Music

I love music! I have a wide array of music, and I'm almost always listening to it!! Christian music is wonderful, it can portray some amazing messages and concepts. Often times it can move me into a place of worship. But I also get that from "non-christian" music. I often strive to find meaning, hope and "Jesus messages" from main stream music. I believe that people would be surprised what they find if they just flip the radio station. Anyway I got home today and turned on my ipod and I heard "bring me to life" by evanescence - the song struck me so hard all I could do was listen. For some reason Evanescence's songs have the ability to do that, they carry such powerful messages that can so easily describe the love of God!! As I listened to "Bring me to Life" I found it being my cry to God. So here are the lyrics:

Bring Me To Life

How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and
lead It back home

(wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I Can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I Can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

(wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I Can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I Can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch without you love
Darling only you are the light among the dead

All of this time I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought without a voice without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

(wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I Can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
Bid my blood to run
(I Can't wake up)
Before I come undone
(Save me)
Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
