sixpence none the richer

Dizzy
I'm like Thomas's doubting fingers
running the scars Your wrists and side
touching flesh will make my mind believe

I want to be like David throwing his clothes to the wind
to dance a jig, in my skin
to be re-made by your cleansing again

I gave you myself
it's all that I have
broken and frail
I'm clay in your hands
and spinning I can see all
is it only Israel
for you my love

I want to be like David throwing his clothes to the wind
to dance a jig, in my skin
to be re-made by your cleansing again

Breathe Your Name
It's every day
I'm in this place
I feel this way
I feel the same
It's every day
I'm in this place I feel this way
I feel the same

Is it all inside my head
Is it all inside my head
I view my lips
And take my pick
I view my faith
And make a choice
'Cause it's nobody else's but mine

But you are in my heart
I can feel you're deep
And I lose my mind
From behind the wheel
And I lose control
I can only breathe your name
I can only breathe your name

So many days within this ways
I need the truth
I need some grace
I need the path
To find my place
I need some truth
I need some grace
The part of you
That's part of me
We'll never die
We'll never leave
And it's nobody else's but mine

You are in my heart
I can feel your beat
And you move my mind
From behind the wheel
And I lose control
I can only breathe your name
I can only breathe your name

You'll view their lips
And take your pick
You'll view my faith
And make a choice
'Cause it's nobody else's but yours

You're in my heart
I can feel you're deep
And you move my mind
From behind the wheel
And I lose control
I can only breathe your name

'Cause you're in my heart
I can feel you're deep
And you move my mind
From behind the wheel
And I lose control
I can only breathe your name
I can only breathe your name
I can only breathe your name
I can only breathe your name


Within a Room Somewhere
I breathe the mist
floating about the stars
I can caress with velvet hands
I breathe the mist
floating within, without this pen
this pen between my fingers

Messiah
I know you are there
within, without me holding me
Messiah
I know you are there
catching, carrying
this beautiful mess

escape the pain
within a room somewhere
escape the pain
so deep inside the soul
I have no key
no map to find

Love
"You must be the seed. Descend into the earth.
Searching for the union of death, and then rebirth."

But I need love. It is patience, it is kindness.
I need love. It is rain after the dryness.
I need love. Sister Wisdom, help me see
It's the one thing that I need.The only thing that I need.

"The Harvester is near. His blade is on your skin.
To plant a new beginning." Well then let the cut begin.

But I need love. It is patience, it is kindness.

Hey Meghan, did you write those poems or are they lyrics from Sixpence none the richer? Whatever they are, I think They're pretty good!

Hey, I hope you don't mind I added you to my list... :S I don't know whether you'll get more hits that way, but we'll see... :)
Anyway, see you Sunday I guess?
