On my face...
are stories youve heard before
but in a different light
whose wrinkles arent the same
as anothers lifeless fight
(and in the face of others)
I see suffering eyes
and hearts that yearn
for something to hold onto
desperately-trying to learn
(still in the faces of some)
I see hate and regret and bitterness
whose ears turn to empty fillings
throughout the years of
yelling and fighting
resounding over the love of the One true giver
screaming and denying
the truth of the One who delivers
helpless and dying
yet still not believing in
the One who is The Forgiver
of all the past wrongs
giving us a home to belong to
of all the future failings
though undeserving as we
of all the internal questioning
now able to know our purpose
because without Him, we have no purpose.
Bonjour...
Please drop a drop in my bucket, merci.

Song: wrong direction
(chorus)
Ive been wrong
looking in the wrong places
running in different directions
Ive been wrong
looking to the wrong faces
running in different directions
Ive been wrong
vs.1
its hard to see/inside my mind
God knows my heart/and theres nothing I can hide
I cant cover up the lies that-
I can do this on my own
I dont need His help home
((chorus))
vs.2
He loves me strong/even when I dont decide
to follow like I should/I still try to hide
I cant cover up the lies that
I can do this on my own
I dont need His help home
((chorus))
tag:
But
I've been wrong
I cant do this on my own
I've been wrong
I need help
to find my way home
------------------------------------------------------------------
still working on that title ^^
DIARY PORTION:
So many times I try to run in two different directions when it comes to God and how I should live my life. Thats why so often I end up standing still, right where I dont want to be. I surround myself with distractions that only pull me down yet still I expect to be able to keep these things away? Is that not a little...well stupid?But thats what we do. We mess up, and God picks us up. Thats what is so ecstatically amazing about Him. No other person would help someone like me. Like me: a hypocrite, a sinner, a liar.
God is unmeritably great.

SONG: pull close
red haired boy
you caught my attention
something Im shy to mention
dimple smiled boy
youve got me wondering
if youre worth thinking
outside we havent met
inside,it seems our hands
will meet the air's demands
CHORUS
gravity pulls us close
like you hold me
but something pushes us away
like gravity pulls us close
something,I hope, stays
-----------------------
eh well I guess this doesnt need explaining....I didnt edit it that much, perhaps I will next time. Let me know your thoughts! thanks

Song: Should I tell
Pretty please tell me what you think of my lyrics! Friendly criticism is encouraged, thanks everyone!
-----------------------------------------------------------
sometimes I wish I could drive without stopping
or headlights would blind me
so I wouldn't have to think
sometimes I wish I could day dream forever
or my mind would take me
away without a blink
chorus:
If I tell you how I feel
would you answer coldly
If you'll let me explain
how I'm in this place
What If you answer honestly
there'll be nothing left but myself
so Is it worth the risk
or should I never tell
bridge:
place of lost
place of insecurity
where thoughts
come out purely

Song: We'll decide
vs.1
I'll keep your messsages
in my box
til you come round
I'll wait by your window
throwing rocks
til you decide
(chorus)
It's time
to find ourselves again
we'll do better than
when I left
with regrets
and I'll decide
to be here
if you'll agree
to stay dear
vs.2
You'll stand close
holding hands
in my mind
but you'll go away
with thoughts
the same as mine
I'll keep your messsages
in my box
til you come round
I'll wait by your window
throwing rocks
til you decide
(chorus)
It's time
to find ourselves again
we'll do better than
when I left
with regrets
and I'll decide
to be here
if you'll agree
to stay dear
vs.2
You'll stand close
holding hands
in my mind
but you'll go away
with thoughts
the same as mine
