Gave my gold to Aaron
In the winter of my discontent
Melted down Your blessings
Got manmade by trading heavensent
I called it progress once
Now I shake my head in disbelief
To think I'd leave the one true God
For a piece of shiny beef
Chorus:
It's idol curiousity that gets me every time
The suspicion that the vomit I rejected tastes divine
While I'm dreaming that I'm gaining
My love for You is waning
As I miss out on the blessings You provide
Always chasing a lie
Danced around the statue
Heaping empty words upon a stone
Praises to this creature
Begging hope that You can give alone
I raised my hands before
But that was when I thought You weren't enough
That fantasy I dashed upon the only
Rock who's worthy of my love
Chorus
Looking in the mirror made me realize
That I become the image of all I idolize
With a heart as cold as stone
And a life as cheap as gold
A life that's not sold out for You will fold
Chorus
Always chasing a lie
Why oh why
