This Struck a Cord

For Christmas I recieved a few giftcards for music I've been really wanting to buy for a while. I was listening to the new Relient K CD and this song came on as I was driving out to meet J. It was interesting how much on the mark this song felt. I found the lyrics and decided to post them for everyone. I figure this will just save everyone time from having to search for them online.

Relient K - Let It All Out Lyrics
Album: Mmhmm


Let it all out
Get it all out
Rip it out
Remove it
Don't be alarmed
When the wound begins to bleed

Cause we're so scared to find out
What this life's all about
So scared we're going to lose it
Not knowing all along
That's exactly what we need

And today I will trust you with confidence
Of a man who's never known defeat
But tomorrow, upon hearing what I did
I will stare at you in disbelief
Oh inconsistent me
Crying out for consistency

And you said I know that this will hurt
But if I don't break your heart
Then things will just get worse
If the burden seems too much to bear
Remember the end will justify
The pain it took to get us there

And I'll let it be known
At time I have shown
Signs of all my weakness
But somewhere in me
There is strength

And you promise me
That you believe
In time I will defeat this
Cause somewhere in me
There is strength

And today I will trust you with the confidence
Of a man who's never known defeat
And I'll try my best to just forget
That that man isn't me (2x)

Reach out to me
Make my heart brand new
Every beat will be for you
For you

And I know you know
You touched my life
When you touched my heavy heart
And made it light

I wanted to hear this song really badly after you told me about it. I searched and searched the internet looking for some other than a sample, and I finally found the song. I didn't watch the homemade video it was attached to. I just closed my eyes and listened to the lyrics.

I know why it upsets you. It breaks my heart to hear it, too. I wish I could have listened to it with you, though, instead of listening to it alone. Somehow, I feel as if we can make it through this if we help each other. After I see you, I feel comforted. Even though I can't be with you the way I want to be with you, you still bring me a surreal calm. You comfort me.

And I miss you so much.

That "once a week" thing.. it's meant to be taken lightly, right? ;)
