i used to

i used to always quote music lyrics on pretty much all my old posts. but i haven't in a long time. i think it's mostly due to the change in my blogging space. i don't have the internet beamed into my room anymore, i have to come to the library to use it. when i had it at home, i was always listening to music and could type them up as inspiration hit. usually they went with the post. often they had a meaning only i knew. sometimes lyrics can be a post when words of our own are insufficient or unusable. if that makes sense.

but yesterday i was thinking i wanted to post some lyrics that i was listening to. so here they are.

Four A.M., two hours to go
I'm wearing out a lonely glow
I miss you more than I could know
Here I am, here I am

I've got my hand in redemption's side
Whose scars are bigger than these doubts of mine
I'll fit all of these monstrosities inside
and I'll come alive

With my fist down at your feet
I was running out of mysteries
Insecure and incomplete, here I am, here I am,
won't you get me?

My fears have worn me out
My fears have worn me out
My fears have worn me, worn me
- Redemption, Switchfoot, from The Beautiful Letdown
