Just thinking...
This song came on and I remembered how much I like it - and jars of clay for that matter. I think I sometimes pretend I don't like them b/c they are so mainstream now, and fall into the lies of, "you can't like mainstream, if you like mainstream then you are not original" or some crap like that. I actually like more mainstream than I'd like to admit, but I still believe I am an original. But really, all that has nothing to do with the song. I like the song for its words. Christians can question God. Oh man, now Sixpences - Within A Room Somewhere just came on. Great song too. I really really like the Beautiful Mess CD. I'd consider it their best CD by far. Reminds me of Will and 1995. And fingerpainting and artistic expression...
Silence - Jars Of Clay
take, take 'til there's nothing
nothing to turn to
nothing when you get through
won't you break
scatter pieces of all i've been bowing to
all i've been running to
where are you?
did you leave me unbreakable?
leave me frozen?
i've never felt so cold
i thought you were silent
i thought you left me
for the wreckage and the waste
on an empty beach of faith
was it true?
yes, i got a question
where are you?
scream
deeper, i wanta scream
i want you to hear me
i want you to find me
i, i want to believe
but all i pray is wrong
and all i claim is gone
yes, i got a question
where are you?
