about

This is a song of complete introspection. The lyrics really say it all... it trudges and slowly builds to a choir and piano crescendo. There are some more references to the thoughts put forth in the film "Donny Darko" of having to face the demon that we are.

lyrics

You woke the same today as you always do
You know what you believe and you should follow through
Running away from who you are
Running away from all you could be

And all the money in this whole world won't save you from yourself
All the pride in this whole world won't save you from yourself

Tear it down (come on and be who you are)

Reach across to the mirror and touch your hand
Look yourself in the eye, see how you stand
"I am less than me
I am less than I was created to be"

And all the money in this whole world won't save you from yourself
All the pride in this whole world won't save you from yourself

Tear it down (come on and be who you are)

about

The Longing Selmer, Tennessee

The Longing is music by John and Yvonne Cullimore.

We seek to bring music that will connect with you both in sound and poetry, melding loops and beats with hammered dulcimer, 12-string guitar and layers of vocals and harmonies.

More importantly is that we enjoy our music, and can use them for worship and prayer. We certainly do hope and pray that you can do the same.
