So life has been dandy lately. I went up to go see some friends and there were four kids there. It kind of made me sad but I tried not to dwell on it.
So I’ve been wondering, is the rain really as sweet as everyone is making it seem? Yeah, crazy question huh? Put that in your pipe and smoke it! I have been thinking about my life and I know I’ve walked down this and that road before. Everything about it is so familiar but it’s just as lonely as one I’ve never walked down before. I think I want to let go of everything but I hold onto letting go. Everywhere I go it remains. I know this can’t be goodbye for the last time. If it is I will hold onto letting go. Let me not walk away empty handed from this lesson.
I am bound by the chains of fear…and a crazy boyfriend. There must be a voice or whisper that could make me smile. I wonder what I look like through God’s eyes. When I turn my back faced toward the crowd, I wish they could see inside. It’s like I wear this mask everywhere in life. When I’m alone the battle is won or lost. The choices I make will determine the woman I will become. I guess I’m looking for a little reassurance and confidence that doesn’t come in grams.
When I sigh now I feel defeated. When I have nothing to say I feel silenced. Sometimes I just want to walk out of this bull shit and be with you. I just want to run away and be made new. I wanna throw my head back and look up at the stars and find hope and comfort in them. I need some room to breath, to walk away from this and walk out free. Where is my one way e-ticket out of here?
Teach me to be thankful
Teach me to pray
Teach me to believe in hope
That will never pass away
Turn my heart toward heaven
Teach it to sing
Give me today this daily bread
And give my spirit wings
I’ve walked too far
Down an easy road
Didn’t know I carried such a heavy load
The way was straight and broad
But now I know
It will never lead me home
There’s company in plenty
But somehow I still feel alone
