a song edited into context.

I can't believe I'm 20...
Sigh....a birthday blog?! This is so lame, and it makes me feel old and cliche. But a song popped into my head that suddenly opened my eyes, and I want to share it. What am I making out of my life anyway? Like usual, I'm thinking that my priorities have been mixed up. I'm pretty bad at balancing. I'm sure glad God's got a hand on things...

Wish I had what I needed
To be on my own
Cause I feel so defeated
And I’m feeling alone
And it all seems so helpless
And I have no plans
I’m a plane in the sunset
With no where to land
And all I see, it could never make me happy
And all my sandcastles spend their time collapsing
Let me know that you hear me
Let me know your touch
Let me know that you love me
Let that be enough

It’s my birthday tomorrow
No one here could know
I was born this tuesday
Twenty years ago
And I feel stuck watching history repeating
Oh am I just a kid who knows she’s needy?
Let me know that you hear me
Let me know your touch
Let me know that you love me
Let that be enough
