Lyrics

I lost track of me along the way
With all these broken parts I try to play
Desperately divided / I live a shattered life

Let my worlds collide
(Come together, crash into each other)
Let my worlds collide
(Can you ever bring me back together?)
Let the sparks fly, hear my heart's cry
Let my worlds collide

Light the secret corners of my heart
Reveal the lie that's tearing me apart
Rescue me, remind me / There's nowhere left to hide

Chorus

Savior, healer / You are I Am
See me, the real me
Come and make me whole again

Chorus

Story behind the song...

When writing this tune, I was fed up with duplicity in my life. My divided heart was ready for change. I knew something had to give. So I threw it all into the light. It was risky and messy… and the catalyst for change.

It's scary to put things into the light.  Besides, secrets seem to serve us well... but not really. Peace with ourselves and God is only found in the light. When I took risks of exposing things, it caused sparks with people who were surprised at my behavior. That was uncomfortable yet good as it forced me to make decisions.  You see, once things are out in the light, it's hard to put them back in the dark again. Things change forever. It helped me move forward. And I definitely found out who my friends were!  Oh yeah... and shame disappears in the light.

Be brave. Don't settle. I'll try to practice what I preach.
