way
I want an answer
I need a savior
I’ve got to hear the things
He has to say

I felt a fire raging in my tired eyes
Every dream I had came so true
I heard a soft voice tell me
“Damn it, open up your eyes.
Some things saviors can’t do.
You know it’s all up to you”
