Chasing highs and perfect masks cannot heal the fracture. Wisdom lands where a Savior stands in our place and covers failure with an ocean of grace.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You've been chasing every high to find a spark
Trying to piece together broken pieces in the dark
Wearing a mask, keeping up the perfect presentation
Living in a cycle of exhausting emulation
You feel the weight of things you cannot right
Staring at the ceiling in the middle of the night
[Verse 2]
We try to save ourselves with everything we buy and build
But the deeper hunger inside never gets fulfilled
There's a fracture in the soul that good advice can't heal
A separation from the Maker that is heavy and real
We call it freedom, but we're bound by our own pride
Running from the only One who sees what's left inside
[Chorus]
But there is a Savior who stood in your place
To cover every failure with an ocean of grace
We couldn't reach up to heaven, so He came down to us
To break the chains of guilt and restore our trust
It's not a list of rules to make you look brand new
It's a cross, it's an empty tomb, it's Jesus dying for you
[Verse 3]
He doesn't ask you to fix it before you come close
He meets you in the valley where you need Him the most
Trading your heavy burdens for a grace that is free
Rewriting the ending of who you used to be
The ultimate wisdom isn't what you can do
It's knowing that Jesus already did it for you
[Chorus]
But there is a Savior who stood in your place
To cover every failure with an ocean of grace
We couldn't reach up to heaven, so He came down to us
To break the chains of guilt and restore our trust
It's not a list of rules to make you look brand new
It's a cross, it's an empty tomb, it's Jesus dying for you
[Bridge]
So lay down the armor, lay down the fight
Step out of the performance and into His light
For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son
So you could finally breathe, because the work is already done
Taste and see that the Lord is good
He loves you right where you stood
[Chorus]
But there is a Savior who stood in your place
To cover every failure with an ocean of grace
We couldn't reach up to heaven, so He came down to us
To break the chains of guilt and restore our trust
It's not a list of rules to make you look brand new
It's a cross, it's an empty tomb, it's Jesus dying for you
[Outro]
He stood in your place...
With an ocean of grace.
Just open your heart and accept Him tonight.
