A newsboys song

Sometimes this song is so sickeningly true. Don't have much to say other than that, so here is the song.


Newsboys: Lost the Plot



When you come back again
would you bring me something from the fridge?
Heard a rumour that the end is near
but I just got comfortable here.
sigh.
Let's be blunt.
I'm a little distracted.
What do you want?

Headaches and bad faith
are all that I've got.
First I misplaced the ending
then I lost the plot.

Out among the free-range sheep
while the big birds sharpen their claws.
For a time we stuck with the shepherd
but you wouldn't play Santa Claus.

sigh.
Let's be blunt.
We're a little distracted.
What do you want?

Once we could follow,
now we cannot.
You would not fit our image,
so we lost the plot.

Once we could hear you,
now our senses are shot.
We've forgotten our first love.
We have lost the plot.

When I saw you for the first time
you were hanging with a thief
And I knew my hands were dirty,
and I dropped my gaze.
Then you said I was forgiven
and you welcomed me with laughter.
I was happy ever after.
I was counting the days
when you'd come back again.
we'll be waiting for you
When you comin' back again?
we'll be ready for you
Maybe we'll wake up when...
maybe we'll wake up when
you come back again.

lies.
Let's be blunt.
We're a little unfaithful.
What do you want?

Are you still listening?
`Cause we're obviously not
We've forgotten our first love
We have lost the plot.

And why are you still calling?
You forgave, we forgot.
We're such experts at stalling
that we've lost the plot.
lost the plot

When you come back again
would you bring me something from the fridge?
Heard a rumour that the end is near
but I just got comfortable here.

Worst Generation

I was doing stuff last night when I thought of something. But first I must explain myself here. Most of you have heard the term: “A man is only as good as his word.” Which means that a person is only as good as the promises they keep, even the little ones. And every little lie is a mark against him.

This got me thinking. Is our Generation then the worst the world has ever seen? Think about it. We are going to be a generation that lying is the norm, and that divorce will be the highest of any generation before.
So this Generation will be the great big black mark on world history centuries from now. People will read that we never kept our word on anything, that we did whatever we want without any care for others. We will be known for extremely high divorce rate, and for lawsuits over broken contracts, and nobody trusting anyone else.

I do not know what we can do about it, but be honest ourselves, and do not do anything to break contracts, or agreements. If enough of us do it we may be able to counter this overly dishonest Generation.

Anyone with me?
