AMANDA LEE - (New Song & Inspiration Behind It)

* Thank you for all your comments! :-) Really, I read through all of them. I guess I should clarify a bit about the inspiration of why I wrote this song. My retail job was just a catapult of the apathy I had been feeling. More than just the job itself, I think it is the aspect of dealing with so many people. It can be draining. Especially those who take advantage of your service, treat you like you are beneath them, or steal from you. I would never compare the pains of my retail job to those endure much more. I was just being honest. I'm really not complaining. :-) Thanks for those who were concerned and think I should leave my retail job. It's actually a tolerable job compared to most I've worked. But one day, I dream to leave 9-5's and pursue music full time and tour all over... so i can come sing to you all lovely's LIVE! :-)

LYRICS: (© 2009 Amanda Lee)
Sometimes I wonder if I've lost all good
That maybe this world has gotten to me
THe whole while I thought
That I carried a full bucket
I look, it is dry

Oh fill me, with spirit I once held before
Oh heal me, with love that is so much greater
Better me, better this wicked inside of me

I must have lost focus
Driven by my selfish motives
Life spilled drop by drop
I let my heart harden
And now I don't know what I feel inside, inside

Oh fill me, with spirit I once held before
Oh heal me, with love that is so much greater
Better me, better this wicked inside of me

Awesome songs you always put so much heart/soul/feeling into your songs! ♥

My sister wonders if you have studied music and if you think that people can pursue a music carrier without studing music? (like in music schools) not courses.

[amandaleemusic]

i was a music major for the 1st two years i attended college, but it was not a music school & i did not finish. in my opinion, you don't need a degree to pursue a music career (unless you want to teach music). musicians now a days make it independently. you may learn more about the business and networking side of the music industry in a music school. but if you are determined enough, and work hard at your art, you can definitely still pursue music! good luck! hope i helped.
