Welcome to my life

Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you
Do you ever wanna runaway?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like

To be like me
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
With no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desparate to find something more?
Before your life is over
Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like

To be like me
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
With no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face
No one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I'm happy but I'm not gonna be okay
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
Never had to work it was always there
You don't know what it's like what it's like

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
With no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like, what it's like

Welcome to my life [x3]


was listening to this the other day...
i think its really quite sad but true.. ppl all around us are hurting and hurting each other... and all we do is ignore and continue on with our own lives because we don't know what it's like...
and then i think that if this song were sung to christians it would be quite true... cos' most of us have NEVER had it tough, and if we have we try not to show it in church, so church becomes a place not for ppl to be given a chance, to be "saved", but just another place to try to be better...
heh, who am i to talk... i'm not much better... but i can't help but notice... that when life sux, the first ppl i go to aren't christians... but my other "normal" frens who would understand wat i'm going thru without telling me how i should be behaving or doing stuff...

mm hmm, amen, amen. it can get quite stiffling at times yah, living out the "christian code of conduct" =p

mOkKiEs said...

another out-of-nowhere thought which shouldn't be read too deeply into: are christians sometimes quicker to judge others for their shortcomings? bleh.

hmm..somehow, it's quite true. Me same case here of going for 'normal' friends for comfort, advise, etc. when having tough times =P

mOkKiEs said...

hahaha, "abnormal" christians?

Þ¤®†ë® said...

heh... nice to know i'm not alone:P... umm... yeah, i think its true that christians do judge other's quicker, but again.. who am i to talk... i'm supposed to be-all-holier-than-anybody-else-mr.president of TU rite?

haha..the 'to be-all-holier-than-anybody-else-mr.president of TU' sounds so pressuring. almost like being a pastor's kid.
hmm..dun u think most ppl in church seems like the 'happy go lucky' type?

Þ¤®†ë® said...

actually in our church, yeah... more happy go lucky... but still sometimes i do feel pressure to be "good"...

WOW!~

i never thought that you would be a person who would post a song in his blog.

anyway, you'd be surprised to know that among the worst people you can meet in life are Christians. sad to say this, but it's really. people who preach what they believe, and live a totally different lifestyle.

*sigh*

it's life lah. i can relate with you, Zhi-Yong. continue depending on God!


BC?
