I Celebrate the Day-Relient K

And with this Christmas wish is missed
The point I could convey
If only I could find the words to say to let You know how much You've touched my life
Because here is where You're finding me, in the exact same place as New Year's eve
And from a lack of my persistency
We're less than half as close as I want to be
And the first time
That You opened Your eyes did You realize that You would be my Savior
And the first breath that left Your lips
Did You know that it would change this world forever
And so this Christmas I'll compare the things I felt in prior years
To what this midnight made so clear
That You have come to meet me here
To look back and think that
This baby would one day save me
In the hope that what You did
That you were born so I might live
To look back and think that
This baby would one day save me
And I, I celebrate the day
That You were born to die
So I could one day pray for You to save my life

Ya know, Reliant K is REALLY good at writing lyrics.

Years after I kind of stopped listening to them, I still get this one song stuck in my head...

"And I will go
To under go a surgery
To purge me of this lonely mood
And my ego
The status quo
Provides me with
A decent attitude"

etc etc...I don't know what the title is but I always remember it for the excessive references to Jefferson Airplane (my dad's favorite band).

That song is actually called Jefferson Aero Plane. In case you were ever wondering...

Right. I wasn't sure, but I thought that was what it was.

In anycase, good song. Good good good.
