I don't wanna die
but i sometimes i can't stand this life
where is the fire
the fire i was waiting for?
Daily grind
nothing changes
every sunday
the same sermons
tons of books
about visions
but reality
seems so different
i once had a dream
to see gods beauty everywhere
i once had a dream
to lose all fear and start to dare
i once had a dream
to see smilin' the broken ones
i once had a dream
the kids might know that there's another chance
but
we are stuck in our habits
work, church, hobbies, watching tv
while the real adventure with jesus christ
runs through our hands like sand - why don't we see
