One Republic Lyrics, for Say (all I need)

The lyrics that I posted here, I posted because it is how I really felt, how I feel, and what I need now, just to say and say all I need, to fall apart if I need to, to cry and to know that it's okay and it's safe to do. I need to "say" and get all that is inside tearing me apart outside where it loses it's power and then there are others to say "you're okay, you're going to get through this". I don't even need any advice, just listeners so I can just say;

Say (All I Need)

Do you know where your heart is?
Do you think you can find it?
Or did you trade it for something
Somewhere better just to have it?
Do you know where your love is?
Do you think that you lost it?
You felt it so strong, but
Nothing's turned out how you wanted

Well, bless my soul
You're a lonely soul
Cause you won't let go
Of anything you hold

Well, all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

Do you know what your fate is?
And are you trying to shake it?
You're doing your best and
Your best look
You're praying that you make it

Well, bless my soul
You're a lonely soul
Cause you won't let go
Of anything you hold

Well, all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

I said I all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

Do you think you can find it?
Do you think you can find it?
Yeah, better than you had it (Better than you had it)

I said I all I need
Is the air I breathe
And a place to rest
My head

Whenever the end is
Do you think you can see it?
Well, until you get there
Go on, go ahead and scream it
Just say it

Two Surgeries

I had two surgeries this week, one was routine and simple and one was anything but. One was planned for awhile, one was an emergency. One was removing a tiny irritating organ, one was removing a large pervasive tumor. One has left me weak and in pain and one has left me strangely peaceful and alive. There are many surgeries in life; the spiritual ones are the ones that are the most important, the most dangerous, the most tiring and bear the most fruit, yet often we concentrate and pray for the simple physical ones and allow the spiritual ones to slide. We don't go for the diagnosis, we don't put in the prayer requests, we don't put in the time, and as a result we don't get to experience the freedom and peace that could be ours. I think that's sad.
