The Wager - Forevermore

Eternity awaits me

And I know that we’re all broken vessels

Trying to find our way in life

To the ends of the earth

I’ve searched high and low to no avail

My time was wasted

Why did I ever place my faith

In things that couldn’t save me?

(Couldn't save me)

Everything was all for nothing

Every breath I took in vain

Everything was all for nothing

Empty words that hold no weight

And now I understand (and now I understand)

That it was all in vain

Here I kneel before my Maker reaching for words

Reaching for words

Ears to hear and eyes to see

But never comprehending

Ears to hear and eyes to see

But never understanding

(Eternity awaits me

And I know that we’re all broken vessels

Trying to find our way in life

Eternity awaits me)

Why did I ever place my faith

In things that couldn’t save me?

(Couldn't save me)

Everything was all for nothing

Every breath I took in vain

Everything was all for nothing

Empty words that hold no weight

Time stands still

I’m running out of breath

Everything around me breathes, except for me
