RESTLESS

I'm posting what the singer, TheBathroomGirl, wrote on his account when she sang this at YouTube. Read on and listen to her song.









This song was written around the time of the Burma Cyclone and China's earthquake last year. I was so touched that the song poured out with my tears and I sung it at fundraising events for both tragedies.



The ongoing Gaza tragedy bought this song to life for me once more and I guess what I'm trying to say is that, if something's bothering you or making you feel restless, don't try to ignore it... Being grateful and putting your problems in perspective is a good start to being happy, but I think we need to actively help others to be truly happy.



Please visit and support this website:: Restless Beings



It is a new charity called Restless Beings, founded and run by good friends of mine. They are brilliant, determined, and have pure hearts of gold. I'm proud to be associated with them.



Even if you have no money to giv,e it's not a problem. Just read up on their projects, keep them in mind, if you have any skills or ideas you can give, they would love to hear from you!




RESTLESS (lyrics)


God, can you hear me?


I feel so alone.


I don't know if help is coming.


Do they even know?Surely if they knew they'd come running


If only they knew, they'd give everything to me.


Chorus:


I am restless, as I toss and turn,


Try to tell myself that 'it's not my concern'


So I live my life, count my blessings everyday,


And that's all I can do... Anyway..



Skies are falling across the world


I think I can hear my calling


but I'm just a girl'Cos in my bubble,


when there's trouble I float away


High above, above it all... watching skies fall.. watching skies fall



I am pacing in and out of my conscience.


They are waiting for me to come to my senses.


We're hesistating, and God's wondering 'why?'...


Brothers and sisters come together and hold up falling skies...



Hey, can you hear me?


You're not alone.


Help is on its way,


so rest and take it slow,'


Cos there are people caring for you across the world


and they will try against the odds


To hold up falling skies... to hold up falling skies.
