Switchfoot - The Blues (with lyrics)

Song "The Blues" preformed by Switchfoot, From their album "Nothing is Sound". With pictures and lyrics. Thank you for watching!

Is this the new year or just another night
Is this the new fear or just another fright
Is this a new tear or just another desperation

Is this the finger or just another fist
Is this the kingdom or just a hit and miss
I miss direction most in all this desperation

Is this what they call freedom
Is this what you call pain
Is this what they call discontented fame
It'll be a day like this one when the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in

I'm singing this one like a broken piece of glass
For broken hearts and broken noses in the back
Is this the new year or just another desperation

You push until you're shoving
You bend until you break
Do you stand on the broken fields where your fathers lay
It'll be a day like this one when the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in

When the world caves in
Yeah
When the world caves in
When the world caves in

Is nothing here worth saving
Is there no one here at all
Is there any net left that could break our fall
It'll be a day like this one when the sky falls down
And the hungry and poor and deserted are found

Are you discontented
Have you been pushing hard
Have you been throwing down this broken house of cards
It'll be a day like this one when the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in

Is there nothing left now
Nothing left to sing
Are there any left who haven't kissed the enemy
Is the new year or just another desperation
Yeah yeah

Does justice ever find you
Do the wicked never lose
Is there any honest song to sing besides these blues
And nothing is okay until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in

[ColtsFan1912]

one of the best song ever in my humble opinion. so honest.

species, but...a creative species, created in the same likeness as our creator, God. He won't let you down, man. I really encourage you, whenever you're ready or right now to just try Him. He really is waiting for you to just turn to Him and believe because He believes in you and will never stop loving you :-) No matter what has happend in your life, God still loves you and has a plan for your life because you really mean something to Him. "we were meant to live for so much more" :-) God luvs u!

miracles because I believe in Jesus, who gives is life and life more abundantly. It takes much faith and integrity, but He never fails. God will show Himself to you wen you open up to Him. No other "god" can do that. I encourage you not to rule Him out of your life :-) I don't believe in evolution though. Something can't come from nothing. "unassuming chemical reaction"--um...where did the chemicals come from? what gave the chemicals intelligence to react, etc? We are not an evolutionary

[PrettyTiaF]

As harsh as it sounds, the wages of sin is death. So I have to answer yes to your first question. Bad things happen because in our ignorance, we push God away and His protection. You say the Bible is full of contradictions? Can you prove that to me? Yes, many religions tell different stories about God and include the virgin birth, but they rnt correct. The Bible is God's-honest truth. There are no lies. I don't believe in miracles because I want to believe in a better life. I believe in

@PrettyTiaF And whats more fascinating? There could be others like us out there! Conscious sentient self-aware beings, hoping that they are not alone, just like we hope we aren't. And to think that God created this entire Universe, just to pry into our social lives, what we do with our genitals, checking to see if we sinned? Doesnt that sound petty to you? It does to me! It seems very very petty. I am sorry if I have offended you in any way, I am just speaking my mind.

[ai1888]

@PrettyTiaF There are billions of stars, galaxies and yet unexplored areas of space. There are 1000s of molecules performing intricate work at the molecular level, and there are 1000s of species yet to be discovered. Here we are, born of the beautiful process of evolution, from just an unassuming chemical reaction, and now we know how we came to be! Isnt that wonderful? I mean the entire cosmos would have no meaning until our consciousness arose!

[ai1888]

@PrettyTiaF Your story as proof of god is what is called the "argument from ignorance/ personal incredulity". You cannot declare that there was no possible way for your mother to have gotten pregnant, just because you or a few other doctors could not explain it, and then invoke the supernatural. I am really happy that you are alive, and you were conceived but what about a million other babies NOT conceived? There really is something more than this boring life out there..cont

[ai1888]

@PrettyTiaF The so-called miracle stories that you claim to be exclusive to the Christian God is actually pretty common in the Eastern part of the world in India. 1000s of Godmen share the same virgin birth story, with death and resurrection, infact even before Jesus was ever born. This is no co-incidence, we like to believe in miracle stories because we want to believe that there is something more than this boringlife. But wanting more doesnt make it true..

[ai1888]

@PrettyTiaF Children dying is proof of how corrupt we are? Excuse me? So the earthquakes and the tsunamis are also because of our corruption right? And bad things happened because of the victim's ignorance? Do you know how insulting that sounds to the family of the victims? The god of the quran is contradictory, agreed, but it is kind of ironic that you think the Judeo-Christian God is not. The Bible is rife with contradictions.

[PrettyTiaF]

My story...and I hope this gives you a new perspective...is that my mother was DONE with having kids. She had the surgery done--or either my father had surgery done on his you-know. Everything was sealed up and there was no possible way for my mother to become pregnant. Guess what ? I came later! Some people say "aw, pshh medical mystery!" To them, I say, open up your eyes! Its a miracle from a God who loves me enough to push past the doings of mankind so I can be here in the world...

states that those who do not believe in "allah" are "infedels" and should be eliminated. That's why there are terrorists. In the name of "allah," they are eliminating the infedels. God is love. He is just, as well. And He is faithful to his word. He is the same yesterday, today, and always. Apparently, the muslim "god" changes from love to hate if one doesnt believe in him.  But God isn't like that. He loves the saints AND the sinners..
