about

"Behold, all was vanity and a striving after the wind, and there was nothing to be gained under the sun."

lyrics

I try to make it go too fast
I'd rather be the first than last
But all of that is chasing after the wind

I'm too proud to say that i don't know
I'm glad you're not afraid to show
That all of this is chasing after the wind

Life begins
When we realize that
Freedom is a cage
Freedom is a cage

Give up everything
And realize
Freedom is a cage
Freedom is a cage

Give me everything in sight
Suddenly there's nothing nice
This is all a striving of the wind

Why is it so hard to let go
When you're the perfect thing for my soul
Its foolish to think I can catch the wind

Giving up all my hopes
Giving up all my dreams
So I can better follow my king

Life begins
When we realize that
Freedom is a cage
Freedom is a cage

Give up everything
And realize
Freedom is a cage
Freedom is a cage

Giving up all my hopes
Giving up all my dreams
So I can better follow my king
