"High Standards" lyrics

You'll never be
The man they want you to be
You've got no goals in life
it don't make since to see
Someone forgotten
Someone you used to know
Is there a reason no one seems to care?

No one can give you the life you get
What He said was true and I'll never forget
His son, the sacrifice
Now I owe Him my life
Give your life to God
Come into His light

Don't let the world own you with its false analogies of what a happy life looks like and why you don't add up
There's no happy ending to this impossibility
So, change your mind and give Him time
I'm sure you'd agree

They gave you heroes
Someone to look up to
You'll never be like them
No matter how hard you try
It's all superficial, a deceptive lie
I know you're getting tired
So, stop!

No one can give you the life you get
What He said was true and I'll never forget
His son the sacrifice
Now I owe Him my life
Give your life to God
Come into His light

Don't let the world own you with its false analogies of what a happy life looks like and why you don't add up
There's no happy ending to this impossibility
So, change your mind and give Him time
I'm sure you'd agree
