wake-up call


Sometimes things are overwhelming and there seems to be a billion things on your mind. You worry about what will happen and you make plans hoping that it won't fall apart, but I guess we've only got one chance at life, and there's no time for worrying and regrets. I guess when it comes, it'll come. I think my biggest fear is failing. Failing and not meeting expectations, of disappointing people and myself. There are so many things that I want to do. I just want to experience so much, but there are only 24 hours in a day and I'm only one person.
I want to think that I have it all figured out, how my life's going to be and how I'm going to get there. I kept telling myself that I didn't need anything. I think the biggest thing I've lost right now isn't my academics, my family or my friends. I have that. The biggest thing I've probably neglected is probably my faith. And isn't it ironic that a non-Christian told me to reconnect with God? Even he thought it was weird that it came from him. I just feel like I've lost direction when I thought I had everything right within my grasp.
I need to just admit
my faith is paper thin
I'm feeling so burned out
On religion

I say an empty prayer
I sing a tired song
I need to just admit that the passion's gone

And I want to get it back

You told me
Look for You and I will find
So I'm here
Like I'm searching for the first time
Revive me, Jesus
Make this cold heart start to move
Help me rediscover You
