Thursday

Day 1...

Have you been walking on a surface that's uncertain?
I have...egg-shells.
Have you helped yourself to everything that's empty?
It's easy to convince ourselves that things will get better.
You can't live this way too long.
It's not living at all...just existing.
There's more than this, more than this.
And I've been wasting it by giving myself away.

Have you been standing on your own feet too long?
Standing doesn't happen when I'm on my feet...It comes when I'm on my knees.
Have you been looking for a place where you belong?
I've looked too hard and didn't see that it was right in front of me.

You can rest, you will find rest.
You can rest, you will find rest.

Have you been holding on to what this world has offered?
It's amazing to realize how much I am willing to pay for what I don't really need.
Have you been giving in to all these masquerades?
Facing the truth is never easy...and rarely is it pretty.
It will be gone, forever gone.It will be gone, it will be gone.

Are you carrying the weight too much?
Why can't I learn to just put it down and walk away? Pride? Stubbornness? Or is carrying the weight where I find my worth?
Are you running from the call?
As long as I run, I don't have to face the truth...and that means I don't have to face the fact that I might have been wrong.

Let this old life crumble, let it fade.
Let this new life offered be your saving grace.
Let this old life crumble, let it fade, let it fade.
