Haven’t done one of these in a while… was about to head to bed when I remembered it

Here’s a youtube link

Waste Of TimeFM Static

This troubled heartache
won’t go away
I think there might be
something wrong with me
I take a deep breath and maybe
I’ll stop this shaking
God please don’t forsake me
I might be crazy

Am I losing my mind?
Sometimes I feel like
things are getting worse in time
If I try will you open my eyes?
And make me a part of you
like you’re a friend of mine

Next time I’m losing my mind
I’ll remember that to find my way out
is just a waste of time
In place of all my mistakes
You’ve seen through the shadows above me
No one could ever love me like you

If I finish what I started
and get swept under the carpet
I’ll still be thankful for all you’ve done
Take a note to remind me
that you know where you can find me
I’ll probably end up right back here again

Am I losing my mind?
Sometimes I feel like
things are getting worse in time
If I try will you open my eyes?
And make me a part of you
like you’re a friend of mine

Next time I’m losing my mind
I’ll remember that to find my way out
is just a waste of time
In place of all my mistakes
seen through the shadows above me
No one could ever love…

I’ll be everything that you want me to
except for perfect
I’m trying hard just to understand
your plan for me
I’ll be everywhere that you want me to
unless I fall
I’m just trying to get my life back again

Next time I’m losing my mind
I’ll remember that to find my way out
is just a waste of time
In place of all my mistakes
You’ve seen through the shadows above me
No one could ever love me…

Next time I’m losing my mind
I’ll remember that to find my way out
is just a waste of time
In place of all my mistakes
You’ve seen through the shadows above me
No one could ever love me like you

Another one of those songs that I’ve heard a million times and lately it come to mean more to me.

Breathe You InThousand Foot Krutch

Taking hold, breaking in
The pressures all need to circulate
Mesmerized and taken in
Moving slow, so it resonates
It’s time to rest, not to sleep away
My thoughts alone, try to complicate
I’ll do my best, to seek you out
And be myself, and not impersonate

[Chorus:]
I tried so hard to not walk away
And when things don’t go my way
I’ll still carry on and on just the same
I’ve always been strong
But can’t make this happen
‘Cause I need to breathe, I want to breathe you in
The fear of becoming
I’m so tired of running
‘Cause I need to breathe, I want to breath you in
I want to breathe you in

I’m going in, so cover me
Your compass will, help me turn the page
The laughing stock, I’ll never be
Because I won’t let them take me

[Chorus]

Took awhile to see all the love that’s around me
Through the highs and lows there’s a truth that I’ve known
And it’s you

I’ve always been strong
But can’t make this happen
‘Cause I need to breathe, I want to breathe you in
The fear of becoming
I’m so tired of running
‘Cause I need to breathe, I want to breathe you in
I want to breathe you in
I want to breathe you in
I want to breathe you in
I want to, I want to
I want to breathe you in
I want to breathe you in
I want to breathe; I want to, I want to
Wanna breathe
I want to breathe you in
I want to breathe you in
I wanna breathe

So Third Day released a new album about two weeks ago, and tonight I finally listened to it. I really liked the whole album, but had to choose just one to post. The one I decided on – perhaps because it was the last one on the album so was freshest in my mind, perhaps it just reflects what I’m feeling right now most(though that would be hard to say for sure because a few others hit close to home too) – is called “Take it All.”

YOUTUBE

Take it AllThird Day

All the promises I’ve broken,
All the times I’ve let You down,
You forgot them, but still I hold on to the pain that makes me drown,
But now I’m ready to let it go, to give it away.

Take it all,
Cause I can’t take it any longer,
All I have, I can’t make it on my own,
Take the first, take the last,
Take the good and take the rest
Here I am, all I have,
Take it all.

And all the roads that lie before me,
All the struggles I go through,
Every second a reminder that it all belongs to You,
Now I’m ready to let it go, to give it away.

Take it all,
Cause I can’t take it any longer,
All I have, I can’t make it on my own,
Take the first, take the last,
Take the good and take the rest
Here I am, all I have,
Take it all.

And ever since I died to myself,
You gave a better life to me,
I give You my finest moment,
I give You the last breath I breathe.

Take it all,
Cause I can’t take it any longer,
All I have, I can’t make it on my own,
Take the first, take the last,
Take the good and take the rest,

Take it all,
Cause I can’t take it any longer,
All I have, I can’t make it on my own,
Take the first, take the last,
Take the good and take the rest,
Here I am, all I have,
Take it all.

Ever had one of those moments when you’ve heard a song a million times, but for some reason when you hear it this time it feels like you’ve never really heard it before?

I had one of those moments tonight with this song. I hear it on the radio fairly frequently, but tonight I like it more than ever.

Youtube Link

GravityCircleSlide

Who can restore me
Back to what I should be?
Who understands me?
And all that I’m feeling?
And when I’m falling
Who’s gonna catch me?

Makes me want to sing out
Your love will never let me down
Ruler of the stars
You lift my heart to where you are
This is why I sing out
Your love will never let me down
When you rescued me
You broke the laws of Gravity

You have restored me
You conquered and saved me
You’re my security
When worlds are colliding
I’ll fly away with you
Unshackled and set free

Makes me want to sing out
Your love will never let me down
Ruler of the stars
You lift my heart to where you are
This is why I sing out
Your love will never let me down
When you rescued me
You broke the laws of Gravity

I Let go of the world to touch Your face
The sunlight before me… sorrow behind me…

Makes me want to sing out
Your love will never let me down
Ruler of the stars
You lift my heart to where you are
This is why I sing out
Your love will never let me down
When you rescued me
You broke the laws of Gravity

I’ve been hearing this song a lot lately… actually probably no more frequently than I did before, but it’s really been growing on me lately.

Youtube!

Whispers in the DarkSkillet

Despite the lies that you’re making
Your love is mine for the taking
My love is just waiting
To turn your tears to roses

Despite the lies that you’re making
Your love is mine for the taking
My love is just waiting
To turn your tears to roses

I will be the one that’s gonna hold you
I will be the one that you run to
My love is a burning, consuming fire

No, you’ll never be alone
When darkness comes I’ll light the night with stars
Hear my whispers in the dark
No, you’ll never be alone
When darkness comes you know I’m never far
Hear the whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark

You feel so lonely and ragged
You lay there broken and naked
My love is just waiting
To clothe you in crimson roses

I will be the one that’s gonna find you
I will be the one that’s gonna guide you
My love is a burning, consuming fire

No, you’ll never be alone
When darkness comes I’ll light the night with stars
Hear my whispers in the dark
No, you’ll never be alone
When darkness comes you know I’m never far
Hear the whispers in the dark

No, you’ll never be alone
When darkness comes I’ll light the night with stars
Hear the whispers in the dark
No, you’ll never be alone
When darkness comes you know I’m never far
Hear the whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark
Whispers in the dark

I hadn’t ever heard this song until tonight when it happened to be playing while I was busy winning a CD. Anyway, I really like this song… can’t believe I hadn’t heard this song.

And of course a youtube link

Yes You HaveLeeland

Every tree and every stone
Every rushing wind that moans
They sing Your praise
My God, they sing Your praise
Every star and open sky
Tell of Your glory divine
They shout Your praise
They shout Your praise, yeah

You’ve stolen my heart
Yes, You have!
You’ve stolen my heart
Yes, You have!
You’ve wiped away the stains
And broke away the chains
Yes, You have!!

With Your love You set me free
Three nails gave me liberty
So I’ll sing Your praise
My God, I’ll sing Your praise
Oh, with Your love
You forgave my sin
Forgot my past
And brought me back again
So I’ll sing Your praise
I’ll sing Your praise, yeah

Or hide behind the night
I can not run Your love is chasing me
If I fall into the sea
Your hand will rescue me
No one will take Your place
Because

This is all for You
Yes, this is all for You
You’re the King of the world
You’re the King of the world
You’re the King of the world
You’re the King of the world
You’re the King of the world

You’ve wiped away the stains
And broke away the chains
Yes, You have!!

This is a song from a group that I believe had a farewell tour last year… One of the first Christian rock groups I remember listening to. I’m pretty sure this particular song is only like 3 years old though.

This particular youtube link happens to be a video from their final concert.

Until My Heart Caves InAudio Adrenaline

I’m a warrior, I’m a warrior
I would die for You, for You
My love is fierce, I’m a warrior
I would die for You, for You

I’m a warrior with a warrior’s heart
And it burns for You, for You
My love is fierce, I’m a warrior
I would die for You, give it all for You

CHORUS
I won’t give up, I won’t give up on You
I won’t give up on You
I will sing Your name until my heart caves in
Until my heart caves in

I won’t give up
I won’t give up
I won’t give up
I won’t give up

I will sing Your name until my heart caves in
Until my heart caves in
Until my heart caves in

I’m a warrior, I’m a warrior

I will sing Your name until my heart caves in
Until my heart caves in
Until my heart caves in

Well, I’m back from my trip to Tennessee, so I get to post this week. A couple posts ago I mentioned that I was excited about a new Kutless cd that was coming out soon. Well, it’s out now, and this week I’ve got another song from that cd… awesome album by the way.

Youtube: here

I Do Not BelongKutless

I look around and I feel like, thing’s changed and I don’t know why
And everyday that passes by I feel so far away
I can see in the distance, You have the rest of me
I put my trust in you, as I look beyond today
It’s all becoming clear.

I do not belong in a world of broken pieces
I was meant to be in the arms of Your redemption
I am moving on to the place of Your perfection
Cause I do not belong

When the world is behind me on the day that I breathe my last
In the face of enternity there’s hope cause’ I believe
When I look to the heavens and the future that you hold
It makes it easier to see beyond today
Now I’m looking to the sky

I do not belong in a world of broken pieces
I was meant to be in the arms of Your redemption
I am moving on to the place of Your perfection
Cause I do not belong

This world is not my home
I’m a stranger in this land
But I am not alone
When I do not belong…

I do not belong in a world of broken pieces
I was meant to be in the arms of Your redemption
I am moving on to the place of Your perfection
Cause I do not belong
No, I do not belong
I do not belong

I missed this for a couple weeks, because I have been having issues with my internet connection, but it seems to be working again… for now.

Here’s a song from a fairly new group with a really good message that I don’t think needs much explanation.

And of course: the youtube link(This one is a live performance)

Let It GoTenth Avenue North


I’ve been holding on so tight
Look at these knuckles
They’ve gone white
I’m fighting for who I wanna be
I’m just trying to find security

But You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one’s who lose control
You say you will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it’s then I’ll find my soul
You say let it go.

Well it’s hard enough to hear
Harder still, to move beyond this fear
We know there’s nothing I can bring,
So tell me what do you want from me?

But You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one’s who lose control
You say You will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it’s then I’ll find my soul
You say let it go, You say let it go

What do I love?
What do I hate?
What will I lose?
What will I gain?
How do I save my soul?
What if I bend?
What if I break?
What will it cost?
What will it take?
For you to save my soul.

You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one’s who lose control
You say You will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it’s then I’ll find my soul

You say let it go, You say let it go
You say life is waiting for the one’s who lose control
You say you will be, everything I need
You said if I lose my life it’s then I’ll find my soul
You say let it go, You say let it go

Alright, this week’s song is here mostly for two reasons. Firstly, because I’m excited about the fact that Kutless has a new CD coming out soon. And secondly, I really like these lines(I like the whole song, but I really like these lines):

There’s a greater meaning
Beyond the music the music that we are bringing
Cuz tonight we are singing
And together we know

youtube link

The FeelingKutless

I feel like I can’t stand still anymore
Are you with me?
You got a mic here’s the band now get your feet off the floor

I cannot run away
The feeling’s gotta stay while we rock all night long (hey, hey, hey hey)
I think that we all know
The reason that we show the world how real we are (hey, hey, hey hey)

Turn it up feel the beat and scream the lyrics you know
Keep it coming
The time is right lets unite to the rock and roll
Everybody

I cannot run away
The feeling’s gotta stay while we rock all night long(hey, hey, hey hey)
I think that we all know
The reason that we show the world how real we are (hey, hey, hey hey)

There’s a greater meaning
Beyond the music the music that we are bringing
Cuz tonight we are singing
And together we know

We cannot run away
The feeling’s gotta stay while we rock all night long (hey, hey, hey hey)
I think that we all know
The reason that we show the world how real we are (hey, hey, hey hey)
Hey
Yea!
