walking away

No I just don’t wanna, so I’m walking away

There is nothing that you can do, I will not stay

No I don’t need drama, so I’m walking away

Yeah I am a girl with a lot on her plate

So just cut me loose, learn to tie your shoes

There’s somebody here, I’d like to introduce

So look in the mirror, look for the glass

‘Cause you’re not my problem, you are my last.

cake

To all the boys who want to have their cake and eat it, too…

I’m not for consumption

I won’t be your balm

Your rationality

Your wisdom

Your hope

Your comfort

Your shoulder to cry on

Your emotional support

Your best friend

Twice removed.

I won’t be your dumping ground

Your punching bag

Your go-to girl.

I won’t be the one you compare every girl to

And the one you run every one by.

I won’t be the one who calls you out

And tells you like it is

I won’t be your spare tire

Your back up plan

Your rainy day friend

Your platonic date.

Your argumentative buddy

Your movie friend…

I won’t be your cake.

theme song for today

In obedience to Jesus, there is just complete freedom; learning to love that freedom more and more as I embrace obeying Him.

Love this song.  Learning to let go more and more…

I’m being dragged down, down by the hand
The hand of a golden giant man
He’s crushing my knuckles
Splitting my skin, he says he’ll let go
If only I’d ask it of him

He says
Girl, it’s your call
You wanna fly
You wanna fall
So I shout
I wanna get away from you
As fast as I can
I tell my feet to move it
I hope they have a plan

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Are heading the right way

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Saved my life today

So now I’m free
Free
From the big bad giant
Who was stalking me
Thank you feet, for guiding me
I’m glad somehow I got brains down there, at least

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Are heading the right way

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Saved my life today

Sometimes I’m tempted
Sometimes I am
I would be lying if I said I didn’t miss that giant man
He was the line between pleasure and pain
But me and the feet have some years to reclaim

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Are heading the right way

These little black sandals
Are walking me away
These little black sandals
Saved my life today
