Something pretty bad happened to her long ago. She clams up, she lost it, she'd rather be alone lying on the bed with those stuffed animals at home. Her old high school friends had all moved away. When they see her now they don't know what to say. They're so different now and she is practically the same. She's the girl who still lives at home she's left out and she's all alone working at the taco stand, fighting with her mom and dad.
I can see her sitting in the living room thinking of all of the things that she can't do not as long as she is living underneath their roof She's the girl who still lives at home mom and dad sent her to her room when they saw what she had done now she's just a skeleton. They say she's wasting away, she just stares into space everyday And you know she'd like to move away be on her own and she says it everyday she has plans to move away but you know she's gonna stay that way she's talking to her mom, she needs some help in the kitchen they're watching LA Law and cable television she says it's not so bad, you save a lot of money and she heard what you said but she's staring at nothing.Words & Music by Doyle Tallent, Becky Thurman & Geoff Thurman
Now and then I must admit
I hide behind my shallowness
I must confess I don't begin to say enough
I'll tell you of my lessons learned
But I may never quite express
That God blessed me far beyond
What I deserve
I often miss the chance to show my
Faith in Him
By failing to convey what I have seen
And then I wonder while I face eternity
How Jesus ever finds a way to intercede
For me
(Chorus)
What's He gonna say about me
When He weighs the works that
I have done
Against the words that I have
Failed to speak
What's He gonna say about me
When the chaff is sifted from the wheat
Will there be evidence that I believed
What's He gonna say about me
After this lifetime will come
The thankfulness that I forget
I will regret when I see clearly who He is
Then I'll know all I should have said
So I must choose to not neglect
But resurrect the praise for all He is to me
I often miss the chance to show my faith in Him
By failing to convey what I have seen
And then I wonder while I face eternity
How Jesus ever finds a way to intercede
For me, oh
(Repeat Chorus)
If I confess Him before men
He will confess me before the
Father in Heaven
(Repeat Chorus)
