In my room - TFK

Denne songen traff meg rett i hjartet i dag tidleg. Eg plar alltid høyre på musikk på veg til jobb, og dei siste dagane har eg lytta mykje til den nyaste plata til Thousand Foot Krutch. Dette er eit av mine absolutt favorittband, og songen "In my room" har eg høyrt fleire gongar. Likevel var det som om eg plutseleg høyrde teksten for første gong, og verkeleg forstod kva den handla om.

Ein del dagar er akkurat som dette. Teksten i songen utgjer eigentleg ei bøn, og orda passar inn i min eigen lengt, min eigen svakhet og mitt eige ynskje om eit møte med den Heilage Gud.

Og dei gode nyhendene er: Når vi ber Gud inn i våre rom, så kjem han!


In my room - Thousand Foot Krutch

They say that You created all,
My voice must sound so small,
In between heavens walls,
But they said You knew my name

And they say that your love has no end,
And that You can heal the past,
With just one touch of Your hand,
Does it matter if I was to blame?

I've been trying to erase myself
By trying to be someone else
They say there's no hope for me
I guess this must be hell

They make me feel so empty
Their words, they cut like knives
You tell me to forgive them
But I'm not sure I'll survive
I'm not sure if this is a good time
Or even if your home
It's a long, long way from Your throne but...

Can You meet me in my room?
A place where I feel safe
Where I don't have to run away
Where I can just be me
Can You meet me in my room?
A place where I feel strong
A place where I belong
And I can call my own
I wait for You...

They say You're always there, You never leave
Even when we don't believe
And that sounds like love to me
I know I couldn't do the same

And they said that You can see my heart
Then You already know I'm falling apart
That's why I hide here in the dark
So no one has to see my pain

I've never prayed, so can we just talk?
Don't wanna put You on the spot.
But can You bring the keys to my heart
And help me find the way?

They make me feel so empty
Their words, they cut like knives
You tell me to forgive them
But I'm not sure I'll survive
I'm not sure if this is a good time
Or even if your home
It's a long, long way from Your throne but...

Can You meet me in my room?
A place where I feel safe
Where I don't have to run away
Where I can just be me
Can You meet me in my room?
A place where I feel strong
A place where I belong
And I can call my own

[2x]
Won't You meet me, meet me in my room
Where there's no one else allowed but You
I've been waiting for so long to meet You
I'll be waiting...

In my room...
Won't You meet me, won't You meet me in my room
I'm all alone, and I'll be waiting.
