Mooi hè Pius Zo staan er nog wel meer nummers op "No line on the horizon" met verwijzingen naar Christus. Wel op z'n Bono's bij wijze van spreken, maar dat maakt het juist zo fasicinerend en errug mooi! Je moet een beetje graven i.p.v. dat je het zo op je bord krijgt zoals bij een Michael W. Smith, zeg maar.

Quiet now in sleepy dreams

To me it seems the only time to be

Just me

Bombarded by the phone, in my own home

Can't get the space that I need

And how I need it, yeah

Oh me, yeah, oh my

Oh me, me, me, me oh my

Oh when I look

When i look at my life

Oh me, oh my

When i look at my life, yeah lalala

Crowded by the city, all around me

Need some silence from the loud

And noisy crowds

And i'm trying to catch a breath through the air of death

Can't see the sun for the clouds

Those dirty clouds

And the night has no compassion for your actions

When you're trying to get away

From the hard day, yeah

And i need someone to talk to apart from you

But i guess that's just the way

Come what may, oh

Oh me, yeah, oh my

Oh me, me, me, me oh my

Oh when I look

When i look at my life

Oh me, oh my

When i look at my life

Oh God

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

No, yeah

God

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

Yeah

Are you out there

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

If so where are you hiding?

I'm having trouble finding you

Oh me, oh my

Oh me, me, me, me oh my

Oh when I look

When i look at my life

Oh me, oh my

When i look at my life

Oh God

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

No, yeah

Are you there

Are you there

Hier volgen een paar liedjes die ik a capella op cd heb staan. Zijn erg mooi!

Julie Knowles- Bless Us This Day

Father in heaven, hear as we pray

be in our hearts and bless us this day

thine is the glory thee we adore

be thou our comfort forevermore

grant that we trough all our days

may share thy gifts and sing thy praise

o, loving father, now as we pray

bless us this day, bless us this day.

Jerome Olds- Mighty Spirit

There is a mighty spirit shining out across the sky

he's calling out the weary, to green pastures come and lie

there is a mighty spirit crossing barren land

he's showing love unceasing, fresh fruit spring from the sand

harvest time is coming, the reaper's in his hand

go tell everybody that love is his command

There is a mighty spirit shining out across the sky

he's calling out the weary, to green pastures come and lie

there is a mighty spirit crossing barren land

he's showing love unceasing, fresh fruit spring from the sand

fresh fruit spring from the sand

Dead Cab for Cutie

I will follow you into the dark

Love of mine some day you will die

But I'll be close behind

I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white

Just our hands clasped so tight

Waiting for the hint of a spark

If heaven and hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule

I got my knuckles brusied by a lady in black

And I held my toungue as she told me

"Son fear is the heart of love"

So I never went back

If heaven and hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see

From Bangkok to Calgary

And the soles of your shoes are all worn down

The time for sleep is now

It's nothing to cry about

Cause we'll hold each other soon

The blackest of rooms

If heaven and hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

Then I'll follow you into the dark

In het vakantietopic moest ik aan dit liedje denken.

Ge-ni-aal, een een mooie tekst

As I wonder through the frozen

Landscape of Scandinavia

I am surrounded by

The magnificent creation

Thy nature truly a testimony

Of Thy eternal might

Like a wall, ancient mountains

Rise beyond the endless forests

As a mirror, the cold lakes

Reflect their shadows

Star of the Nordic skies glimpse

In harmony with the heavenly

Symphony of colours

The majestic northern lights

I praise Thee, o Master

For the gift of nature

I praise Thee

For the landscape of Scandinavia

Thou spread snow like wool

And scatter frost like ashes

Thou hurls down Thy hail like morsels

Who can withstand Thy icy blast?

Thou send Thy word and melt them

Thou stir the breeze

And let the water flow

Ancient beasts of the north

Made by Thy hands

In the depths of the Swedish

Wastelands they live

Elks and bears

Kings of the wood

Who would not fear their creator?

Thou have shown me

The beauty of lynx and fox

Their cunning conceived

By Thy wisdom in days of old

I have heard the wolves

Lift their howls of praise heavenwards

While ravens and eagles sour

In the midst of the sky

Proclaiming that the hour has come

For the day of the Lord is near

Soon it is upon us

Verily, I have seen Thy sign

The crimson moonlight

En nog een mooie:

But suddenly I felt

His arms around me

At last He had come

The Son of Man spoke to me:

"You..." the voice came, "beloved one"

He raised me up

And walked before me

And I followed his footsteps

With a sound of deliverance

A small and hidden gate

Was opened for me

"Follow me", he said

And invited me

Into the landscape

From where I first came

We sat down by a fire

And while his eyes penetrated me

He started to show me

The purpose of all my pain

"You see", He declared

"I myself once did this for you"

"For me", I replied. "Why?"

He continued:

"I once walked this path of pain

But I went much deeper

Than you ever may do

My love for you knew no end

And therefore I did

I had to sacrifice my life that time

And I did it

Because of the never fading love I have for you

But, though your pain was terrible

And I saw no end to your sufferings

I have walked the whole path with you

You have not taken one single step

Without me seeing it

And I have heard every one of your words

I heard when you cried for help

When you asked the Father to see your pain

Behold the path now lying behind you"

I turned and watch

The steps on the road

Each one of them was covered with blood

As steps before also were

His smile told of his great love to me

And as I started to cry tears of relief

He made a statement

Beloved one, I may not tell you why

I let you face situations like these

But I give you a promise...

I will never do these things

To hurt you in any way

But to strengthen you for future walk

And remember

Beloved one you will never be able to walk

Deeper into the unknown parts of the forest

Than I have done

I have walked the whole way

And therefore I know how to give you guidance

When you feel trapped on unknown ways...

He suddenly stood up and pointed

In another direction, and said:

Now walk this way and you will soon be

Out on the main path again

He disappeared from my sight

But my spirit could feel his presence of His

I trusted His words, and soon I walked

Beside the clear spring again

My whole being was strengthened

And I was armoured with the trust in Him

I needed for future tests to come

And I continued to walk the path ahead

Randy Newman - God's Song ( bij voorkeur luisteren op youtube voor stem zanger en sfeer liedje)

Cain slew Abel Seth knew not why

For if the children of Israel were to multiply

Why must any of the children die?

So he asked the Lord

And the Lord said:

"Man means nothing he means less to me

than the lowiliest cactus flower

or the humblest yucca tree

he chases round this desert

cause he thinks that's where i'll be

that's why i love mankind

I recoil in horror from the foulness of thee

from the squalor and the filth and the misery

How we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer me

That's why i love mankind"

The Christians and the Jews were having a jamboree

The Buddhists and the Hindus joined on satellite TV

They picked their four greatest priests

And they began to speak

They said "Lord the plague is on the world

Lord no man is free

The temples that we built to you

Have tumbled into the sea

Lord, if you won't take care of us

Won't you please please let us be?"

And the Lord said

And the Lord said

"I burn down your cities--how blind you must be

I take from you your children and you say how blessed are we

You must all be crazy to put your faith in me

That's why i love mankind

You really need me

That's why i love mankind"

Benieuwd wat jullie hiervan vinden,

in mijn opvatting word hier de visie bezongen dat God niet zozeer van onze talenten houd, maar juist van onze tekortkomingen. We zijn juist aandoenlijk in zijn ogen, als een puppy dat nog moet leren, of (hoe toepasselijk) Het schaap dat van de kudde afdwaalt.

[Think 0]

Eigenlijk houdt God helemaal niet van ons? Hij verbrand onze steden, neemt onze kinderen af (kijk naar de genocides bevolen door God in het Oude Testament). Dat is wat ik erin hoor. We maken ons graag wijs dat er een god is die om ons geeft, maar hij geeft geen f**k om ons.

Buckcherry- Don't Go Away

In my darkest state of mind

I am riddled with despair

When I try and close my eyes

Your voice is all I hear

I will think of you tonight

I will hold back all my tears

I've waited all these years

Please don't go away

You're making a mistake

You and I were meant to be

You opened up my eyes

And made me realize

Now its changing everything

Its crazy how I feel this way

I cant explain don't go away

I see your shadow all the time

I see your face inside my mirror

Like a sunset in the sky

You distract me from my fears

I keep holding it inside

And I wish that you were near

Its better when You're here

Please don't go away

You're making a mistake

You and I were meant to be

You opened up my eyes

And made me realize

Now its changing everything

Its crazy how I feel this way

I cant explain don't go away

All the things you said

And all the games we played

Will come back to you

See the look in your eyes

Ooooh, don't go away

Please don't go away

You're making a mistake

You and I were meant to be

Please don't go away

You're making a mistake

You and I were meant to be

You opened up my eyes

And made me realize

Now its changing everything

Its crazy how I feel this way

I cant explain why I feel this way

It's hard to say

I want to make you see

What you mean to me

Don?t go away

Zero 7 - Destiny

I lie awake

I've gone to ground

I'm watching porn

In my hotel dressing gown

Now I dream of you

But I still believe

There's only enough for one in this

Lonely hotel suite

The journey's long

And it feels so bad

I'm thinking back to the last day we had.

Old moon fades into the new

Soon I know I'll be back with you

I'm nearly with you

I'm nearly with you

When I'm weak I draw strength from you

And when you're lost I know how to change your mood

And when I'm down you breathe life over me

Even though we're miles apart we are each other's destiny

On a clear day

I'll fly home to you

I'm bending time getting back to you

Old moon fades into the new

Soon I know I'll be back with you

I'm nearly with you

I'm nearly with you

When I'm weak I draw strength from you

And when you're lost I know how to change your mood

And when I'm down you breathe life over me

Even though we're miles apart we are each other's destiny

When I'm weak I draw strength from you

And when you're lost I know how to change your mood

And when I'm down you breathe life over me

Even though we're miles apart we are each other's destiny

I'll fly, I'll fly home

I'll fly home and I'll fly home

Johnny Cash - One

Is it getting better

Or do you feel the same

Will it make it easier on you now

If youve got someone to blame

You said one love

One life

When its oone need

In the night

One love we get to share it

It leaves you baby if you dont care for it

Did i disappoint you

Or leave a bad taste in your mouth

You act like you never had love

And you want me to go without

Well its too late

Tonight

To drag the past out

Into the light

We're one but we're not the same

We get to carry each other

Carry each other

One

Have you come here for forgivness

Have you come to raise the dead

Have you come here to play jesus

To the lepors in your head

Did i ask too much

More than a lot

You gave me nothing now

Its all i got

We're one but we're not the same

Well we hurt each other and we're doin it again

You said love is a temple

Love the higher law

Love is a temple

Love the higher law

You ask me to enter

But then you make me crawl

I cant be holdin on

To what youve got

When all youve got is hurt

One love

One blood

One life

Youve got to do what you should

One life with each other

Sister

Brothers

One life but we're not the same

We get to carry each other

Carry each other

[Olorin 154]

I studied at the feet of a master,

Gamaliel we called him, the beauty of the law,

I was born of the Tribe of Benjamin, I was a Pharisee,

and I could quote from memory the Holy Torah.

That day that the Nazarene was brought to trial,

it was on a Sabbath eve ,there was a earthquake when He died,

just another passing preacher who came up from Galilee,

blaspheming trouble-maker, we let Him be crucified.

Then I thought that I would hear no more about him,

but his friends found his tomb empty, claimed that he rose from the dead,

then they said he walked among them with the nail wounds in his hands,

that King upon a donkey with a thorn crown on his head.

His followers kept growing in great number,

and the one that they call Caiaphas mocked us in the judgement hall,

and with the Greek name Stephen we knew the gentiles had come in,

I cast my vote against him, he was stoned I saw him fall.

Then the friends of the Nazarene became united,

and I became enraged then led a slaughter zealously,

I found their secret places, they were beaten, they were chained,

but some of them were scattered, justified in fearing me.

CHORUS

Then the Man in White, appeared to me,

in such a blinding light it struck me down,

with it's brilliance, took away my sight, then the Man in White,

in gentle loving tone spoke to me,

and I was blinded so that I might see, the Man in White

But like the wind that blows the scattered sea,

from Alexandria to Antioch their congregation grew,

I went to the high priest for letters of permission,

to go to other cities, to see my mission through.

Six days on the hot road to the masters,

and just outside the city in the middle of the day,

a great unearthly light struck and overpowered me,

prostrate on the hot road, I was blinded were I laid.

Then I thought I heard the rushing of great water,

and a multitude of angels singing sweet and heavenly,

and through the sound of wind, came a voice so soft and kind,

meant for only me to hear, "Saul, why do you persecute me?"

As I lay there on the ground, in my blindness,

he asked me once again, and suddenly the voice I knew,

so finally I managed, a trembling response,

who are you Lord?, I asked him, but I already knew.

I am Jesus of Nazareth the voice answered,

arise go to Damascus on the street called Straight will be,

a place where you will wait for my servant Ananais,

he will open up your eyes, you'll be a witness unto me.

So now I live to serve my master,

as zealous in his service as I once was as his foe,

and keeping his commandments given on Damascus road,

I go to all the world, and I let the whole world know,

CHORUS

Then the Man in White, appeared to me,

in such a blinding light it struck me down,

with it's brilliance, took away my sight, then the Man in White,

in gentle loving tone spoke to me,

and I was blinded so that I might see, the Man in White.

and I was blinded so that I might see, the Man in White.

Harrie Jekkers - Leve De Schaamte

Je moest je vroeger voor van alles schamen

Je niet schamen was taboe

Er werd door iedereen wat afgeschaamd

Je kwam nergens meer aan toe

Je moest je schamen van je ouders

De meester en van God

Schamen was normaal, je deed het allemaal

Wie zich niet schaamde, schaamde zich kapot

Zo stond je zomers op het strand

Met je zwembroek in 't zand

Heel onhandig op een been

Met een handdoek om je heen

Bij het onderbroek uittrekken

Je je-weet-wel te bedekken

Niemand zag een stukje bloot

Maar je schaamde je toch dood

Omdat je onder je handdoek geen onderbroek aan had

En dan dat panische moment

Dat je in je blote krent

Door je knieen moest zakken

Om die zwembroek op te pakken

Wat stond je hem te knijpen

Zoekend naar de juiste pijpen

Angstig kijkend, wild gebarend

En je evenwicht bewarend

Tot die rotbroek eindelijk om je krent heenzat

Maar het kwam ook weleens voor

Dat je je evenwicht verloor

En dan struikelend in je pijpen

Je probeerde vast te grijpen

Aan een paal die er niet stond

En dan lag je in het zand

En dan zag het hele strand

Tjonge, jonge eventjes een stukje van je blote je-weet-wel

Dat was de schaamte

Je niet schamen was taboe

Iedereen die schaamde zich

Tot aan de kleinste schaamluis toe

Alles was taboe, vreselijk taboe

Een taboe is geen taboe

Als het niet doorbroken wordt

En het taboe doorbreken werd dan ook

Een nationale sport

Weg met 'ja' en 'amen', leve 'frank' en 'vrij'

Wie zich nog schaamde moest zich schamen

Want de schaamte was voorbij

Het grote strippen was begonnen

De schaamte overwonnen

De rokken werden mini

Het badpak een bikini

Bij de blanke top der duinen

Zag je vrouwen topless bruinen

Op straat liepen de hippies

Te streaken zonder slippies

Open en bloot werd steeds verder gegaan

Er werd vrolijk uitgekomen

Voor te lang verdrongen dromen

Openbaarheid was okee

Zo kon je live op de teevee

In programma's rondom tien

Getrouwde homofielen zien

Of je zag een macho huilen

Na een weekend partnerruilen

Een geaborteerde non

Die dat maar niet verwerken kon

Een pot uit Purmerend

Met een baby, zonder vent

Of je zag transexuelen

Met hun nieuwe tieten spelen

Van de Vara tot de Tros, men openbaarde erop los

En er werd massaal gekeken

Naar het taboe doorbreken

De remmen gingen los en de schaamte was de klos

Weg met de schaamte, leve de openheid

Doet allen mee, raakt op teevee

Uw laatste restje schaamte kwijt

Bespreek het maar en reken maar

Je raakt die rotzooi kwijt

Dankzij openheid

Leve openheid

Openheid is openheid

Maar als alles open is

Mag je toch hopen dat die openheid

Ook afgelopen is

Maar openheid kent geen tijd

Openheid gaat door

Maar wat stelt al die openheid

Nu alles open is, in alle openheid nog voor

Wie gaat er nou op de teevee vertellen

Mijn man draagt roze jaretellen

Wie zegt nou in het openbaar

Ik kom alleen maar met een waspeen klaar

Wie zegt nou door een microfoon

Wurgsex vinden wij gewoon

Al die kijkjes in de keuken

Van al dat kip- tot geitenneuken, joh

En het einde van al die openheid

Is nog lang niet in zicht

Er komt vast nog wel een man

Die zichzelf pijpen kan

Een vrouw die moet proberen

Tien keer live te onaneren

Een nicht op hoge hakken

Die zijn laarzen vol kan kakken

Een goochelaar uit Schagen

Die zijn penis door kan zagen

Al die openheid, 't is toch geen gezicht

Was prive‚ maar weer prive

Swiebertje weer op teevee

Kan al die schaamteloze openheid niet dicht

Leve de schaamte

Weg met dat soort openheid

Hiep hiep hoera voor het taboe

Dat is aan opwaardering toe

Aan rehabilitatie toe

Leve het taboe, jeah

Leve het taboe

En dat ik me nu weer rotschaam

Nou, daar schaam ik me niet voor

Dat soort openheid, in godsnaam

Mag daar weer een handdoek voor

Miseration - Thrones

In a land of darkness

In the dark of the night

Only death in their souls

No escape, you will die

Death warriors spreading fear

Ready to abolish mankind

They are back, back to kill

They are the legions

Legions of the dead

Slaves of death, manifests in the night

Human extinction is at hand

Ripping our flesh, tormenting our souls

A horde from above

Riding cahriots on fire

Sealed with shining armours

Illuminating darkness

Chosen light to be their guide

In the dark of the night

They are back, back to fight

They are the legions, legions of light

Holy servants, avengers of justice

Demon extinction is at hand

Ripping their flesh, tormenting their souls

They are the legions, legions of light

I am the one that protects your innocence

I am the one who condemns the lies

I am the one that gives you shelter through the pain

I am the one that gives you life

I am the one that devours your innocence

I am the one tormenting your flesh

I am the one feeding you guilt

I am the one demolishing your existence

They are nemesis, this is the final battle

The end has come with violence and bloodshed

This last confrontation, a life ending struggle

Judgement day has come, prepare for the doom

1 Woord... Schitterend.

Sia - Breathe Me

Help, I have done it again

I have been here many times before

Hurt myself again today

And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame

Be my friend

Hold me, wrap me up

Unfold me

I am small

and needy

Warm me up

And breathe me

Ouch I have lost myself again

Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,

Yeah I think that I might break

Lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend

Hold me, wrap me up

Unfold me

I am small

and needy

Warm me up

And breathe me

Rammstein - Seemann

Komm in mein Boot

ein Sturm kommt auf

und es wird Nacht

Wo willst du hin

so ganz allein

treibst du davon

Wer hält deine Hand

wenn es dich

nach unten zieht

Wo willst du hin

so uferlos

die kalte See

Komm in mein Boot

der Herbstwind hält

die Segel straff

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne

mit Tränen im Gesicht

das Tageslicht fällt auf die Seite

der Herbstwind fegt die Straße leer

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne

hast Tränen im Gesicht

das Abendlicht verjagt die Schatten

die Zeit steht still und es wird Herbst

Komm in mein Boot

die Sehnsucht wird

der Steuermann

Komm in mein Boot

der beste Seemann

war doch ich

Jetzt stehst du da an der Laterne

hast Tränen im Gesicht

das Feuer nimmst du von der Kerze

die Zeit steht still und es wird Herbst

Sie sprachen nur von deiner Mutter

so gnadenlos ist nur die Nacht

am Ende bleib ich doch alleine

die Zeit steht still

und mir ist kalt

Hier word ik rustigjes weer vrolijk van, wat een power. (of slaat juist om) (mijn Hour of Power )

Evergrey - Darkest Hour

Feel free to question me

Let out the hate you feel

Blame all your doubts on me

And your caving reality

I will not judge, I cannot judge

So feel free to question me

I would hold you when you're sleeping

I would guide you when you're drifting

I'd be the light you seek in your darkest hour

I will show you how to leave it

Out of the darkness & into the light

Leave it

I will show you how to leave it

To find a new day & a vision in bright

Feel free to question me

Let out the hate you feel

Walk throught insanity

And awake into crystal clarity

I will show you how to leave it

Out of the darkness & into the light

Leave it

I will show you how to leave it

To find a new day & a vision in bright

Mother, do you think they'll drop the bomb?

Mother, do you think they'll like this song?

Mother, do you think they'll try to break my balls?

Mother, should I build the wall?

Mother, should I run for President?

Mother, should I trust the government?

Mother, will they put me in the firing line?

Is it just a waste of time?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry

Momma's gonna make all of your nightmares come true

Momma's gonna put all of her fears into you

Momma's gonna keep you right here under her wing

She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing

Momma's will keep Baby cozy and warm

Oooo Babe

Oooo Babe

Ooo Babe, of course Momma's gonna help build the wall

Mother, do you think she's good enough

For me?

Mother, do you think she's dangerous

To me?

Mother will she tear your little boy apart?

Mother, will she break my heart?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry

Momma's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you

Momma won't let anyone dirty get through

Momma's gonna wait up until you get in

Momma will always find out where you've been

Momma's gonna keep Baby healthy and clean

Oooo Babe

Oooo Babe

Ooo Babe, you'll always be Baby to me

Mother, did it need to be so high?

Pink Floyd - TIME:

Ticking away, the moments that make up a dull day

You fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town

Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain

You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you

No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking

Racing around to come up behind you again

The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is gettin shorter, never seem to find the time

Plans that even come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way

The time is gone the song is over, thought I'd something more to say

heb moeten afwachten in de wereld

Maar de mensen willen van geen mens weten

zoals ik iemand ben

dat geen mens mijn brandende mens wil mogen

dat is uiteindelijk een zacht woord

Wie praat zo mager met de taal als ik

wie praat zo mager met de taal als ik

hoe graag had ik niet ooit

hoe graag had ik niet ooit

had maar ooit een enkel mens mijn lichaamshandmens

want een hand voor mij is witter

een hand voor mij is witter dan een bloem

Het wachten op alles is afgelopen

teveel levens ben ik oud... brandhout

de wereld verrekt mij mijn ogen

als die van een kettinghond die voor het eerst het licht ziet

Een orenmens ben ik

het oor kan alles beter onderscheiden

ik hoor mijn lucht

Ik hoor mijn grond.

Wie praat zo mager met de taal als ik

wie praat zo mager met de taal als ik

hoe graag had ik niet ooit

hoe graag had ik niet ooit

had maar ooit een enkel mens mijn lichaamshandmens

want een hand voor mij is witter

een hand voor mij is witter dan een bloem.

Imogen Heap - Oh Me Oh My

Quiet now in sleepy dreams

To me it seems the only time to be

Just me

Bombarded by the phone, in my own home

Can't get the space that I need

And how I need it, yeah

Oh me, yeah, oh my

Oh me, me, me, me oh my

Oh when I look

When i look at my life

Oh me, oh my

When i look at my life, yeah lalala

Crowded by the city, all around me

Need some silence from the loud

And noisy crowds

And i'm trying to catch a breath through the air of death

Can't see the sun for the clouds

Those dirty clouds

And the night has no compassion for your actions

When you're trying to get away

From the hard day, yeah

And i need someone to talk to apart from you

But i guess that's just the way

Come what may, oh

Oh me, yeah, oh my

Oh me, me, me, me oh my

Oh when I look

When i look at my life

Oh me, oh my

When i look at my life

Oh God

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

No, yeah

God

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

Yeah

Are you out there

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

If so where are you hiding?

I'm having trouble finding you

Oh me, oh my

Oh me, me, me, me oh my

Oh when I look

When i look at my life

Oh me, oh my

When i look at my life

Oh God

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

No, yeah

God

Are you there

Are you there

Are you there

No

Are you out there

Are you there

Are you out there yeah yeah

Are you out there yeah yeah

Are you out there hmm

Are you out there

Are you out there
