And i fall on my knees Tell me how's the way to be

Artist- Lissie
Song of the day- Everywhere I go

I've had one of those musical days where I've spent hours looking for a song and just can't find what i'm looking for. Mostly because I've been listening to the same four albums over and over and would love to introduce you to new music and new artists instead of repeating myself over and over. But now my sleeping pill has kicked in and I'm saying screw it, I like what I like today and really that's what this blog is all about. thanks to Spotify (if you don't have spotify or don't know what it is Google it immediately cuz it will changer your music listening life) I have been consuming large quantities of artists I love but am too poor at the moment to buy all the music my little heart desires. One has been today's artist and song. I was fairly ambivalent to the song at first but hearing it live and more of her story and sweet spirit, I couldn't get enough of it and most of her album. The video also makes me want to go on a solo adventure with a wild elephant...or watch "water for elephants again". But this song is how I seem to go back to feeling constantly throughout my life. I often walk through life only to realize, wait, what the hell am I doing? what should I be doing? is this who I'm supposed to be? who am i supposed to be? Perhaps you can relate. I seem to have to constantly fall on my knees and be like ok god, who am i again? cuz there's something about this world that makes it so easy to forget to somehow get lost in everything you don't remember if you are who you are or just pretending to be someone so people will like you more, so you'll like you more, cuz it's the social norm or cuz it's cool an alternative. whatever it may be whatever fog lines your path or lies line your heart, the cure (at least usually for me) is in taking a step back, falling on your knees and letting angels lead you back to your home. If you feel the same or wanna watch "water for elephants", this one's for you.



And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me all that i should know

And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me how's the way to be
To evoke some empathy

Danger will follow me now
Everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
Well this tired mind
Just wants to be lead home

And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me how's the way to see
Show me all that i could be

And i fall on my knees
Tell me how's the way to be yeah
Tell me how's the way to go
Tell me why i feel so low

Angels will follow me now
Everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home
Well these tired eyes
Just want to remain closed

I don't see clearly can't feel nothing no
Can't you hear me?

And i fall on my knees
And angels will call on me
Now everywhere i go
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home

And angel will fall on me
Everywhere i walk
Angels will call on me
And take me to my home

And angels will call on me
Now everywhere i go
Angels will follow me
Now lead me to my home
