Bittersweet, I could taste in my mouth.

And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
Was the hardest part

And the strangest thing
Was waiting for that bell to ring
It was the hardest part

I could feel it go down
Bittersweet, I could taste in my mouth
Silver lining the cloud
Oh and I
I wish that I could work it out

And the hardest part
Was letting go, not taking part
You really broke my heart

And I tried to sing
But I couldn’t think of anything
And that was the strangest start

I could feel it go down
You left the sweetest taste in my mouth...




I will find rest in the shelter of Your wings. I will find rest in the shelter of Your wings. I will find rest in the shelter of Your wings.

Hello again, Australia.

It's a day not only of celebration, but of remembering what it took to get us to where we are today. The lives that were sacrificed, the people that gave what they had, and the journeys that have been faced to label us as the 'land of the free.' I am a rich American. I don't struggle to make ends meet, I have a car, I live in a house, and I eat healthy food by choice every day. I take warm showers, I sleep on a soft pillow, and I have blessings that a tenfold every single day. But I am also an American who refuses to fall asleep. By fall asleep, I mean, conform to the reality of what is really going on. Are we really a country that remains free? Or is there now an element of fear as we live out or da...
