A little too ironic

I was recommending some Lifehouse music to one of my friends as I have been listening to a lot of their songs off of Stanley Climbfall recently. And he made a comment about them bordering on too preachy for him. Found that kinda funny as most of the articles I had been reading about them were Christians lamenting their vague lyrics, refusal to label their music as Christian, and willingness to leave their lyrics up for interpretation.

So here's the lyrics to one of their vaguely "preachy" songs, Anchor.

I stand with a blank expression now
and I can't believe myself
will someone tell me how
did I get here
I am walking
changing slowly
I am chasing
climbing closer

I know that I'll never be alone
you will never let me go
you are my anchor
hold my hand
while I'm sinking in the sand
no one else could understand
you are my anchor

it seems that I lost track of time
and I can't believe my mind
would you save me if
I reached out to you
I'm waiting, watching, standing
I am reaching
climbing closer

can you hear me
hear me
can you hear me
