I really shouldn't miss you, but I can't let you go.

I'm pretty sure I would die without Rachel. Seriously. God is so good for sending me such a great friend. It's amazing when, after days like today, I don't have to explain myself because she already knows. Good times. Too bad I still feel sad and conflicted even after a crazy fun time. So much to take in.. so many decisions to make.. so much to think about. I think I'm tired.

"What I can remember is a lot like water
Trickling down a page of the most beautiful colors
I can't quite put my finger down
On the moment that I became like this
You see, I'm the bravest girl you will ever come to meet
Yet I shrink down to nothing at the thought of someone really seeing me
I think my heart is wrapped around and tangled up in winding weeds

But, I don't want to go on living
Being so afraid of showing someone else my imperfections
And even though my feet are trembling
And every word I say comes stumbling
I will bare it all
Watch me unfold, unfold, unfold

These hands that I hold behind my back
Are bound and broken by own doing
And I can't feel anything anymore
I need a touch to remind me that I'm still real

I don't want to go on living
Being so afraid of showing someone else my imperfections
And even though my feet are trembling
And every word I say comes stumbling
I will bare it all
Watch me unfold, unfold, unfold

My soul- it's dying to be freed
See, I can't live the rest of my life so guarded
It's dying to be freed
It's up to me choose what kind of life I lead

But, I don't want to go on living
Being so afraid of showing someone else my imperfections
And even though my feet are trembling
And every word I say comes stumbling
I will bare it all
Watch me unfold, unfold, unfold
