i know tobey mac is no Handel or Watts... but ....

.... riding in the van with my family these lyrics struck me powerfully:

I keep trying to find a life
On my own, apart from you
I am the king of excuses
Ive got one for every selfish thing I do

Whats going on inside of me?
I despise my own behavior
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
That Im still a man in need of a savior

(chorus)I wanna be in the lightAs you are in the lightI wanna shine like the stars in the heavensOh, lord be my light and be my salvationCause all I want is to be in the lightAll I want is to be in the light

The disease of self runs through my blood
Its a cancer fatal to my soul
Every attempt on my behalf has failed
To bring this sickness under control

Tell me, whats going on inside of me?
I despise my own behavior
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
That Im still a man in need of a savior
