Song Lyrics

"Meaningless Things"

by Adam Watts
Album: The Noise Inside

It is a l-ie if it freezes your soul
You can chase an attractive wind when it bl-ows
But if you can st-ay, in the light and let flesh be lone-ly
Cries become praise for the Lord

~Chorus~
We can be k-ings, of meaningless
th-ings
Or we can be sl-aves, of l-ove
We can be k-ings, of fallen th-ings
Or we can be sl-aves of l-ove
Willing sl-aves of l-ove

Our eyes are w-ide and our ears hear it all
Can we filter the whole wide world through a sm-all string of thoughts

We're living today, on the heels of the failing theory
That we all die so we should live it
u-p

~Chorus~

A cry of love a cry of pain's enough
To leave us tr-ying to find something our hands can touch to numb the day
A thousand things will not cure weakness
Only a f-all to grace
A turn to the face of the L-ord

We can be k-ings, of meaningless
th-ings
Or we can be sl-aves, of l-ove
We can be k-ings, of fallen th-ings
Or willing sl-aves of l-ove
~Chorus~

Ooo-ooo ooo ooo-ooo
