“Cause I built my life around you”

“Church, Faith, God.”

I literally gasped when I read that line.

And I was taken back to the last time I played piano in a church building. I had gone to the church to return some things. I sat down to play and part of me knew it was goodbye. I sat there thinking about things had been crumbling for me for years. And like you it had gotten so hard to breathe there.

“I’ve gone as far as I can go”

“There is only one soul that is mine to save”

“My own.”

The whole progression of taking myself back. Belonging only to me. I have been working through this the last several years. This piece was like reading a beautifully written time line. And that last part “the landslide is you”. I’m getting there. Moving towards accepting that and internalizing that. This piece was moving and powerful.
