LIFE ON THE MOON

"Life on the Moon"
(Sung by David Cook, 2008)

Here in this crowd, I'm feeling all alone
Turn me around, and point me back to home
I'm getting lost more everyday
and I can't tear myself away
From the stars in my eyes with no light

Here are my terms, have some faith in me
And I'll let you be who you need to be

Life on the moon
Couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon
Wouldn't feel as far away
The life that I knew, it's through
And I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
It's like life on the moon

Float off the ground, my hands up in the air
Self conscious to a fault, with all them people everywhere
It's getting harder every night,
to take the punches left and right
Just to know that you're here by my side

Here are my terms, have some faith in me
And I'll let you be who you need to be

Life on the moon
Couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon
Wouldn't feel as far away
The life that I knew, it's through
And I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
It's like life on the moon

Getting lost in my own atmosphere
Stars in the sky are the stars in my eyes
It's the cost of getting out of here alone

Life on the moon
Couldn't be any stranger
Life on the moon
Wouldn't feel as far away
The life that I knew, it's through
And I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
Life on the moon
The life that I knew, it's through
And I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
It's like life on the moon

This song has been ringing in my ears for the past 2 weeks... I guess I'm just hearing a lot of David Cook music. But beside that, I guess I am relating myself to the song, with everything I've been going through in work, in ministry, in love life, in health... I really believe I relate..

A mass of people mill around you everyday and yet you feel alone. You have no definite person to run to and just pour out your frustrations. Then your boss at work doesn't believe in what you're capable of. They don't see the innate talents that you have. All passion that you want done are discredited just because people around you does not believe you are good enough.

That's life.. On the moon as the song has sung... Craters all around.... Some too deep for you to even think of navigating... Frustrating like the surface of the moon...

Found this next picture in one of the DC sites... I liked it so I got it...
