I know one of these days bad habits will kill me
That sooner or later we all must pay our debts
No one is immune to the maker
No matter how sorry
No matter how safe
No matter how lucky you are
The landlord needs the rent
But as I lay in my hospital bed
There's not a moment that I regret

[Chorus]
Take me to your leader
Put me in my place
A little smoke and mirrors
And a little bit of faith
I'm the captain of my story
But I'm looking for a mate
A rescue from the needle
Give me just a taste
Of your amazing grace

I often think of my life as one big movie
A two buck matinee of one of the greats
The main characters is just so captivating
I just worry I'm the only one in the seat
But as the final credits start to fade
I wouldn't take back a single frame

[Chorus]
Take me to your leader
Put me in my place
A little smoke and mirrors
And a little bit of faith
I'm the captain of my story
But I'm looking for a mate
A rescue from the needle
Give me just a taste
Of your amazing grace

I need you by my side
I need you this morning
Wrapped tight in a web of blankets and strawberry sheets
We both know in truth that we'd both
We'd be probably working
Nose holding tight to a laptop like a dog on a leash
Hold me baby
Hold me tight
The car is racing
The road is flying by

[Chorus]
Take me to your leader
Put me in my place
A little smoke and mirrors
And a little bit of faith
I'm the captain of my story
But I'm looking for a mate
A rescue from the needle
Give me just a taste
Of your amazing grace
