More to life

Oh how you have to love getting to transfer over 600 songs from a device that you thought was useless. Thank you to my favorite science guy for fixing my first MP3 player ever and allowing me to get to my MP3s on it. Some of them are songs I just can't believe I have lived without over the last year and a half. Like the "Under the Scotsman's Kilt", how can someone not just enjoy the pure laughter this little song can provide?? Or the life changing lyrics of "Cows with Guns"? :-)

anyway...that is neither here nor there. I came across a song I forgot I had, yet it is just what seems to be plaguing my life these days. I think there is so much that can be said about the words in this song. Those that know me well know that I am always searching for something and it may be the search that I enjoy so much, but life can be so short and in reality we need to get as much out of it as we can.

Here are the words for you to read:

(There's Gotta Be) More to Life
by Stacie Orrico

Yeah... Ooo...

I got it all but I feel so deprived
I go up, I come down and I'm emptier inside
Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing
Why can't I let it go?

There's gotta more to life
Than chasing down every temporary high
To satisfy me
'Cause the more that I
Trippin up, thinking there must be more to life
Well there's life but I'm sure
There's gotta be more

I want something more

I got the time and I'm it wasting it slowly
Here in this moment, I'm half way out the door
Onto next thing, I'm searching for something that's missing

I'm wanting more

I'm always waiting on something
Betterr than this
Why am I feeling like there's something I missed
Something I missed

More to life...


Peace out my peeps. I hope you find all that you are searching for in life and that it brings you great joy.
