The Gift

Have you ever listened to Blink 182 and thought "these guys must be Christians!"??? Me either.... But Blink 182 is broken up, maybe just on hiatus, either way, that sad turn of events has brought us Angels & Airwaves (same lead singer as Blink).

Angels and Airwaves probably has Christian and non-christian fans, but there's no denying that God is sending me a message through this song. Kind of a "Hey dummy, I'm always in the same place, you don't even have to look for me" message.... In my life I've hidden from Him, but one way or another, He always finds you. In songs, poems, people, he will find you. Lets just not hide anymore.



I wanna have the same last dream again
The one where I wake up and I'm alive
Just as the four walls close me within
My eyes are open up with pure sunlight
I'm the first to know
My dearest friends
Even if your hope has burned with time
Anything that is dead shall be re-grown
And your vicious pain, your warning sign
You will be fine

Hey oh here I am
And here we go
Life’s waiting to begin

Any type of love it will be showed
Like every single tree reach for the sky
If you're gonna fall
I'll let you know
That I will pick you up
Like you for I
I felt this thing
I can't replace
When everyone was working for this goal
Where all the children left without a trace
Only to come back as pure as gold
To recite this all

Hey oh here I am
And here we go
Life’s waiting to begin
Tonight
Hey oh here I am
And here we go
Life’s waiting to begin
Tonight
Hey oh here I am
And here we go
Life’s waiting to begin

I can not live, I can't breathe
Unless you do this with me
I can not live, I can't breathe
Unless you do this with me
I can not live, I can't breathe
Unless you do this with me
I can not live, I can't breathe
Unless you do this with me
I can not live, I can't breathe
Unless you do this with me
I can not live, I can't breathe
Unless you do this with me

Hey oh, here I am (do this with me)
Here we go
Life's waiting to begin (do this with me)
Hey oh, here I am (do this with me)
Here we go
Life's waiting to begin
Life's waiting to begin -McPike
