One Day When I'm Gone

One day when I'm gone,
When all my dreams go wrong,
I'll find my life was spent,
Chasing after my friends.

One day when I'm gone,
I won't be forgotten for too long,
I'll find in my reflection,
They gave me up with no objection.

One day when I'm free,
There will be no search parties for me,
No single torch or flare,
No loving embrace to show they care.

One day when I'm free,
No more ambiguity,
No more yes and no, go with the flow,
And just put on a real big show.

One day when I leave,
My heart and mind will be at ease,
No more distraction from His peace,
And no more friendly enemies.

I'm convinced I will fair well,
Once I've said my farewell,
But until that day has come,
Father,
Keep my eyes fixed on your Son.

Sounds like you might be talking about the fear of being distracted from God by people... who don't care anything like the way He does. But they do care more than they show, just normal everyday circumstances don't show it so much because everyone is distracted.
