Story behind the song

I woke up in a bad frame of mind, stressed, late, and down, I thought to myself, "am I gonna live this day, or will the day live me?"

Lyrics

Will I Live
					
 words & music by:  Dave Hall, (C)2000, 2005


Will I live— live this day?
Or will this day—live me?
Waves of sorrow, clouds of doubt	
Lead me to----Passivity!

There’s a reason this morning—finds me guilty
And feeling like I am--- such a wreck
The lies I buy one thousand times
They still bite me--- still bite me on the neck

CHORUS:

	How  could I be so blind
	Time after time
	Thinking I could still live on my own
	But You pulled out
	How could I ever doubt
	And how will I live this day –this day

Numb and floating—so aimlessly
Driving faster than light—but asleep at the wheel
Another rude awakening
Once more I’m forced—I’m forced to face what is real
   (repeat Chorus)

Now I am back---yeah, on my two feet
And it’s only because You--- brought me to my knees
Lord, don’t ever let me forget the days
Of drifting--- of drifting out to sea
