State of Mind
by 38th Parallel

Album: Turn The Tides

I stand tall with an arrogant grin
Filled with pride as I chase the dreams that are riding on the wind
In ignorant determination, watch me pursue
They're not enough... They're not enough to
Satisfy the hunger pains of my soul
They are like fading mirages, illusions that leave me sold
To the truth that's the essence of me:
I'm not enough. I'm not enough.

So here I am
Broken on my knees, stretching out my weary hands
Grasp them and lift me, help me to find
A rest in Your arms that can change my state of mind

Stagger the Earth with one defeated sigh
I once was longing to live, now I'm longing to die
Having attained everything that I desired
Was not enough... Not enough to
Quench the thirst for hope, for life and peace
Captive to my pride, now I beg for sweet release
And then a voice breathes and whispers to my soul:
"I am enough, I am enough."

So here I am
Broken on my knees, stretching out my weary hands
Grasp them and lift me, help me to find
A rest in Your arms that can change my state of mind
Right now, I wanna stand
Secure in Your embrace, and walking hand in hand
Resolute to know You, as I find
A rest in Your arms that can change my state of mind

Set my awkward steps straight in line
Move me to walk this life
With Your hand in mine

So here I am
Broken on my knees, stretching out my weary hands
Grasp them and lift me, help me to find
A rest in Your arms that can change my state of mind
Right now, I wanna stand
Secure in Your embrace, and walking hand in hand
Resolute to know You, as I find
A rest in Your arms that can change my state of mind
