I wrote “Resurrect Your Heart” in August of 2017. It was inspired through my work with healings and tarot readings. I am often working with people who are experiencing love relationship difficulties.
Note: I just released a studio recording of Resurrect Your Heart (May 2022). Click here to stream it on my shop page.
Our “egoic” selves are conditioned to look for fulfillment in the world.
The trick is, it’s not there! Unless you’re talking about the kind that comes and goes.
If you’ve ever bought a brand new car, you’ll know the “new car smell” eventually fades.
We need to find the source of Love and Happiness within our own beingness. The kind of peace that is unshakeable.
“Resurrect Your Heart” is about finding that Love within. I know there’s a whole movement these days that says love yourself. And that can be confusing. Who is loving who? What part of you is loving some other part?
We already ARE the love that we seek. And the more we remember that, the more love we have to BRING to relationships instead of looking to GET love from relationships.
And in my experience, the more I realize the truth of my nature (this is not an intellectual realization, it’s directly experienced when thoughts slow down) the more relaxed and less fearful.
This in turn leads to others feeling better when they are around me, which simply becomes an upward spiral.
Sidenote: You don’t have to formally meditate to experience your thoughts slowing down. You can easily do this through saying “yes” to the present moment. Letting go of resistance to “what is” is my favourite method and the one I use most.
You can also do this in flow state such as when you are deeply engaged in an activity like gardening, playing sports or playing guitar.
That’s basically what “Resurrect Your Heart” is about. I’ve had times in my life when I didn’t know what I do now. At least not through my own direct experience.
I unwittingly believed (due to conditioning) that love was somewhere in the world. This leads to disappointment and even “bad” choices.
Often this pain is what leads us to question what we were taught, and to turn around and look within. We want to free ourselves from the unnecessary pain and suffering.
But then once you find the love inside yourself, you just want more of it!
And you want others to find it too! So that’s why I wrote the song “Resurrect Your Heart.” No matter where you are, how long you’ve been there, in whatever dark place, you can resurrect your heart.
And since we are spiritual beings having a human experience, all is well and unfolding as it should.
Hope you enjoyed this article and my song “Resurrect Your Heart.” Please share it with others if you think they will too. See the lyrics below.
Resurrect Your Heart
Crash tested heart
Crushed to dust
You thought it was different this time
You believed those kisses said she loved you
Your frozen limbs and bottled tears a nightmare of your worst fears
How could a lover do this to ya’?
ooh ooh the shadows grow blacker in the night
ooh ooh when you’re afraid of morning’s light!
Chorus
When there’s so much pain hey!
Things never seem to go your way
Don’t you know you can resurrect your heart?
When there’s so much pain hey!
It never seems to go away
Don’t you know you can resurrect your heart.
Verse
Why comb your hair?
Says a ghost of despair
your mind can’t find a signal
Why did someone take your disadvantage?
Yes, take some time to clear your mind
Some things no longer serve you
But don’t get stuck in those voices in your head
ooh ooh the shadows grow blacker in the night
ooh ooh when you’re afraid of morning’s light…
Chorus=>
Bridge
‘Cos you’re not alone
So many hearts have been there
One day you’ll know
that true love lives inside you
no one can forsake your love
no one here can break you…but you!
Chorus=>
Outro
cos it’s your heart now and you can
resurrect your heart if you play your part
it’s your heart now and you can
resurrect your resurrect your heart
‘cos it’s your heart and you can
resurrect oh resurrect your heart
if you play your part now you can
resurrect your oh resurrect your heart!
