I sit on the porch with the lights on again
Thinking about my newly lost friend
Building a fort around my heart
For someone to rip and tear apart
Who will save me from my tower
Share their blanket by my fire
The longer you wait, the stronger it gets
To break and crumble and shatter to bits
Who will be my supernova
Sweep me away like Casanova
Blow away these walls of stone
Take me home and make me their own
The moon is fading fast tonight
Trying to stay but losing the fight
The darkened sky holding on
Holding to the one he loves
These walls I've made are meant to hold
Protect me from all of those once cold
Guarding my heart beneath my chest
Waiting for you to beat my best
The concrete is cold as I stare
Towards the stars in unaware
They're so bright and so far away
But soon some day I'll find the way
Who will be my supernova
Sweep me away like Casanova
Blow away these walls of stone
Take me home and make me their own
The moon is fading fast tonight
Trying to stay but losing the fight
The darkened sky holding on
Holding to the one he loves
Truly Free
I had tried my best but I always fell
My mind is weak from fighting my own hell
Long ago I lost sight of your holy face
Please save me with your celestial grace
The evils of men shall always haunt me
But through my god will I be truly free
The days seem long without your guiding hand
Should I believe in your heavenly plan
Will I be able to hold up and stand
Can you make within a worthier man
My heart is willing but my body faint
For far too long have my beliefs been taint
Too hard a road for my weakened being
Help me yearn for spiritual healing
The evils of men shall always haunt me
But through my god will I be truly free
The days seem long without your guiding hand
Should I believe in your heavenly plan
Will I be able to hold up and stand
Can you make within a worthier man
Ordinary
Please God I want you to see what I'm going through
I don't know what I did to make them all argue
Please do what it takes to make them all stop
It's painful to see all our friendships get lost
I just want them to be happy
Please give me the strength to carry on now
I want them to see, I want them to know
The better part of me
I'm trying to let them all inside of my thoughts
But it is hard when even I get lost
Don't they see how hard it is for me to fit in
I can see them, but can they really see me too?
Please God I want them to know what I have seen
I want them to know it's just my mask and not who I am
The light that's inside and the dark I can't hide
It all pours into my emotional cry
I just can't ever win
The cuts are too deep and the pain is too great
It doesn't make up for decisions I've made
Just help me let them in
I'm trying to let them all inside of my thoughts
But it is hard when even I get lost
Don't they see how hard it is for me to fit in
I understand them, but do they understand me
Let's just stop, hear me out
There's no need for us to shout
I can help, just hold my hand
It's easier to understand
What's wrong with my mind
It's a race against time
Before I'm lost in this place
Look at me in the face
See these eyes, Feel my warmth
I'll let you decide if I am real
I'm ordinary, just like you
Ordinary
Ordinary
I'm trying to let them all inside of my thoughts
But it is hard when even I get lost
Don't they see how hard it is for me to fit in
I understand them, but do they understand me
Breaking Habits
I'm battered and broken
I'm sick and unspoken
I'm tired of trying
Of living and dying
I tremble and I shake
I cringe and I quake
I get up to fall down
Smiling through my frown
How much more can I take
Before I have to break
This life I live is full of trauma
Things I've made but soon I'm gonna
Break my habits of right and wrong
Break my habits and stand still strong
I fumble and I learn
I push back and turn
I stand up and fight
I crawl through this life
How much more can I take
Before I have to break
This life I live is full of trauma
Things I've made but soon I'm gonna
Break my habits of right and wrong
Break my habits and stand still strong
This life I live I cannot take
I have to leave, I wanna break
Break the habits of right and wrong
Break these habits once and for all
How much more can I take
Before I have to break
This life I live is full of trauma
Things I've made but soon I'm gonna
Break my habits of right and wrong
Break my habits and stand still strong
This life I live I cannot take
I have to leave, I wanna break
Break the habits of right and wrong
Break these habits once and for all
Distraught
How can I express
My feelings inside
My feelings of love
My feelings I hide
I thought I was better
I thought I was cured
And in a sense I was
But not free like a bird
I learned how to control
My pain I hide
To push it away with
One deep sigh
I always had one
To share these thoughts to
But now you are gone
So what do I do
I'm happy when I'm with you
And worried, when I'm not
How could you have done this to me
Without you I'm distraught
How can I express
My feelings inside
My feelings of love
My feelings I hide
I thought I was better
I thought I was cured
And in a sense I was
But not free like a bird
I'm happy when I'm with you
And worried, when I'm not
How could you have done this to me
Without you I'm distraught
I'm happy when I'm with you
And worried, when I'm not
How could you have done this to me
Without you I'm distraught
You're the One (T. Jensen & S. Barrington)
You’re the one who showed me the light
Gave me something to hold when I’m scared at night
You’re the one that showed me how to smile again
Showed me the meaning of a true best friend
You’re the one I’ve dreamt about
The only one I can’t live without
You’re everything I need
Everything I see
Everything I want to be
You’re everything, everything to me
I’ve tried so long to find my way
Tried to find all the words to say
You took the pieces of my broken heart
And showed me that love doesn’t have to hurt
You’re the one I’ve dreamt about
The only one I can’t live without
You’re everything I need
Everything I see
Everything I want to be
You’re everything, everything to me
You’re my dream come true
And all I’ll ever need is you
From Above
When we look to the skies
We are looking for your light
Do you see our tear soaked eyes
Feel our pain and hear our cries
Your star has given all of us this
Hope and faith and love on earth
You taught to share and do goodwill
Until perfect we need you still
The bells are ringing
The people cheering
Your spirit has come
Hearts in rejoice
By the sound of your voice
Your spirit has come
Will we choose the path of wrong
And stray from our shepherd's song
Or choose the path of all that's right
And follow our lamb and his light
The bells are ringing
The people cheering
Your spirit has come
Hearts in rejoice
By the sound of your voice
Your spirit has come
Fire Inside
Why do you look so sad today? -- today
What can I do to wash your fears away? -- away
Life can sometimes be so hard
But how you react determines who you are
So why do you look so sad today? -- today
I’ll hold your hand
I’ll help you stand
Through this rainstorm in your heart
I won’t leave you here
Alone with your tears
I’ll stand by you when life hurts the most -- when life hurts the most
Why do you say these things you say? -- today
What can I do to make you feel safe? -- safe
You have what you need for you heart
To feel the start of a brand new day
Family and friends surround you today… -- today
I’ll hold your hand
I’ll help you stand
Through this rainstorm in your heart
I won’t leave you here
Alone with your tears
I’ll stand by you when life hurts the most -- when life hurts the most
This fire inside will always burn…
So live, laugh, love and learn
As the Months Go By
September came to early
October fell too late
Please help me for I am lost
Standing in front of heaven's gate
Wondering how they all got in
Why death only saved them
One hand was all that I needed
In those darker summer months
I'm drowning in 6 foot water
With no place to stand
Looking up through the glaze
For someone's caring hand
November slept to easy
December woke too late
Please help me I am dying
Standing in front of their door
Hearing the children crying
I'll never forget those painful months
All the senseless fighting
Just know that in my heart I'm
I'm drowning in 6 foot water
With no place to stand
Looking up through the glaze
For someone's caring hand
September, October, November, December
Please forgive me I'll always remember me
Deeper Side of Love
The way you look tonight
You're beautiful in my eyes
The way you move across the floor
You have a beautiful soul
I wish I could see more of you
I want to mean the world to you
I don't ever want to say goodbye
So stay with me tonight - tonight
The way you dance tonight
You're shining in moonlight
The way you make me feel
I know this love is for real
And I want to hold your hand
And I want to be your man
I don't ever want to see you leave
So stay the night with me - with me
So kiss me once and kiss me twice
Promise me you'll stay the night
I want to feel your lips on mine
I want to feel our hands entwine
I don't want to see you go
So stay tonight and you will know
The deeper side of love
The deeper side of love
