"Bring me to Life" by Evaneescence

I think this is a beautiful cry, and prayer, to God.

It reminds me of a Psalm from the Bible.

How can You see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading You down into my core,
Where I've become so numb

Without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until You find it there, and lead it back Home.


[Wake me up] Wake me up inside.
[I can't wake up] Wake me up inside
[Save me] Call my name and save me from the dark.
[Wake me up] Bid my blood to run
[I can't wake up] Before I come undone
[Save me] Save me from the nothing I've become.


Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to Life.


[Wake me up] Wake me up inside.
[I can't wake up] Wake me up inside
[Save me] Call my name and save me from the dark
[Wake me up] Bid my blood to run.
[I can't wake up] Before I come undone
[Save me] Save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to Life.
I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside.
Bring me to Life.

Frozen inside, without Your touch
Without Your love, Darling.
Only You are the Life among the dead


All of this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark, but You were there in front of me

I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems,
Got to open my eyes to everything.

Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here,
There must be something more.
Bring me to Life.


[Wake me up] Wake me up inside.
[I can't wake up] Wake me up inside
[Save me] Call my name, and save me from the dark.
[Wake me up] Bid my blood to run
[I can't wake up] Before I come undone
[Save me] Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to Life.

I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside
Bring me to Life.

God has placed this dream in me. A dream to work with those who are broken. I don't know who they will be. People struggling with addictions, people who are handicapped, people old, people young, kids, abused, those broken...

Ha, just people.

All have a story,
all of us are struggling in some way.

I just want to help people.
Listen to them.

Fight with them

Show them Christ and His heart for them.

Work with those who know they are broken. Who feel hurt by this horrible world. Who know they need Christ.


I would love to work at Teen Challenge, maybe for a little bit. Or somewhere like that. With people struggling with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, etc. Anxious messes like me. ... Who knows what God has.

For now, just enjoying all I learn in my Psych classes and enjoying every chance God already gives me each day to just love. Whoever it is He places. All of us are struggling.

Thankful that He loves me AS I AM, the anxious mess I am, and that He just wants to bring me Home to His arms.

I want to show all those others who are struggling to see, show them He, too, loves them, just the way they are.
