Tourniquet - Where Moth And Rust Destroy lyrics

[Words & Music - Kirkpatrick] [Matthew 6: 19, Luke 16:33] The world is quick to tell us The media compels us For me to have and you to not Is the difference in our lot If you must compound your joy Then you must acquire this toy Just remember this - a kiss is just a kiss A smile is just a smile The things you own will not atone Or spare you from the life you've sown Where moth and rust destroy A land of tears and sadness When those who put their faith in things Find out it's only madness Enjoy all that He gives you But make sure you can see through The haze that blocks the clarity Of seeing the eternity Of things that last and things that don't Of choices we should make, but won't If you will just incline your ear There is something you must hear Heed his words and you'll be free From loving more than Me Where moth and rust destroy A land of tears and sadness When those who put their faith in things Find out it's only madness Choose - you must choose You must choose Who you serve Just waiting in the darkened wings The voice that says to trust in things Aspire to acquire - aspire to acquire Light the sacrificial fire d**h to things
