Shadows – dying to get away

Somebody make feel alive and shatter me

If I break the glass, than I’ll have to fly

There’s no one to catch me if I take a dive

I’m scared of changing, the days stay the same

The world is spinning but only in gray

only

Somebody shine a light

I’m frozen by the fear in me

Somebody make feel alive and shatter me

(Shatter Me by Lindsey Stirling)


Have you ever heard a song for the first time yet felt you knew it? This song is written about a dancer imprisoned in a snow globe desiring to be set free from the gray but held back by fear.

It is true we cannot break ourselves from what traps us and sucks life from us like a spiritual vampire but we must play our part by at least desiring someone to break the glass keeping from the Light and Life.

It is true only God can break the glass and safely catch us when we fall up from the shadows to His Light. Only God can set us free if we are to truly be free.

I begin by praying God will give me the desire and courage to pray for Him to banish the shadows and set me free. Even from myself.
