it's only you & me

so, i found an old song i wrote last year. it sounds pretty emo, but i think it's bittersweet. and its hopeful. i think it describes our struggle in life to find meaning in everything but God. and in the end, at least in my experience, we find that nothing is ever enough. but its okay. it's not supposed to be. there is a peace i find in letting everything go and running into the arms of God. it's like nothing else in the world. so... don't take these words as some kind of emo, i want to die, kind of song. it's more like a reminder that this isn't as it good as it gets. there's something way better waiting for us beyond this life and sometimes, i just want to get there already!

chaos all around me
confusion in my head
sometimes i wish that i was dead....

then you would take me to that place
where peace pours out all around me
it makes me clean and new,
wipes away the red, erases all the blue.

and now its only me & you...
yes its only me & you.
so lets forget all of this,
lets just sit and let the light shine through.
lets forget all of this,
let me feel your love as it begins to sink into...
my callous heart.

chaos, chaos all around,
i want to scream, but i cant seem
to make a sound.

but can you hear my silent cry?
save me please,
oh God, i'm way too young to die.
lead me from the shadows of this dark, dark night.
please open up the blinds, wont you let in all the light?

i want to live, dont let me die
i know there's so much more to life
so let me be, and help me see
reveal to me whats beautiful and true
and remind me, its only me & you

whether i am here or there
i know that you're still everywhere
you're in my heart, nothing can tear us apart.

and if life is bitter or if its sweet,
i know that there is always room for you & me.
yes, its just you & me...

so lets forget all of this
lets just sit and soak up this new day
lets forget all of this, cause nothing really matters anyway.
its just me & you, today, tomorrow and always.

life is often misery,
and death is but a sweet release.
so take me to my resting place,
i long, i long for your embrace.
forever....
tell me, what on earth could possibly be better?
