Starfield cover
08. Ordinary Life
Album: Starfield
Artist: Starfield
         
 

Take me and invade me
Make me someone new
Wake me from the dead
And break me with the truth

Move me and disturb me
Interrupt my peace
Tear open my heart
And pull me to my knees

There's a world outside
That is burning
While I'm turning blinded eyes
While I stand by

I won't survive
To live this ordinary life
I'm not alive
To live this ordinary life

And I will try
To see this world I live in
With Your eyes
To love this world You've given
With my life
To see this world I live in
With Your eyes
To love this world You've given
With my life

Behind the Song:
""Ordinary Life" is about trading in the ordinary self-consumed life for a life saturated by grace and truth. This was a song that Jon and I co-wrote with our producer Matt Bronleewe with the intent of writing something 'up', something aggressive… outside of our usual mid-tempo bent...as a part of that departure I wanted to use language that was also aggressive and attention getting – to step away from the usual fair for the 'surrender song' and reach a little deeper into the 'song about surrender' lexicon. I like what eventually made the track...if not for any listener – for me. A lot of the time I need a little more than a gentle nudge from God...I get so lost in myself that I need to be disturbed, invaded, and broken...the ordinary is easy...the ordinary is what happens when we don't try...anything beyond that is reserved for those that truly seek to make a difference in the world. I want to be one of those people." - Tim Neufeld (Starfield)
