MercyMe - The Attic lyrics
[MercyMe - The Attic lyrics]
Ten years old, you're walking down the aisle
You let God in and it's totally in style
Where years have come and gone
And so did your courage
You put God in a box and
You threw Him in storage
When you can't find what you're looking for
And your heart's been screaming
For more and more
When you search so long you can't even stand
And the way back home is the Father's hand
Your heart says less, your head says more
And in between is where you're torn
Trace your steps to where you were before
Yeah the right idea was yours from page one
But through time your vision has gone
Well God took the back seat
While your flesh started driving, yes He did
The world feels fine while the
Spirit Man is dying
When you can't find what you're looking for
And your heart's been screaming
For more and more
When you search so long you can't even stand
And the way back home is the Father's hand
Your heart says less, your head says more
And in between is where you're torn
Trace your steps to where
You were before, oh, oh
Lord, please, take over
Won't you deliver us?
How we long to get back to
The way that it was to the way that it was
To the way that it was, now, now
When you can't find what you're looking for
And your heart's been screaming
For more and more
When you search so long you can't even stand
And the way back home is the Father's hand
Your heart says less, your head says more
And in between is where you're torn
Trace your steps to where you were before
Oh, yeah, trace your steps now
You let God in and it's totally in style
Where years have come and gone
And so did your courage
You put God in a box and
You threw Him in storage
When you can't find what you're looking for
And your heart's been screaming
For more and more
When you search so long you can't even stand
And the way back home is the Father's hand
Your heart says less, your head says more
And in between is where you're torn
Trace your steps to where you were before
Yeah the right idea was yours from page one
But through time your vision has gone
Well God took the back seat
While your flesh started driving, yes He did
The world feels fine while the
Spirit Man is dying
When you can't find what you're looking for
And your heart's been screaming
For more and more
When you search so long you can't even stand
And the way back home is the Father's hand
Your heart says less, your head says more
And in between is where you're torn
Trace your steps to where
You were before, oh, oh
Lord, please, take over
Won't you deliver us?
How we long to get back to
The way that it was to the way that it was
To the way that it was, now, now
When you can't find what you're looking for
And your heart's been screaming
For more and more
When you search so long you can't even stand
And the way back home is the Father's hand
Your heart says less, your head says more
And in between is where you're torn
Trace your steps to where you were before
Oh, yeah, trace your steps now
