[00:00.00]Lyrics:
[00:17.15]Spending my time sleep walking
[00:21.20]Moving my mouth but not saying a thing
[00:25.01]Hoping the changes would take by working their way from the outside in
[00:33.03]I was in love with an idea
[00:36.94]Preoccupied with how a life should appear
[00:40.74]Spending my time at the surface repairing the holes in the shiny veneer
[00:49.62]There are so many ways to hide
[00:53.48]There are so many ways not to feel
[00:57.51]There are so many ways to deny what is real
[01:03.93]And I just showed up for my own life
[01:11.78]And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright
[01:19.56]I'm going to live my life inspired
[01:23.23]Look for the holy in the common place
[01:26.95]Open the windows and feel all that's honest and real until I'm truly amazed
[01:34.88]I'm going to feel all my emotions
[01:38.77]I'm going to look you in the eyes
[01:42.71]I'm going to listen and hear until it's finally clear and it changes our lives
[01:51.60]There are so many ways to hide
[01:55.58]There are so many ways not to feel
[01:59.41]There are so many ways to deny what is real
[02:05.90]And I just showed up for my own life
[02:13.80]And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright
[02:22.16]Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
[02:31.12]Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
[02:52.15]And I just showed up for my own life
[03:00.01]And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright
[03:07.95]And I just showed up for my own life
[03:15.49]And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright
[03:24.00]Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
[03:31.28]Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
