Broken Sunday

I know some people might be surprised by this, but I actually listen to some secular music. There's some out there that is actually "Christian", but they don't say it, and some that are just spiritual. In my opion, music is spiritual and many bands use it as an expression of their hearts, so sometimes you see that what's in their hearts is not good, but sometimes it is.

Anyway, I was listening to Pandora, a site that is great for discovering music. You type in what you want to hear and it plays that, and music that is like it. So I hear the song "Broken Sunday" a lot by Saliva. I think the lyrics of this song are pretty powerful. I read that the writer of the song says it's about God. To me, I think it is about heaven because of how he says that this world is not our home. But it's also about God, because he won't leave us.



Here are the lyrics:



"Broken Sunday"
I looked up at the stars tonight,
To see your face and to feel your presence now,
I need you here right now..I came from a lonely place,
Windows strewn in my darkest hour now,
I need you here right now,
I need you here,
Cos you won't leave me lonely,
Cos I can't go on,
You won't leave me broken,
In a world that's not my home,
Cos I'll be gone,
Until forever,
I'll be home,
Goodbye my broken Sunday.

One love and one escape,
To another place where the pain and fear fade out,
I need you here right now,
I need you here cos you won't leave me lonely,
Cos I can't go on,
You won't leave me broken,
In a world that's not my home,
Cos I'll be gone,Until forever..
I'll be home, until my name is etched in stone,
Oh, and we will never be alone,
Goodbye my broken Sunday.
You won't leave me lonely,
Cos I can't go on,
You won't leave me broken,
In a world that's not my home.
Cos I'll be gone,Until forever..
I'll be home,Until my name is etched in stone,
Oh,And we will never be alone,
Goodbye my broken Sunday.
