lyrics

I'm deleting Facebook
I don't wanna stare
Into the dead eyes of
A world in desperate disrepair
I'm chasing the shadows
Of all my old friends
Living the lives
That they have displayed
To those looking in
I can't run from
Time
And I can't hide
From my pictures
On display
On the internet’s endless windowpane
Lord please explain
This newfangled 21st century kind of pain

I'm spinning in circles
Adrift in a time
Where nothing makes sense
And the biblical texts don’t line up with their lies
I'm searching for meaning
The same as us all
I just don't seek the small comforts
Of blending right in with the wall
I can't run from
Time
And I can't hide
All our stories
Are the same
Just beginnings with middles and ends and some love in between
So try to refrain
From this newfangled 21st century kind of pain

Carve out a living
Chasing all of your dreams
Once you dive in the water ain't quite as deep as it seems

But I can't run
From time
But I can try
And we can't run
From life
And you can't hide
From a world in
Full display
Jesus give us the power to focus on what we can change
And try to refrain
From this newfangled 21st century kind of pain
Just run away
From this newfangled 21st century kind of pain
Things gonna change
From this newfangled 21st century kind of pain
