Don't lose yourself in you fear

Sep 01, 2007 19:28


Today has been a good day.  Riding down the highway, with the windows down, sunny skies above, and a great Hanson mix playing, is just what I needed.  When the song "The Walk" came on, it really really hit me hard for the first time.  I've always loved it, and loved the lyrics especially, but something about hearing it at that moment really made me think about a lot of stuff.  Somewhere along the way, I have completely lost myself in my fear.  I've lived life in fear of everything, and I can't let that happen anymore.  I really felt at peace, and that God has a plan for my life, and that everything will fall into place.  I just can't let my fear control my life anymore.  I need to be a stronger, better person.  I know it's ok to have goals and dreams.  Maybe someday I will live in England.  Maybe someday I will get married.  Maybe I really should be a nurse, and I will be good at it.  There's so many things that can happen, and it's time for me to grow up, be the person I want to be, and make things happen.  I can feel better about myself.  I just need to try.

Well deep in the woods
Where nothing is seen
A tightrope is strung to his heel
And high on the walk
He's down on one knee
He waits for the slow of the breeze
Oh, wow, look at him now, on his feet
High up in the sky
And every moment stands endlessly
It feels as though time isn't moving

And every second, one breath not to breathe
I watch as he moves to the beat
While I'm on the floor
I watch from my seat
And watch as he sways with the trees
And slowly he moves, but elegantly
I'm more on the edge of my seat

On the tightrope
Everything's bare
All that there is is from here to there
On the tightrope
The goal is quite clear
Don't lose yourself in your fear

Everyone waits on the walk
Some are long and some small
But all of them tall
Everyone must make a choice
Will I go for it all
And possibly fall
The tightrope is thin
I could possibly win on the walk

Well high on the walk
The tightrope it bends
And nobody knows where it ends
To win or to lose
You're all on your own
Everyone must be alone

On the tightrope
Everything's bare
All that there is is from here to there
On the tightrope
The goal is quite clear
Don't lose yourself in your fear

The Walk- Hanson
Thank you Zac Hanson for this song!
