I hate that song "realize" by colbie callet(sp?)

There are summer nights, chilly summer nights, on freeways at about 10 at night... when you've just separated with whom ever you've spent the day with and you think to yourself why am I alone right now? I hit realizations all day everday. I volley in a violent way, like a pinball, from realization to realization and often the lightbulbs that appear over my head contradict each other till I end up, late at night, on an inner city highway without a conclusion and alone. It's the kind of sensation that makes me want to pull my car over, hell maybe even stop it in the middle lane, get out of my vehicle and shout out over the overpass "I AM RIGHT HERE!" as though the whole world were looking for me and I'm indignant upon its blindness. Amongst my daily realizations there's really only one I'm looking for and it's the realization from something out there beyond that overpass, further than those streets can take you, deeper than any person sleeping through any window. I have my redemption and my glory in my Lord, but every now and then I want to be acknowledged by the world. A selfish, foolish craving... and attention-seeking motive, but if the majority of your life is lived passively... is it too much to ask?
