lyrics

how could I ever believe
seeing the grandeur of this place
think this place was made for me
how could I ever believe
being born into this place
I'm not just a created being
when the the world does not conform
to my every whim I feel betrayed
because you are not listening
even when I was a baby
I laid claim with my cries
to the lordship of my life
I saw the setting and setting
and said this place was made for me
it turns out I am just the scenery

I have finally realized
it was never in your plan
to keep me alive
how could I boast and brag
about that
which you already laid down in death
I have finally realized
all the glory that's in me
is only your glory
all that I am all that I own
its got to be destroyed
come tear down this godless thrown

I have been living like a thief
on the things you made
you've given me it all
but I still try to take

what is there that isn't yours

I don't want to claim
your gifts as my own
I have never made a thing
only borrowed

What is there that isn't yours

I was born without a thing
I will die empty
what do I have that I can claim
there is nothing to my name

I have finally realized
it was never in your plan
to keep me alive
how could I boast and brag
about that
which you already laid down in death
I have finally realized
all the glory that's in me
is only your glory
all that I am all that I own
its got to be destroyed
come tear down this godless thrown

when I see your glory
I'll be on the ground
when you arrive
all my fake independence dies
I can see my nothingness
in the glory of your all
