"we're all dealt our Lumps of Coal, What you do with it can turn beautiful."
That above statement is from the song Nice Naïve and Beautiful. The Artist is Plumb, the entire album is good, I also recommend Candycoatedwaterdrops.
Enough with the sales pitch. I really really love this song, and I will post the entire thing at the end. I really have been thinking a lot since my last posts.
So anyway, I just got back from the student retreat. I was not expecting what happened. We were completely challenged in our faith. I was in tears usually by the end of every session.
ONe of the things was dealing with Hurt, and this song popped into my head. it's late here so I don't really have much to say, but I think this is pretty thought provoking.
She's only known heartache and pain
But she's never known pain like this
She stands alone defending her name
When all that she's done is be who she is
Well is it so wrong to be who we are
When all she's done is fail
Cause she's so nice, naïve and beautiful
Why does she get taken advantage
Why does she live in a world so cold
She takes advantage of the nice, naïve and the beautiful
Cold is the throne of her hardened heart
No one has seen the softest part
Day after night she holds an ache
And won't budge to show this secret place
Well is it so wrong to hang on to hurt
Maybe she could set it free
Cause she's so nice, naïve and beautiful
Why did she get taken for granted
Why did she live in a world so cold
He took advantage of the nice, naïve and the beautiful
If you've been there you know
If you're still there hang on
We're all dealt our lumps of coal
What you do with it can turn beautiful
Well there's a life outside of this madness
And there's a face behind every scar
But there's a love overflowing with gladness
Get out of that place that's restraining your love
I said get out of that place
that's restraining your love
The Bridge is the really important part. Just mill over that a bit. I'll post part two Monday
