When a weird song makes non-sensical "sense"...

the song i've included below is not going to make sense with the rest of what i'm writing today. well, it makes sense to me...perfect sense...it's just that some of the lyrics are a bit whacko. ;) a couple of times in the song, you get a sense that they are talking about "partying"...dancing, drinking...all that stuff. for anyone that knows me well, sarah and the party scene are about as odd a mix as a hot, humid day and a wool sweater. never the less, for some reason my heart swells to unmeasureable expanses when i hear it.

"i gotta feeling...that tonight's gonna be a good night". :) there are other references to just "letting go" and "diving in" to something that is...marvelous.

i know that they mean the party scene, but for this girl???...it's about jumping in to the greater party scene that's happening around us everyday...the god-party...the one that makes hearts come alive...that helps us to take off the false selves that we've worn for so long...an invitation to reallllllly get into it...and LIVE.

see 'cause every day i'm losing more and more control. and I LOVE IT!!! i've broken loose into being able to feeeeeeeeel. and that partnership with the truth my mind knows????...my heart experiences a living truth more and more.

the song is an odd pairing, i know. it's just that when i listen to it...how it builds and builds and then explodes...i want to scream out to god about how thankful i am for him...that he's not like religion says...that he's about so vastly much more than i ever dreamed...that i can even dream today because of him! it goes on and on... i just have the feeling that "tonight" (and the rest of my days) is good and moving even deeper and realer...because of him.

hehe...don't go watch the music video for it (i just included a live performance). although, if you want, it's the "life" that so many youth today think is "real". bummer...
