RIP MJ.

this song really makes me tear up - and no, not because Free Willy was such a touching film.
i've always wondered if this song was a cry from Michael Jackson - the real, confused and damaged person that was hidden beneath the superstar facade.
that's what i hear. a sincere call for something real and stable. i don't know what he believed about God, but i would have to say that this song is a clear indication that he needed and wanted Him whether he acknowledged it or not.

try to get past the initial weirdness of some parts of this video and see if you hear the same cry. maybe it's just me.

carousels...

and if i didn't have You as my guide, i'd still be wandering, lost in Sinai
or down by the tracks watching trains go by to remind me: there are places that aren't here.
i had a well but all the water left,
so i'll ask Your forgiveness with every breath.
if there was no way into God,
oh i would never have laid in this grave of a body for so long.








now go listen to mewithoutYou.

thanks, God, for unconditional love.

tears stream down your face,
when you lose something you cannot replace.
oh and the tears stream down your face,
and I...


tears stream down your face,
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
oh when the tears stream down your face
and I...




lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones,
and I will try


to fix you.

it would be just great if those high-falutin' office workers were let in on the little secret that landscapers are human too. i mean, what's your deal? thanks to us, the crappy landscape outside your cubicle window looks good. heck, we might even put flowers in for you to look at while you pretend to type up your TPS reports.
i promise that if you acknowledge me when i say hello, i won't throw dirt in your face.




*phew* i'm glad that's off my chest.
