What I'm Looking For

(album: Everyday God - 2005)

My heart feels so empty, and my soul is so dry
How can life be so heavy when there's nothing inside
I have searched 'till I'm worn out, I have looked everywhere
For my place of contentment and a reason to care
God, tell me if You're really there

'Cause I've been all the places, I've seen all the faces
I haven't found what I live for
And I've played all the games and they all seem the same
I'm looking for something more
Are You what I'm looking for... oh, are You what I'm looking for

I have painted the smile on my unhappy face
And I've laughed like a child, but I feel out of place
And my life is just skin-deep, and my music's all gone
Who will bring me a melody? Who will give me new songs?
God, tell me if You're the One

(Are you what...) I'm looking for inside of me?
Are You the air that I can breathe?
Are You the path that leads me to a smile?
Oh, when everything inside of me tells me that it's You I need
You stand there with arms open wide, and with tears in my eyes I let down my pride,
'cause You're what I'm looking for

'Cause I've been all the places, I've seen all the faces
And now I know just what I live for
And I've played all the games, oh, but You're not the same
And now I am looking no more
I've found what I'm looking for... I've found what I'm looking for...
