Lifeline - Brooke Fraser

I have this sinking feeling
Something's weighing me down
I am completely saturated
The waves are crashing closer
My feet already drowned
Doing the thing I said I hated

They've been swimming in the wrong waters
Now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to You, never letting go
'Cos I know that You'll lift me out

Have Your way here
Keep me afloat 'cos I know I'll sink without You
Take this ocean of pain that is mine
Throw me a lifeline

Wake up feeling convicted
I know something's not right
Re-acquaint my knees with the carpet
I have to get this out
'Cos it's obstructing You and I
Dry up the seas that keep us parted

They've been swimming in the wrong waters
Now they're pulling me down
But I am clinging to You, never letting go
'Cos I know..

That You'll have Your way here
Keep me afloat 'cos I know I'll sink without You
Take this ocean of pain that is mine
Throw me a lifeline

The above song is kinda related to my present mood/feelings/situation.

Beautiful singer/songwriter. Her songs are beautiful, sweet, and lyrically sophisticated (sorta. Well I think anyway). Her voice is beautiful (in a way.. but don't think it's opera or something! I just like the sound of it. Very.. soothing) . I first stumbled upon this song whilst listening to blessed 103.2, and loved it immediately! Debby kindly lent me her album, and all her other songs are just as good.

So if you get a chance, visit her website and get a copy of her album, it's awesome! She's also got a little blog going on, which is also highly sophisticated and yet hilarious at the same time.
