Switchfoot The Day That I Found God song lyrics

The morning comes like an enemy soldier

I feel the weight across my shoulders

I feel the shadows getting colder

But that ain't you

This noose ain't getting any looser

I get so fearful bout the future

I hear the shame of my accuser

But that ain't you

And I found strength but it wasn't what I thought

And I found peace in the places I forgot

And I found riches ain't the things that I had bought

Yeah I found out the day I lost myself was the day that I found God

I get caught chasing my own illusions

And I get so lost in these confusions

I keep on looking for my own solutions

But that ain't you, that ain't you no

And my enemies weren't the ones that I had fought

And my liberties weren't the freedoms I had sought

And what I learned weren't the lessons I'd been taught

I found out the day I lost myself was the day that I found God

Where is God out in the darkness?

Cuz the voices in my head ain't talking honest

Saying maybe he made us then forgot us

But that ain't you, that ain't you, no

And all I know is that I still don't know a lot

I don't know how it ends, I'm in the middle of this plot

I found grace for the man that I am not

Yeah I found out the day I lost myself

Yeah I found out the day I lost myself

Yeah I found out the day I lost myself was the day that I found God
