So i had to speak to the youth tonight. It is probably the last time i will be able to speak to them sense i talked to the acting leader tonight about just volunteering my time rather than being a full fledged sponser... it was sad... for the second time in three years of helping out i felt like he really cared. I always knew that the youth pastor cared... as well as his wife, but Michael? the only other time in three years he has looked at me with consern in his eyes was when i told him (and Tony and Susan) about my "wonderful" Christmas break. Then and there i could tell Michael cared... and again tonight... i knew without a doubt he did.
Because i talked about Jacob i had a song stuck in my head... for about two weeks on and off... the funny thing is.. i need it. This week was rough on me. Almost every line is where i am.. or at lest where i was at the begging of summer and just kinda gave up...
Closer to myself
Kendal Payne
Digging deep, I feel my conscience burn
I need to know who and what I am
This hunger jolts me from complacency
It rocks me, makes me meet myself
Jacob walked a limp to remind him
Of the greater gift of the greater one
But when I fell, I fell to my own resources
How can I carry a truth, if I can't even crawl to you?
Chorus:
I wanna feel something sweeter than this sin
Cover me in leaves and roll me over again
I've been everybody else now I wanna be
Something closer to myself
La de da de da da da
La de da de da da da
La de da de da da da
La de da de da da da
Paint me in a different light
Shed me yet another coat of skin
Mark me with ash until I'm clean again
Cause I'm so sick and tired
Of being sick and tired
I know I can love you, I know that I can
I wanna feel something sweeter than this sin
Cover me in leaves and roll me over again
I've been everybody else now I wanna be
Something closer to myself
La de da de da da da
La de da de da da da
La de da de da da da
La de da de da da da(x2)
I wanna feel something sweeter than this sin
Cover me in leaves and roll me over again
I've been everybody else now I wanna be
Something closer to myself
I wanna feel something sweeter than this sin
Cover me in leaves and roll me over again
I've been everybody else now I wanna be
Something closer to myself
