World of Mine

Everybody wants to know exactly how it feels
To be in this place - well I dont know
I've been wondering myself
Everytime I go

I wanna tell you 'bout everything I've seen
I wanna tell you 'bout every place Ive been
I haven't even known what it means to
Walk in these shoes of mine

Standing on the corner watching as the world goes by
Sometimes I connect and sometimes I reflect and cry
I see myself in a wounded heart
All by myself in a crowded bar
To find a flicker in this fallen dark world of mine

For a moment you seem like strangers
Exchange a few words
And suddenly you share the same heartbeat
They look deep into your eyes, they ask
Does God hear me anymore
Why have I been denied

You wanna tell me 'bout every broken dream
You wanna tell me bout all the pain you've seen
You say
You havent even known what it means to walk
In these shoes of mine - but im trying.

Standing on the corner watching as the world goes by
Sometimes I connect and sometimes I reflect and cry
To see myself in a wounded heart
And be of help if I can do my part
To be a flicker in this fallen dark world of mine

A song which - ive literally played over and over again for the past couple of days - I just love it for some reason. So I thought I would have a space to put up the lyrics and see if I can just mull them over and get a grasp of what they mean.
