Oh my restless soul............

I have to watch what kinds of music I listen to because it touches my heart, and is so powerful to me. This song is in the LDS movie Charly that I love.It is a beautiful, tear jerking love story! If you haven't seen it please watch it! I was watching it with the boys, and stopped and started the movie a million times so I could write the words to the song down. I told them before I did it that it would probably be annoying, but they love me so they would get over it. A few minutes into the process Jake said you were right Mom, this is annoying!


Restless Soul
(Cherie Call/Alexander Jenkins)

I think it's time to look inside myself
In truth I think I'm scared of what I'll see
Facing this discrepancy of what I am
And what I want to be
Staring at the mirror with this heartless gaze
I can read between the lines
That go along the forehead of this anxious face
That isn't even mine

Oh, my restless soul
Trying hard to take control
Worn out from standing still
Knowing what I am and hoping that I can find
A way to make it real

I think it's time to look inside my heart
To face the insecurities I hide
Still it seems so hard to struggle past the gates
That are guarded by my pride
Looking at the self that no one else can see
Maybe it was better to be blind
But the mirror in my hand is seen with different eyes
Reflecting only truth within my mind
