Something More (Augustine's Confession)
by Switchfoot

Augustine
Just woke up with a broken heart
All this time
He's never been awake before

At thirty-one
His whole world is a question mark
All this time
He's never been awake before

Watching dreams that he once had
Feed the flame inside his head
In a quiet desperation of the emptiness he says...

"There's got to be something more
Than what I'm living for
I'm crying out to You"

Augustine
All his fears keep falling out
All this time
He's never been awake before

Finding now
His old dreams aren't panning out
All this time
He's never been awake before

But he's mad to be alive
And he's dying to be met
In a quiet desperation of the emptiness he says...

"Hey, I give it all away
Nothing I was holding back remains
Hey, I give it all away
Looking for the grace of God today"

I really need to get some Switchfoot, they have the most awesome lyrics.

Sorry I couldn't talk this afternoon, was a bit late for a babysitting job. You're right, we do need to hang out sometime soon, definitely don't get to talk enough. Free on Friday? Any time, any place? Heck, if Friday doesn't work for ya, name the day, chances are I'm free =P

Mmmm. Love music.

Listen to Fin by Anberlin. Not really the same idea, but just a good song with a religious theme.

I meant love Switchfoot. I love music too, but I specifically, in this case, love Switchfoot.

i love how lyrics can sometimes express emotions and thoughts SO much better than just writing aimlessly about looking for what you want to say, well not you personally but the general version of 'you'

and i really appreciated your compliment at the end of tutorial today. i love you too! and it felt good for me to give a hug. i dont think i'm giving enough of those lately and you really deserve one.

-HUG!-

Don't worry, that's what I'm here for. I'd be a bad friend if I could see another friend looking unhappy or incomplete and not do something about it. And I know what you mean, it totally feels amazing to give hugs. I don't think I hug people enough either...so consider yourself hugged in return!
