Manche Lieder drücken genau aus, was man denkt, was man fühlt. Dieses ist eines davon. Zumindest bei mir. :)
Jesus sagte schon, dass seine Leute nicht zu dieser Welt gehören (oder anderes übersetzt: "von der Welt sind"). Und an einer anderen Stelle in der Bibel heißt es, dass diese Welt nicht unsere Heimat ist, sondern wir auf die himmlische Heimat warten. Und je länger ich lebe, desto mehr sehne ich mich tatsächlich danach.
Where I Belong
(Switchfoot)
Feeling like a refugee
Like it don't belong to me
The colors flash across the sky
This air feels strange to me
Feeling like a tragedy
Take a deep breath and close my eyes
One last time
Storms on the wasteland
Dark clouds on the plains again
We were born into the fight
But I'm not sentimental
This skin and bones is a rental
And no one makes it out alive
Until I die I'll sing these songs
On the shores of Babylon
Still looking for a home
In a world where I belong
Where the weak are finally strong
Where the righteous right the wrongs
Still looking for a home
In a world where I belong
Feels like we're just waiting, waiting
While are hearts are just breaking, breaking
Feels like we're fighting against the tide
I wanna see the earth shaking
I wanna see a generation
Finally waking up inside
Until I die I'll sing these songs
Still looking for a home
In a world where I belong
This body's not my own
This world is not my own
But I can hear the sound
Of my heart beating out
So let's go boys, play it loud
On the final day I die
I want to hold my head up high
I want to tell You that I tried
To live it like a song
And when I reach the other side
I want to look You in the eye
And know that I've arrived
In a world where I belong
Where I belong
I still believe we can live forever
You and I we begin forever now
Forever now
Forever
I still believe in us together
You and I we're here together now
Together now
Together now
Forever now
Forever now
Forever
