Call me a fanatic but I actually feel like I can die happy after seeing Lifehouse perform right before my very eyes this Saturday. They will be at the Araneta Coliseum on July 26, 8 PM. The minute I head about this, I knew I just had to be there. And I will!
Here's one more band (aside from Switchfoot, another personal fave) whose songs have inspired me and helped me through some of the toughest times of my life. Music is a very powerful tool, I believe, and I think it's important that we listen to that which will uplift us and not pull us down. Lifehouse's music is strikingly real about the heartaches and struggles of life, but their message is always clear: JUST LOOK UP.
Broken is currently the anthem of my heart. May I share the lyrics with all who read this? Whatever you're going through, no matter how spent you feel, regardless of how many disappointments you've faced, just hang in there. There's SOMEONE who cares and who will see you through.
The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time I am here still waiting though i still have my doubts I am damaged at best, like you've already figured out
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing With a broken heart that's still beating In the pain there is healing In your name I find meaning So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on I'm barely holdin' on to you
The broken locks were a warning you got inside my head I tried my best to be guarded, I'm an open book instead I still see your reflection inside of my eyes That are looking for a purpose, they're still looking for life
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing with a broken heart that's still beating In the pain there is healing In your name I find meaning So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on I'm barely holdin' on to you
I'm hangin' on another day Just to see what you will throw my way And I'm hanging on to the words you say You said that I will be ok
The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone I may have lost my way now, haven't forgotten my way home
Blog hopping here! Anyway, yeah, Lifehouse is a pretty cool band. I've heard some of their songs and they definitely have soul when it comes to their lyrics. Have fun this Saturday! Some of my friends are going too! =D Peace Out!
