lyrics
one night i found god in my room all alone,
i said "oh my god!" and i shook in my bones,
since then i've been calm, waiting for to go Home
to my Oh My God when this life it is done.
i've been in love two or three times at the most,
suspicious of love, could it all be a hoax?
am i a dumb girl in my room, in the light,
concocting a love so i can't feel the night?
i like to crack smiles and i like to have fun,
two of my friends died at the edge of a gun,
have i forgotten how it felt to be stunned?
may it remain in my heart at the bottom.
i've wanted to die long as i can recall.
good thing that i never let the knife fall!
i wouldn't have known all the joy i do now,
joy to be alive, joy that cannot be bound.
i want to sing out to the sky, to the clouds,
i want to sing loud, make a thundering sound,
one day my sweet voice will be deep underground,
no one of god's gifts can we keep once we've found.
if i could give advice so that people could hear,
i would say "think twice before allowing fear
to creep into your mind and to color your life,
an action done in fear, it can never be right."
one night i found god in my room all alone,
i said "oh my god!" and i shook in my bones,
since then i've been calm, waitin' for to go Home
to my Oh My God when this life it is done.
