loving things like you has wrecked my life,
made me cry,
loving things like you has made me lose
my mind
and i cant figure out why ive been hanging on
to all these things ive tried to leave behind me for so long

and i think its time to find a better way to live my life
than loving all those things that keep me wrapped so tight

cause everyone wants everyone elses eveything
sometimes the more we have the less we really gain
and im tired of loving all that money has to buy
get out of my heart, out of my mind, im leaving you behind
get out of my heart, out of my mind, im leaving you behind

loving things like you has left me bruised
black and blue,
loving thigns like you has made me
so confused
and i cant figure out what ive been waiting on
God i can't be living life for things i know are wrong

now i think its time to write a better chapter in my life,
leaving all those things that keep me wrapped so tight,

cause everyone wants everyone elses everything,
sometimes the more we have the less we really gain,
and im tired of loving all that money has to buy,
get out my heart, out of my mind, im leaving you behind

why are we obsessed with possesions here on earth,
go and take a look at the flowers and the birds,
God is always taking care of nature's every need,
and how much more important in the Father's eyes are we,
i said how much more important in the Father's eyes are we

he sees everything

everyone wants everyone elses everything,
sometimes the more we have the less we really gain,
and im tired of loving all that money has to buy,
get you out of my heart, out of my mind, im leaving you behind,
get you out of my heart, out of my mind, im leaving you behind,
out of my heart, out of my mind, im leaving you behind
