The Beautiful Letdown

It was a beautiful letdown, when I Crashed and burned
When I found myself alone, unknown and hurt
It was a beautiful letdown
The day I knew,
That all the riches this world had to offer me
Would never do
(Switchfoot, The Beautiful Letdown)
I was listening to this song yesterday with my two sisters, and I was just sitting there singing along, when the depth behind the song just hit me. I had heard it, I don’t know how many times before, but I just didn’t realize what the words meant until yesterday. It is about how, when you are a Christian you don’t belong in the world, you belong in Heaven and no matter how much you try; the world is always going to let you down. It is a letdown, but it is a beautiful thing to realize. If you haven’t heard this song look it up and listen to it, it has Amazing lyrics.
