Trading Yesterday

Wow. It's been so long since I posted. And I come on here with nothing really to say...

At the moment, the two songs with the most heavy rotation in my head and on my laptop are quite literally giving opposing messages. Story of my life I suppose.

Anyways, the first song is called Shattered by Trading Yesterday

And Ive lost who I am
And I can't understand
Why my heart is so broken
Rejecting your love
Without love gone wrong
Lifeless words
Carry on

...

All this time spent in vain
Wasted years
Wasted gain
All is lost
Hope remains
And this war's not over

Theres a light
Theres the sun
Taking all the shattered ones
To the place we belong
And His love will conquer all
Yes His love will conquer all



That one speaks about having hope and maintaining faith. The next song, however, does not. It is called My Ghost by Glass Pear.


Who can you trust, in this place?
In whom can I put my faith?
If you're real, then show me now,
Who you are.

How can I love, without grace?
Shine a light on your face,
If you're real, then show me now,
Who you are.

...

Who can you trust, in this place?
Where can I put my face?
If God is love, then why's the world the way it is?
