These days are filled with cheap words.

Cheap Entertainment. 

Noise to drown out my heart.

Noise to distract me from these days.

It's easier to pretend they aren't slipping away. 

It's easier to think that this is just the way it is. 

But truth has held me since my youth. 

And this ache never dies. 

It grows harder to ignore. 

Too strong to bury beneath the world.

There's something trying to get my attention. 

It pulses through me. 

It makes me weak. 

Its truth unbinds these tears. 

Run, run, run...

But that won't change a thing.

Cover your ears and blind your eyes.

And Life slips by.

Wishing you'd have known...

the gift in it all. 

Wishing you'd have fought for what's precious. 

Quiet your lives. 

Listen.

There's no need for added noise. 

The air is buzzing with truth. 

It's revealing you. 

It's revealing Him.
