I don't really have much to write about today. I almost got slid off the road today by a big trucker who decided it was o.k. to fly past my little car going up hill in the snow. My last Christmas concert was tonight too. Boo. :( I want to keep singing those songs. That's one thing about choir; I hate learning new music. It's so tedious.
Well, because of lack of things to say, I am going to share with you some great lyrics from Dave Matthews. I forgot about this song until it came on my Ipod on my way home from school. The song is from their newest album. It's called Time Bomb.
I'm a ticking time bombWaiting to blow my topNo one would ever knowNot until I blew upNo one would believe itHe was such a normal guyShake their heads and wonder whyMartians fell from the skyWhat would that do to God?Would we put the weapons downOr aim it up at the skyNo one would believe itExcept the f------ nut jobsThey laugh and cry we told you soBaby when I get homeI want to believe in JesusHammer in the final nailHelp me pick up the piecesWhen everything starts to fallSo fast that it terrifies youWhen will you hit the wall?Are you gonna learn to fly?No one would believe itExcept for all the peopleWatching as you fly awayBaby when I get homeI want to pick up the piecesHammer in the final nailAnd lean me up against JesusBaby when I get homeI want to pick up the piecesHammer in the final nailI want to believe in Jesus
I bolded and colored my favorite part. It just puts such a wonderful picture in my head.
I also fell in love with Flyleaf's new EP. This song is called Light Your Eyes. The melody is absolutely beautiful. Definitely go take a listen. Very little people actually realize Flyleaf is a Christian rock band because of how heavy their music usually is. This new album, however, is incredibly soft and beautiful.
Pour the wineLight revivesLowering walls that divideKings and Queens yearn to seekLove in all its mysteryWhen all we wanted was love,We got cut up and burnedBut there's a light in your eyesAnd it tells meThat God is on our sideThe waning moonYour sweet perfumeIncense for the Holy OnesSecret hymns pour from your lipsHealing for this broken soulWe'd drive lateAnd let the music tell our fateFor me this is heavenDrown our fearsAnd we may ageIf we do not die todayUntil then we'll letThis music be our prayersWhen all we wanted was love,We got cut up and burnedBut there's a light in your eyesAnd it tells meThat God is on our sideAnd all we need now is loveWe've been through enoughWe can't run just 'cause we're scaredWe've come this farWe're not giving upAll we need now is loveWe've been through enoughWe can't run just 'cause we're scaredWe've come this farWe're not giving up
Hurray for the two hour delays!! I gave myself a little break this morning and slept in some. I probably could've slept all day except Tobbie needed to go outside. DANG! Anyways, I love the lyrics---such great words that are put together so well!! I am so jealous of that gift!
