This song came from a time where I was just existing and trying to stay busy, I was just a happy zombie, but as the days went on, I remembered I once was alive

indie spiritual real creative dark christian fingerstyle emotional personal deep honest alt tuning capos

ForeverGrasping

Progressive finger-style guitar, with emotional melodies and raw, honest lyrics.

I invite you to amble through my world of raw, emotional and honest song writing. I hope it might strike a chord in you and be a little more like a flower among the thorns of unsigned amateurs here on SoundClick. Though I indeed am a unsigned amateur myself.

Lyrics

I hate it when I’m this way, and I am un-willing to change
Settling for apathy and a fatigued mind
I hate it when I am this way, and I just go on with my day 
Not praying a single thing, for I have forgotten how
I hate it when I am this way, and I do not know how to change
Not thinking of you for my brain is on empty
I hate it when I am this way, and I just go on with my day
Living like the world revolve around me

I have been this way off and on for so long
I have been this way mostly ‘on’ for so long
At first it did not bother me, but now the days go on endlessly
And I remember the life, the peace and joy and the fire that was within me

So I know there is more then just existing and trying to stay busy
And I know there is more then just surviving and trying to be happy
I know there is more for I have tasted of it before, I’ve tasted of so much more

I remember being alive, I remember being alive, 
Having your peace guarding my soul
Even when I was busy I was in a Spirit of prayer
Your joy was flowing deep within me
I remember being alive, I remember being alive
I had so much life I could not hold it in
I was so excited about you Kingdom and ways
I was filled with a zeal and passion

So I know there is more then just existing and trying to stay busy
And I know there is more then just surviving and trying to be happy
I know there is more for I have tasted of it before, I’ve tasted of so much more

I hate it when I’m this way, and I am un-willing to change…
