The Chair ( a brothers burden)
about my brother who seems spiritualy dead and has no social life and hasnt fully transitioned into adulthood despite being 22. hes no diferent now than he was in High school as far as social life and responsibilties , and having a job.
The Chair
shaking off the dust
is a matter of letting go
so much a part of you
must cucifie the old
Put on the new man
the image of Christ
surrendering the fear
that is locking you inside
Get up from your chair
the world spins faster
with each vacant stare
get out of your chair
your life passes by
when your waiting there
alone (wasting away)
alone
Dont take it out on me
hearing the truth I speak
Ive wasted many years
so much that was so near
so you want to wash away
the pain of yesterday
why not embrace the present
getting lost in the gift
so you can forget
Get up from your chair
the world spins faster
with each vacant stare
get out of your chair
your life passes by
when your waiting there
alone (wasting away)
alone
I've heard your story
it doesnt seem fair
but neither is denying
yourself of the world
your not the only one
whose missing out
when you choose the safety
when you choose the chair
