I'm Not Alright - Lyrics

By Sanctus Real

If weakness is a wound that no one wants to speak of,
Then cool is just how far we have to fall
I am not immune-I only wanna be loved
But I feel safe behind the firewall
Can I lose my need to impress?
If you want the truth, I need to confess

I'm not alright
I'm broken inside, broken inside
And all I go through
It leads me to you, it leads me to you

Burn away the pride, bring me to my weakness
Until everything I hide behind is gone
and when I'm open wide with nothing left to cling to
only you are there to lead me on
Because honestly, I'm not that strong

I'm not alright - I'm broken inside, broken inside
and all i go through - it leads me to you, it leads me to you

(and now i'm moved, and now i'm moved, and now i'm moved)closer to you
(and now i'm moved, and now i'm moved, and now i'm moved)closer to you
(and now i'm moved, and now i'm moved, and now i'm moved)closer to you
(and now i'm moved, and now i'm moved, and now i'm moved)

I'm not alright - I'm broken inside, broken inside
I'm broken inside, broken inside
and all I go through leads me to you, leads me to you

I'm not alright - I'm not alright - I'm not alright
Thats why I need you

Lonely Girl


Hey there lonely Girl, lonely girl
Let me make your broken heart like new
...



Everything came to a head last night. It's that whole teapot thing. When the anger starts to boil and then you blow and let outa whole lotta steam. Except, it's not anger that has come to the surface but pain. This pain goes deep. It's an emptiness and heaviness at the same time...The pain is loneliness. It's a different kinda loneliness I never felt before though. It's more then being home alone for the holidays. It's a loneliness that says, no one wants you. No one cares. No one even notices your there. It's feelings of abandonment,helplessness and wandering. I have carried this loneliness with me since I was a little girl. Always being left alone to find my way through life. So much stuff that has left me feeling abandoned and alone. So much stuff that still leaves me feeling left all alone.
As painful as it may be this is all part of my growing up. To see myself as He sees me. To know in my heart and not just my head that He calls me His own. To know I am His daughter and to know how very much He loves me.

IMPORTANT REMINDER:


Today you have a clean slate on which to record your life and your legacy. And because every day adds up to weeks that add up to months that add up to years, there is not one day that goes by uncounted.



So 3 things to work on today:


1. Decide today that this is going to be the best day you’ve ever had and when tomorrow comes you’ll decide the same thing.

2. Fight the temptation to compromise your values and beliefs. It will make you stronger. And temptation will come daily so make yourself consciously aware of that.

3. And as Mother Theresa put it “Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. I think Jesus put it well when He said something similar in Matthew 5:16 “Let your light so shine before all men that they might see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Make that one of your top goals today and you’ll automatically feel better about your life!

Your Love is Like - Lyrics

Your love is like the rain falling on my soul
Covering every place, making gardens grow
Sweetness overflows pouring from Your lips
Kisses from above, let the heavens drip

Your love is like the ocean
I'm drowning in Your presence

I'm getting lost in the gaze of Your eyes
I'm getting lost in the warmth of Your smile

Your love is like a room full of precious jewels
It takes my breath away, there's riches beyond words
When it's just me and You I can't remember storms
All I can do is melt into Your arms
