Monster

Listen to this song
In this strange tangle of love
I'm learning now to see
In this weird change of space
I"m learning to believe in this life
I'm living, I feel you helping me

If I were a monster
Would you wince
When you looked at me?
If I were a freak would you stare?
If I were a leper
Would you say unclean?
If I was lost,
Would you help me get free?

Time and space are closing in
And their turning me weak
You and me are making friends
Just learning how to be
I learn from you and
You're watching me
This is the way to be

This is real, this is now
I don't wanna go, I hold on
You let go, will I ever know?

When I am a monster
You never wince
When you look at me
When I am a freak, you never stare
When I am a leper
You never say unclean
And when I am lost
You come and get me free

Are you ready to live your life?
Are you healed enough?
Can you stop?
Can you stop and enjoy the ride?

The Almost. The new CD of theirs called “Monster, Monster” just came out.
One of my friends played me this song a couple of weeks ago. As I listen to the lyrics the more it makes me want to go. Go and write my book. Go and be apart of something bigger than me. Go and attempt what I am pretty sure I am not capable of. Go forward. Forget what is behind me and see the story im in.

I like the end of the song that questions the listener. Because the answer should be a yes to all the questions. It’s a matter of being aware that your soul is ready to go. So go wherever.

Because when Jesus looks at us He believes in us. I think we don’t believe in ourselves that we can be like Jesus. He said we would do greater things than Him if only we would follow.

For we are all monsters, but He would never wince.
And we are the freaks whom He would never stare at.
We are the cleansed leper touched to be clean.
I have been lost, can I be found?
It is for freedom you have set us free.
