 alright lets give it up for some old school switchfoot. whenever i listen or read their lyrics i find new revelations about God and myself. its rad.

"home"

It's a long way from Miami to LA
It's a longer way from yesterday
To where I am today

It's a long way from my thoughts
To what I'll say
It's a long, long way from paradise
To where I am today

All that's in my head
Is in Your hands

It's a long way from
The moon up to the sun
It's a longer ahead of me
The road that I've begun

Stop to think of all the
Time I've lost
Start to think of all the
Bridges that I've burned
That must be crossed

Over, over, over
Take me over

I've been poison
I've been rain
I've been fooled again

I've seen ashes
Shine like chrome
Someday I'll see home
Home, home

I can see the stars
From way down here
But I can't fall asleep
Behind the wheel

It's a long way from the
Shadows in my cave
Up to Your reality to
Watch the sunlight taking over


"let that be enough"

I wish I had what I need
To be on my own
'Cause I feel so defeated
And I'm feeling alone

And it all seems so helpless
And I have no plans
I'm a plane in the sunset
With nowhere to land

And all I see
It could never make me happy And all my sand castles
Spend their time collapsing

Let me know that You hear me
Let me know Your touch
Let me know that You love me
Let that be enough

It's my birthday tomorrow
No one here could now
I was born this Thursday
22 years ago

And I feel stuck
Watching history repeating
Yeah, who am I?
Just a kid who knows he's needy

Let me know that You hear me
Let me know Your touch
Let me know that You love me
And let that be enough

hoorah for switchfoot. i wish they played here more frequently....next time they're here i'm so going to see them again. its been like...9 months since i last saw them with noise ratchet. wow. anyhoo...thats pretty much it. i'm going to the beach tomorrow.

ugh, i have to skip the sunday show because i have to drive up to riverside for orientation the next day and my mom is being all stupid. so i get to crash in a hotel for a whole afternoon, bored out of my mind. so whatever. it sucks. but tomorrow will be grand. yay.
