Yeah, Another Song

Every time I listen to this song another lyric pops out at me. I'll bold the ones that I have thus far. This Derek Webb CD is really speaking to my life right now Not like ministering to me, but I connect with it in that it expresses much of my emotion. This is the first time I've felt this way about music the way so many teens (and young people) seem to. This song capturs how I feel like much of my early life was.

"A New Law"

don’t teach me about politics and government
just tell me who to vote for
don’t teach me about truth and beauty
just label my music

don’t teach me how to live like a free man
just give me a new law

(pre-chorus)
i don’t wanna know if the answers aren’t easy
so just bring it down from the mountain to me

(chorus)
i want a new law
i want a new law
gimme that new law

(vs. 2)
don’t teach me about moderation and liberty
i prefer a shot of grape juice

don’t teach me about loving my enemies

don’t teach me how to listen to the Spirit
just give me a new law

(pre-chorus/chorus)

(bridge)
what’s the use in trading a law you can never keep
for one you can that cannot get you anything
do not be afraid
do not be afraid
do not be afraid
