Lesson 6
“THE UNKNOWN”
My song “The Unknown” is my most pivotal song of mine. The lyrics became a script that propelled me to transform my life. Willingness to change my mindset was the first step. Most humans avoid change and fear what is unknown. It’s easy to accept familiar misery because the unknown might be worse; it is scary and unpredictable. Making a decision to change something in your life might seem scary, but doing nothing and remaining complacent is also a decision. Taking a leap into the unknown can apply to many other things. For me it was ending my marriage, but it could also apply to a living situation, job, relationship or anything that is uncomfortable. From the moment I was ready to face the unknown, I became determined to see it as a challenging adventure. Instead of stepping off a cliff to fall, I was determined to fly. I hope I can inspire you to find the courage and willingness to choose a different path on your life’s journey when you are ready.

lyrics

THE UNKNOWN

I go through my day to places that heal me
I cannot stay, you no longer feel me
My words will stun you, ‘cause I’ve begun to
Leave you behind; I escape in my mind

My tears I hide when you are near me
I cry inside where you can’t hear me
I’ve watched you brood; avoid your mood
There’s no connection without affection

I run from you; don’t know where to
The touch you withhold leaves me cold
That’s when I withdrew
I feel so alone; your heart is like stone
I lie awake and feel my heart break
I’m ready to face the unknown

I’ve known you so long I must alert you
This feels so wrong I hate to hurt you
With all this pain, I can’t remain
You might not miss me, ‘cause you never kiss me

I run from you; don’t know where to
The touch you withhold leaves me cold
I’ve stopped loving you
For years I stayed, ‘cause I was afraid
don’t even know where I will go
But I am ready

The touch I crave
has made me so brave

I run from you; don’t know where to
I lie awake and feel my heart break
I’m ready to live on my own
I’ll face the unknown

about

Judy Unger Los Angeles, California

I have been an artist all of her life. Although I played classical guitar in college, I left music behind when I was 21. 30 years later, I began writing songs to help me cope with the challenges in my life. Many of my songs are dedicated to my son, Jason, who died in 1992. I love to inspire hope of healing with my music, because my songs have certainly healed me of any pain. ... more
