Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fingertips trace the edge of paper  thin...
Six months since you walked out on your promise of what I could win
Left me wondering what I Should do
Tears are falling now...because we are through...

[Pre-Chorus]
I almost called you late last night
Like I had found a way too put things right...
But the phone just hummed its lost tune
And I let it ring as If you'd answer soon...

[Chorus]
I TRIED SO HARD,THAT THE THINGS YOU SAID
WOULD NOT BE TRUE
You’re gone—but not gone enough to forget
Not here—but not ENOUGH TO STOP REGRET



[Verse 2]
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW YOU MADE ME FEEL...
By the time you know
I won't  be here 
Even if you try too understand...
just walk away like you have planned.


[Pre-Chorus]
The moon tonight wears the same tired face
As the one that watched you walk away
I count its cracks instead of sheep
Hoping numbness might finally speak.

[Chorus]

I TRIED SO HARD,THAT THE THINGS YOU SAID
WOULD NOT BE TRUE
You’re gone—but not gone enough to forget
Not here—but not ENOUGH TO STOP REGRET
Not here—but not ENOUGH TO STOP REGRET

[Guitar Solo]


[Bridge]
Maybe hope is just grief wearing a disguise
Smiling through the ache like it’s telling lies
But I found your photo tucked in a book
And for once—I didn’t look.....

[Chorus]

I TRIED SO HARD,THAT THE THINGS YOU SAID
WOULD NOT BE TRUE
You’re gone—but not gone enough to forget
Not here—but not ENOUGH TO STOP REGRET
Not here—but not ENOUGH TO STOP REGRET

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
One day I’ll light this page
But not tonight
Not tonight…

Not Tonight.

Initiation is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to this path. As soon as we have faith in a guru and the willingness to serve and to follow, then our relationship with our Guru has been established. But the particular ceremony, the particular offering of initiation is a deep, sincere, lifelong commitment to follow. ‘yasya prasadad bhagavat-prasado’ to please our Guru, and please all the previous acharya and Krishna, though the sincerity of our efforts, 
So these vows that are taken, sometimes Prabhupad would call them rules and regulations. And especially Srila Prabhupada explains from Krishna’s words in Bhagavad Gita ‘raga-dvesa-vimuktais tu’ these are the regulative principles of freedom. They're not meant to bind us, they're meant to the parade us because we're already bound. Sometimes people think that these rules and regulations are too restrictive. But the reality is we are already restricted, our hands, our legs, our heads, our feets, our hearts, our brains, every part of us is shackled, like prisoners of Maya’s dictations. And whatever principles there are in Bhakti, are there to liberate us from those shackles, liberate us from that bondage, so that we could actually be free to live by the real spirit of the soul, to be free, to love Krishna, to be an instrument of Krishna’s love and to be happy, to be free from the fear of death and all the uncertainties of life. So, we're taking vows for this purpose.

Initiation Is The Beginning Of A Lifelong Commitment

So, if we are bored, if we are not finding ecstasy and excitement and adventure at every moment, that means we are not Krishna Conscious. That means we are still material conscious, it means we are forgetful of Krishna, it means we still have to go through all these artificial devices just to forget the boredom, the frustration of the bodily concept of life.  It is a fact. So, while we are in this state, a devotee wants to purify his senses by always engaging them in the loving service of the Lord, by worshiping the deity, by having wonderful wonderful sankirtan with so many loving devotees, by hearing the glories of the Lord in the Srimad Bhagvatam, by engaging in the service of the Lord, whether it be cooking for the deities or cleaning the children’s toilets, a devotee simply feels such bliss and such love just by keeping his senses always with Krishna in His service. Nothing is ordinary.

Nothing Is Routine For A Devotee

This is the mission of the lord in this age of Kali yuga. So, the first thing that is required is, we must be personally very enthusiastic to come together to chant this Hari naam and must live a very pure exemplary life for others to see, we must be willing to be instruments to assist according to our capacity in whatever way to give the mercy of the lord to the suffering people of this world; by somehow inducing them, convincing them, attracting them to chant Hari naam. Srila Prabhupada said, the whole purpose of all of his books, the whole purpose of all of our preaching, the whole purpose of all our activities is simply to induce people to take shelter of the chanting of the holy name of Krishna, Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare.
