Song Clip: Real Audio

Today I woke up early, today I woke up sad
It's funny how it hurts me, the love I've never had

But I can feel You breaking me through this mess
Yeah, I can see You through this loneliness

{Chorus}:
Show me that
Life shines with You
You show me that
Life shines with You
Break me through

I think that I can hear it
Is it a trumpet or a train
And now I'm drawing near it
I think it's calling out my name

I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to prove in this mess
I got nothing to lose
But this emptiness

If I had a ladder
To reach up to the sky
I would climb up there forever
It would just be You and I

And I would feel You
Breaking me through this mess
Yeah, I would see You
Through my emptiness

Bebo's comment on the song: Regardless of how good my circumstances may be, there are inevitably days when I wake up sad or lonely or empty for reasons that I don't really understand. This song was written on one of those days. It's basically a prayer to the Giver of peace to break me through my loneliness.
