Send "Life" Ringtone to Cell

You cannot fully live
without
knowing what you're here for
right now

you're not here by accident
life lives

if you don't know the way
and you're lost
this truth will bridge the gap
carry you across

you're not here by accident
life lives

life lives

Send "Life" Ringtone to Cell

    General Comment:Life is about living.

    "You can not fully live without
    Knowing what you're here for right now." = No matter how old you are, you will find your purpose in life.

    "You're not here by accident
    Life lives." = You have a reason for being alive. Life goes on.

    "If you don't know the way and you're lost
    This truth will bridge the gap and carry you across." = If you're lost the Truth of God will help you figure it out and the direction you're supposed to go.

    "You are here, You are here
    Don't you know? You are here
    You are here, He gives you life!" = You're here, you're alive, you're breathing, don't you realize that? Just by living is already great enough, and HE gives you the right, you are alive, be thankful!

    General Comment:When I first heard this song, I was so disappointed that I wanted to delete it from my playlist, but after listening to it a few times, it became my fave Flyleaf song. Even though it has short lyrics, they are powerful. They are telling us that God has put us all here for a reason and that we should live our lives to the fullest. We all need to figure out why God put us here, so that we can fully live our lives . God will lead the way to a productive life.

    General Comment:I love this song. I can't believe no-one's commented on this. Well the song is self- explanatory. It means that you can't enjoy life without knowing why you're here.
