Member Lyrics

I
Sa gitna ng tahimik at malamig na gabi,
Nangningning ang bituin sa kalangitan.
Bumaba ang pag-ibig ng Diyos na Ama,
Ipinadala ang Kanyang Kaisa-isang Anak sa lupa.
Sa isang simpleng sabsaban, Hesus ay isinilang,
Ang liwanag ng mundo, sa atin ay ibinigay.

[Pre-Chorus]
Punuin ng galak ang bawat tahanan,
Isigaw ang papuri sa Kanyang kagalakan!
Sapagkat sa gabing ito ng Pasko,
Niyakap ng langit ang buong mundo.

[Chorus]
Magalak ang lahat, umawit sa Ama!
Tanggapin si Hesus na Tagapagligtas na!
Ang pusong nagpupuri’y napupuno ng saya,
Dahil sa pag-ibig Niya na walang kapantay
Handog Niya ang pinakadakilang regalo sa lahat—
Ang ating kaligtasan at buhay na walang wakas!

II
Hindi ginto o pilak ang tunay na hiyas,
Kundi ang Kanyang Anak na nagbigay ng wagas na bukas.
Sa Kanyang pagdating, pag-asa'y sumikat,
Ang dilim ng sala'y tuluyan nang kumupas.
Halina’t lumapit, lumuhod at sumamba,
Sa Sanggol na Hari ng buong likha.

[Pre-Chorus]
Punuin ng galak ang bawat tahanan,
Isigaw ang papuri sa Kanyang kagalakan!
Sapagkat sa gabing ito ng Pasko,
Niyakap ng langit ang buong mundo.

[Chorus]
Magalak ang lahat, umawit sa Ama!
Tanggapin si Hesus na Tagapagligtas na!
Ang pusong nagpupuri’y napupuno ng saya,
Dahil sa pag-ibig Niya na walang kapantay
Handog Niya ang pinakadakilang regalo sa lahat—
Ang ating kaligtasan at buhay na walang wakas!

[Bridge]
O Banal na Gabi, gabing puno ng biyaya,
Salamat, O Diyos, sa Pag-ibig Mong dakila.
Sa pagtanggap kay Hesus, buhay nami'y nagbago,
Ikaw ang tunay na dahilan ng Paskong ito!

[Chorus]
Magalak ang lahat, umawit sa Ama!
Tanggapin si Hesus na Tagapagligtas na!
Ang pusong nagpupuri’y napupuno ng saya,
Dahil sa pag-ibig Niya na walang kapantay
Handog Niya ang pinakadakilang regalo sa lahat—
Ang ating kaligtasan at buhay na walang wakas!

Writer's note: I chose this song because I wrote this song word-for-word in under 30 minutes in a parking lot. I wanted to write an '80s-style Arena Rock song, but it can be done as a Pop Rock or Power Pop song.

---------

[Verse 1]
Electric nights, hearts collide
In each other, sparks ignite
Your smile's a flame, heats up my mind
Chasing a high, desire's no crime

[Chorus]
Hearts set afire, what a desire
The flames keep getting higher
Holding so tight, we kiss the night
Flirting with the morning light
Making love fun (Making love fun)
Making love 'til we're done

[Verse 2]
Unstoppable, sentimental
Swept away, it's elemental
Chasing a dream, it goes by fast
It's okay, our fire's gonna last

[Chorus]
Hearts set afire, what a desire
The flames keep getting higher
Holding so tight, we kiss the night
Flirting with the morning light
Making love fun (Making love fun)
Making love 'til we're done

[Bridge]
The world outside is so cold
We got each other to hold
The world, you know, is so dark
We're one when we're heart to heart
Making love fun, fun, fun (Fun, fun, fun)
Making love like we'll never be done

[Chorus]
Hearts set afire, what a desire
The flames keep getting higher
Holding so tight, we kiss the night
Flirting with the morning light
Making love—

[Chorus]
Hearts set afire, what a desire
The flames keep getting higher
Holding so tight, we kiss the night
Flirting with the morning light
Making love fun (Making love fun)
Making love 'til we're done

[Outro]
Making love fun (Making love fun)
Making love fun...

Yeah
Let's go, let's go
You know what time it is

[Verse 1]
Sweat on my skin
Fire in my chest
Body says quit, but my mind says yes
Every step forward
I'm building something real
This is my moment
This is how it feels

[Pre-Chorus]
Keep pushing, keep pushing
Don't you dare slow down
Keep pushing, keep pushing
Gonna own this now

[Chorus]

You got this, got this
Eyes on the finish line
You got this, got this
Your body, your mind, your time

Keep moving, moving
Never gonna quit today
You got this, got this
Nothing standing in your way


[Verse 2

Breath getting heavy
Heart beating loud
Strength from within
Determination now
Every single rep
Takes me somewhere new
I believe in this
I believe in you

[Pre-Chorus]

Keep pushing, keep pushing
Don't you dare slow down
Keep pushing, keep pushing
Gonna own this now

[Chorus]

You got this, got this
Eyes on the finish line
You got this, got this
Your body, your mind, your time
Keep moving, keep moving
Never gonna quit today
You got this, got this
Nothing standing in your way

[Bridge]

Stronger than yesterday
Further than before
This is what you came for
This is what you came for
Feel it taking over
Watch yourself transform
This is what you came for
This is what you came for

[Chorus]

You got this, got this
Eyes on the finish line
You got this, got this
Your body, your mind, your time
Keep moving, keep moving
Never gonna quit today
You got this, you got this
Nothing standing in your way


keep movin’ movin’
Got this
keep movin’ movin’
You Got This

Yeah, nothing standing in your way

Can't Breathe, Can't Live

Verse 1
Can't breathe, can't live,
What has this life become?
To live in freedom, is that so hard?
Can't breathe, can't live.

Life is not a fairytale,
But should it be this hard?
A heart that's full of hopelessness,
A soul that's full of doubt.

Verse 2
What is this existence?
Where has all hope gone?
I'm searching through the silence,
Trying to hold on.
The light feels far beyond me,
The night won't seem to end,
But somewhere in the darkness,
I'm praying hope begins.
Refrain

Need to live, need to breathe,
Need to live, need to breathe,
Need to live, need to breathe,
Even when my heart can't see.

Hold on through the darkest night,
One more step toward the light.
Though I'm broken, hope still calls,
I will rise each time I fall.

Faithful in Everything

The swords are flying through the air
My flesh is weak, my heart is scared
I don't know how to do this
God, I'm not sure I can do this

But I know you cover me with your feathers
You shelter me with your wings
You are faithful in everything
You are faithful in everything

Though I walk through the darkest valley
The devil can't lay a hand on me
Your goodness and mercy will follow me
You are faithful in everything

Your yoke is easy, your burden light
You give me rest though I try to fight
My worries and cares are safe with you
You've never let me down and you won't start now

Though I walk through the darkest valley
The devil can't lay a hand on me
Your goodness and mercy will follow me
You are faithful in everything

You lead me to streams of mercy, streams of grace
You walk beside me, hand in hand, you know my fate
Yet, where can I go without you?
Where could I go that you couldn't find me

But I know you cover me with your feathers
You shelter me with your wings
You are faithful in everything
You are faithful in everything

Though I walk through the darkest valley
The devil can't lay a hand on me
Your goodness and mercy will follow me
You are faithful in everything

I need his body in ways
Green eyes, nice teeth
Looking deep in my eyes
I can feel my next mistake
I think it's time for me to leave this mf place
But if you can keep a secret nobody has to know
What we doing on the low
I need you to keep this thing between me and you
Keep it anonymous ×4

Now it's 3 in the morning
You know by time I gotta take my leave
Even though you know I'm still horny
You know I'm the type to get naked and fuck up what I got cause it's what I never had
I'm sorry I know I have my
flaws and habits
I think it's time for me to leave this mf place
But if you can keep a secret nobody has to know
What we doing on the low
I need you to keep this thing between me and you
Keep it anonymous 4

JETSTREAM

Everybody thinks the Asphaltband should hold still.

It doesn't.


The numerics on the surface don't resolve the way they should,

A vector falls across the ridge where probability once stood.

They said the ice was just a myth,
the motion a clean equation,

I felt the rotation before the break,
the pressure in the deviation.

Restoration doesn't arrive intact,
it arrives in what you shear through.

Resilience isn't something you claim,
it's a force you learn to move through.

There was an old dream I carried longer than I should,

And one man beside me who understood.

No crowd.
No chorus.
No promise carved in stone.

Just two lives in the same direction,
making something of our own.


When the chassis bites the gravel like a loaded frequency,

A sudden fracture runs the length of the geometry.

I'm not traversing it.

I'm reading it.

The regime.
The rhythm.
The pressure underneath me.


JETSTREAM.

I read the pressure when the whole thing starts to bend.

JETSTREAM.

I know a broken vector isn't where it ends.

Forget straight kinematics,
I'll never need adjusting.

I fracture my being in time.

I throw my weight across the apex,
and I rewrite the line.

Force has a language.
Trajectory leaves proof.

I don't outrun velocity.

I make it tell the truth.


They call it reckless when a man won't stay in line,

But they never stood that close
when the chromatic light hit mine.

They never felt that split-second clarity in the break,

When the self gets cut apart
and the patterns wake.

That spin across the warning surface,

That ain't humor.

That's velocity.

The drone is chasing where I'm going,

My will takes the turn before I'm beholding.

"Maintain distance" ain't weakness.

It's a boundary built from torque.

A man made for the chaos doesn't brag.

He works.

And there was one who never asked me to be less,

Never needed me to make the pressure make sense.

When the old dream looked too far to reach,

He stayed beside me in the silence
and let the road teach.

Adaptation ain't surrender,
it's a harder way to war.

Timing ain't a gift,
it's what you earn when systems roar.

They paved a lane for average,
I re-cut the road in steel,

Distributed grip when the others start to hydroplane and fail.


When the chassis bites the gravel like a loaded frequency,

Sudden fracture.

No theology.

I'm not surviving it.

I'm shaping it.

The law.

The rhythm.

The hit.

The heat.


JETSTREAM.

I read the pressure when the whole thing starts to bend.

JETSTREAM.

I know a broken vector isn't where it ends.

Forget straight kinematics,
I'll never need adjusting.

I fracture my being in time.

I throw my weight across the apex,
and I rewrite the line.

Force has a language.
Trajectory leaves proof.

I don't outrun velocity.

I make it tell the truth.


Fluid...

Dispersal...

Rotation...

You don't name them.

You feel them.

You become them.

Fallen vectors...

Chassis pressure...

Sudden fractures...

You don't avoid them.

You don't explain them.

You translate them.

And sometimes the thing that keeps you moving

isn't the machine.

It's the man who stayed.


Pressure isn't always the enemy.

Sometimes...

it's the engine.


JETSTREAM.

I don't fight the current,
I negotiate the force.

JETSTREAM.

I don't follow every vector,
I decide the course.

Forget straight kinematics,
let the old geometry break.

I've spent too many years learning
what a system can take.

Force and trajectory.

Pressure and velocity.

No more mystery.

I know what moves me.

JETSTREAM.

Rip the signal!

JETSTREAM.

Shatter the static!

I don't outrun the velocity...

I become the velocity.


Resilience...

isn't resistance.

It's translation.

And somewhere behind the velocity,

there was an old dream

and a man who stayed.

Kiss me, baby
Dance me in the dark
Thrill me, baby
Turn the beat up in my heart
There's music playin'
Twilight's fadin'
Like whispers through the pine
So kiss me, baby
Just press your lips to mine.

You can be my dark star
Take me to another place
Rome or Monte Carlo
The chips fall where they may
Cause isn't love a gamble
The tumble of the dice
So let me be your bed of roses
Your pink champagne on ice.

I know you wanna be seen with me
Wanna make the scene with me
Walk around the party like I'm just part of the scenery
But I ain't one to linger, ain't no second stringer
Honey, I got more class than that in my pinky finger
The friction, the dishin', the people on a mission, all that competition
Don't know what they're missin'
You and me at home, drinkin' Sauvignon
Like Greta Garbo said, I just wanna be alone

LOST

Written by: Min Mina iL
Concept: Emotional Ballad
Originally written in English

VERSE 1

I'm lost in time, but time is frozen,
We made a promise that left us broken.

It's like a nightmare we can't change,
Even if I want to, we can't wake up from it.
Oh, woah, don't go,
I'm still drowning in the past.

It's like I knew something,
And it's still lingering through my mind.
How could I ever find
Someone like you?

Oh, oh...

Pre-Chorus

And you know, and I know,
This might be the last moment.
I felt the warmth
Of your arms.

So now I know
It's time to go...

Oh, yeah.

Chorus

After a day, after a month, after a year,
You'll always find me where you disappeared.
After the noon, after the dawn, after the night,
I'm still seeing your face every time I close my eyes.

I keep living in the moment where I lost you,
Because every road I take still leads me back to you.

Bridge

I don't miss the days we had,
I miss the days we'll never get to see together, ever.

I keep telling myself
You're somewhere under the same sky,
But a part of me knows
I'm still holding on to a goodbye.

Final Chorus

After that hour, after that day, after that night,
I'm still in regrets of not stopping you.

I wish I had held you close enough
To never let you go.

I know that you felt the same as me,
And I hope I'll meet you somewhere else again.

I know the streets every crack,
Ever bar & broken sign,
I know the faces looking back,
But none of them know mine,

I’ve learnt to leave before I’m left,
To laugh before they see me hurt,
Keep every good thing at arms length,
Like somehow I’m making it work,

Pre chorus:
You could tell me I’m worth saving,
I’d find a reason to disagree,
Cause it’s easier to call it nothing,
Than to risk it meaning something to me

Chorus:
Maybe I could let somebody in,
And stay instead of run,
Maybe there’s a life beyond this town,
That shines in a hopeful sun,
The closerrr you get,
The more I push you away,
Bostons mine & here I’ll stay…

How’d you like them apples?
A witty quip to mask the pain,
I could spend my whole life proving’
I’m the smartest in the room again

Yeah ‘my boys hella smart’
A chalkboard equation, the spoken word
Can recite a sonnet, explain life’s art,
But still I don’t know what I deserve

Pre chorus;
You could tell me it’s not my fault,
I’d find a way to disagree,
I could tear your fucking world apart,
Deflecting my insecurities

Chorus;

Maybe I could let you in,
And stay instead of run,
Maybe there’s a life beyond this town,
That shines in a hopeful sun,
The closerrrr you get,
The more I push you away,
Bostons mine & here I’ll stay

You sat me down upon a bench,
Gazed upon a tranquil pond,
‘Visiting hours don’t apply’
When you have that special bond,

With every word you opened my eyes,
Broke down my barriers
& gave me belief,
My choices are mine,
My own free will,
‘Your move chief’

Chorus;

Maybe now I’ll let you in,
& Together we can run
And find a life beyond this town,
That shines in a hopeful sun,
& now chuckie can smile,
It’s the best part of his day,
No goodbye or see you later,
I’m chasing better days,

Outro:
Boston was my home,
My selfish fucked up little world,
Today I’m choosing me,
‘I’m going to see about a girl

100-WATT SILENCE

Come over here, baby,
We can share my car.
The way your eyes keep changing color
Reminds me of a blinking star.
The 100-watt silence is burning bright.
We can have it all as we move through the night.
Come over here, baby,
We can share a star.


Slide on up to me, baby,
Take a sip from my cup.
I know your life is crowded with regret
But tonight’s no time for that stuff.
The 100-watt silence is calling your name.
Get next to me and let’s bite the flame.
Slide on up to me, baby,
Take a sip from my cup.


I can split the atom,
I can sweet talk Eve,
Make the little girls dance and the boys believe.
I can take you anywhere,
Have you back by dawn.
When I’m through, you won’t know you were gone.


Stretch out your legs, honey,
Try to keep pace with the moon.
There's a million songs out there tonight.
Let me hear your own tune.
In the 100-watt silence and the razor-strap wind,
You start singing; I’ll know when to jump in.
Stretch out your legs, honey,
Try to keep pace with the moon.

A
Summer is coming to an end
And so are we
I'll pack my things and you'll pack yours
I have to go, yeah,
Off to
New worlds
Goodbye my friends, goodbye my love
My everything
Time’s rushing like a curse thrown from above
And the cold rain is here
October's gone way too fast
And falling leaves
As many as the tears I cried
Just pile up

CHORUS

Hey, it's November rain, here come freezing days, and you're far away
Hey, the promise we made, I swear it won't fade, I'll be back again
Hey, this November rain brings nothing but pain, oh please don’t go insane
Hey, hold tight and have faith, summer will break this chain

B
Winter is stabbing my weak heart
How is yours doing?
The fallen leaves have turned to dust
And sunshine, oh
Long time
No see
Every raindrop, another blade
An icy blow
Time’s mercilessly stabbing me again
Wonder if I’ll make it
The cruel sky tears will not stop
They drench my soul
I have no tears left to cry
But I hold on

CHORUS
Hey, it's November rain, here come freezing days, and you're far away
Hey, the promise we made, I swear it won't fade, I'll be back again
Hey, this November rain brings nothing but pain, oh please don’t go insane
Hey, hold tight and have faith, summer will break this chain


BRIDGE
The sun will rise and shine again up in the sky
Fulfill your dreams and hopes 'cause I will fight for mine
That's who we are

CHORUS 3
Hey, it's November rain, winter is near, but the snow will disappear
Hey, November rain, you brought cold and despair, but more summers await
Hey, winter is long, but I know we are strong, our summer will come
Hey, this November craze, before we realize it will be already gone.

Now They Believe the Same

Verse
They said seeing was believing, and so they went their way
But they never really stopped to look and see
That which happened all around them in the life they threw away
As they grasped at what they thought they ought to be

Chorus
Now they believe the same, as those who live in heaven
Now they call out the Name, that’s worshiped up on high
And now they feel the shame that could have been forgiven
And wash away by the Blood, before the time to die.

Verse
Much too easy in the world which their Creator made
To pretend that God held nothing in His hand
The gifts that He had given them caused their belief to fade
And they placed their faith in castles built on sand

Verse
Hell has only the believing, no pride there makes them blind
What others saw by faith, now they see by sight
The Saviour that had come for them, the Hope they left behind
Their sight fumbles in the darkness as faith walks in His Light

I wonder how many goodbyes you’re gonna say,
Running into escape.
I wish you knew
That we’re just two dreamers
Preparing for the fall.
All I ever ask:
Will you trust me once?


The tides of fate were made to break
What we built and what we left.
My tears are a single glance away.
What’s left of my shame?

Maybe one day we’ll meet again,
And I’ll tell you that I still love.
I’m such a creep,

I’ll wait for you till dusk turns bright.
Maybe my ashes will grow old,
Sitting on the path,
Lonely.

The moon was cold, but the skies were clear.
It’s nothing new for me, so once again I’ll sear,
Cremated in the fragrance of memories —
Your memories.

All I hold dear are your memories.

Someday soon
I’ll be dust again,
Wash the room
In these empty swings.
A flower will bloom,
And you’ll be loved again
By someone new.
You deserved to be
Happy.

You said you loved me…
You said it was forever…
So tell me—
who is she?

[Verse 1]
You left your phone face down again,
Another secret underneath your skin.
You said you had to work late tonight,
But I saw her car beneath the streetlight.

Her name lighting up at 2:09,
You swore that you were mine.
But every word became another lie,
And something in me finally died.

[Chorus]
You were sleeping beside me,
While She was living in your head.
Every kiss became a lie,
Every promise left for dead.

You thought you could have everything,
Two hearts tied to one damn string.
But now the truth is standing here—
And there’s nowhere left to disappear.

[Verse 2]
I found the pictures that you hid,
The messages you swore you never did.
Her lipstick on your collar,
While I was waiting here alone.

You called me crazy.
Called me blind.
Said I was losing my mind.
But every word you threw at me
Was just another lie you hid.

[Breakdown]
LOOK AT ME!

Don’t look away!

SAY HER NAME!

Tell me that you love her!
Tell me I’m nothing!
Tell me every fucking lie
you’ve been hiding from me!

[Bridge – slow, haunting]
I remember when you held my hand,
Said you’d never hurt me.
Funny how forever ends
when forever isn’t what you gave me.

You thought I’d never know.
You thought I’d let it go.

But broken hearts don’t always break quietly.

[Final Chorus]
You were sleeping beside me,
While she was living in your head.
Now every word comes back to you,
Every lie you thought I never knew.

You wanted her.
You wanted me.
You wanted everything for free.

But love isn’t something you can steal—
And broken hearts don’t always heal.

[Outro]

[whispered]
Female: “Tell me one more time
that you love her.”

Male: “I…”

[GUNSHOT]

Female: “That’s what I thought.”

[Silence]

i knocked at your door before noon
hands shakin’, movin' my leg in the air
& nobody answered
I use to always see someone
walk down the hall to open the door through a little hole
but nobody was here this time

saw you in the window
peakin’ roughly under a blind
only seein’ your blue eyes I got after you
and somehow I beam
thought you’d come and open
only saw the blind cuttin' off my vision of you
thought this was my chance but you weren’t comin'
after three, four, five minutes
so I walked away
with my head down

movin' out of your heart wasn’t easy
movin' out your heart with a little cartoon box
wasn’t easy
but I did it and I’m not proud out of it
and I hope I can move in there again
with smiles on our faces and a hug

and I wanna love you both
but will you allow it?
will you allow it?
I can hand you another try
hope you won’t waste it
my boyfriend stays at my home everyday
but I don’t feel safe without my real home
he always plays the Lenker song I love
but that and even his smiles don’t cheer me up sometimes
watch him laugh with myself on a sofa
looking tired

I just wanna be in your house
in your heart
pumping blood and my love in your veins
I moved out but what can I say
I love you anyway
understandin' is hard to find
at shops these days
and I get it you don’t have it
just know
no matter what
I love you anyway
but i still moved out

if you think you can compose the bluegrass music for this one? let me know so I can mark off the list of thosed already or in the works of being composed and recorded

"Poison Kisses"

I wanted you so badly
my heart accepts your lies
but then my mind keeps tellin me
it's time for our goodbye

(chorus)
Poi-son kis-ses tainted by deceit
I get a dose everytime our 2 lips meet
You're wantin my true love but yours always misses
ev'rytime we kiss I taste those poison kisses

Who'll be foolin who
if I look the other way
then we hug and kiss again
and my heart has to pay....for those

(chorus)
Poi-son kis-ses tainted by deceit
I get a dose everytime our 2 lips meet
You're wantin my true love but yours always misses
ev'rytime we kiss I taste those poison kisses

******instrument breaks*****

I use to feel the urges
when our lips would meet
now there's only(a) coldness
where there once was fiery heat

(chorus)
Poison kisses tainted by deceit
ev'rytime I get a dose when our 2 lips meet
You're wantin my true love but yours always misses
ev'rytime we kiss I taste those poison kisses

(bridge)
Somewhere in the poison(passion) there lies an antidote,
I just have to find it or give up my hope, ..... to those


(chorus)
Poi-son kis-ses tainted by deceit
I get a dose everytime our 2 lips meet
You're wantin my true love but yours always misses
ev'rytime we kiss I taste those poison kisses

Candles in the window
There was silence in the air
A young girl cries out
In the middle of the prayer

Her father returned home
With medals on his chest
His body cold and lifeless
Along with all the rest

Another fallen soldier
Struck down by a shell
Another shattered home
Descended into hell

Her mum consoles her
She tries her very best
But her daughter knows
She's now fatherless.

She had so much to tell him
About when he was gone
Her mother holds her tightly
Telling her to be strong

She can't understand
Why he went to war
What was the cause?
What was it all for?

Her father returned home
With medals on his chest
His body cold and lifeless
Along with all the rest

Another fallen soldier
Struck down by a shell
Another shattered home
Another sad farewell

Feelings overwhelm her
She can hardly believe
Her chest it tightens
Now, she can hardly breathe

She stands up at the coffin
Tears rolling down her face
She looks down at her father
Knowing he can't be replaced

Her father returned home
With medals on his chest
His memory will live on
But he'll forever be laid to rest

When I feel inspiration from inside
My heart does the talking speaking the words
Writing them down is not a matter of pride
The feeling I get taking flight like birds

Songbirds call no words but a song
Beautiful sounds only words can describe
There is no right and there is no wrong
Jotting my thoughts and feeling the vibe

While I create a rhyme with no reason
Thoughts with emotions as the words just flow
Day by day, from season to season
Each lyric I write I hereby bestow

The words all come from high above
I’m just a vessel with a message to give
Intending to bring out the peace and love
So, we can enjoy the lives we live

Anybody can write a lyric
Write what you feel from deep within
Keep silent as you listen to your spirit
Some may distract you but never give in

Many great poets have come and gone
Helped shape this world in their own way
Some were put to melodies in a song
But all sent a message in what they had to say

Never read a lyric that I disliked
Even when I did not agree
Always been that way since I was a tyke
It all began with Kilmer’s tree

I am a lyricist with such a passion
Hoping inspirations never cease
It’s not about glitz or what’s in fashion
It’s all about bringing love and peace

LONELY DAYS OF SORROW

Lonely days of sorrow linger in my mind,
The days since I left are so hard to find.
Memories of happier times often creep in,
As I search for a way to cope with this pain within.
A flood of tears I’ve shed each lonely night,
Missing you and all our times so bright.
My broken heart and my sorrowed soul,
Both ripped apart, no one to make me whole.
And I walk these streets where we used to be,
Every shadow looks like you to me.
The silence echoes loud and clear,
Every moment without you here.
Lonely days, endless nights go by,
Still hoping you’ll appear before my eyes.
But reality cuts deep and cruel,
I’m left here missing you, still missing you.
I pass the places that we used to know,
The café corner where we’d watch the sunset glow.
I trace the footsteps that we walked as one,
Now I’m walking alone beneath the same old sun.
Friends say the hurting will fade away,
That time will heal and I’ll be okay.
But they don’t know what it’s like to lose your world,
To stand where we stood and know you’re gone for good.
And I walk these streets where we used to be,
Every shadow looks like you to me.
The silence echoes loud and clear,
Every moment without you here.
Lonely days, endless nights go by,
Still hoping you’ll appear before my eyes.
But reality cuts deep and cruel,
I’m left here missing you, still missing you.
Time moves on, the seasons turn and change,
But my heart remains where we arranged.
To meet again, to never say goodbye,
I’m still waiting with a tearful eye.
Maybe someday I’ll find my peace,
Maybe someday the aching will cease.
But not today, not yet, it seems,
You’re still the heartbeat in all my dreams.
Time passes, but deep inside I still feel that same pain,
As I face the struggle of life without you here to sustain.
My lonely moments seem to drag on forever,
And each day my sorrows add up to less than never.
I hope over time, while I’m still here,
I’ll learn how to cope and the pain will disappear.
But right now, I just can’t let go,
Because I still miss you so.
Still miss you so
Lonely days of sorrow.

Well you can say what you want,
But nothings gonna bring me down,
Do you dream of the stars,
As you fall to the ground.

Does the night stand still,
Cause you forgot your pill,
Does it now….

Does it really mean a thing,
With all that in between,
Does it now…

Did you ever let it lie???

Excuse me for sayin’,
That I care,
There’s no words you want to hear,
What’s the point,
When you’re not here,
When I’ve triiiiiied,

So leave me as I am,
A bitter, twisted man,
& let it lie.

So you can say what you want,
But you’re never gonna break me down,
Do you dream of the stars,
As they fall through the clouds?

When you try, try, try,
But there’s no hope for you nowww,
There’s nothing left for you,
Just half the man I though that you liiiked,

Does it really mean a thing,
With all the in between,
Does it now?…,


Did you ever let it lie?

Excuse me for saying,
That I care,
Words that fade into thin air,
What’s the point,
When you’re not here,
When I’m tiiiiired,


So leave me as I am,
A bitter twisted man,
& let it lie

I wont let a song bring me down,
It was ours but it’s mine now,

So leave me as I am,
A bitter twisted man,
& let it lie.

I WILL STAND UP FOR THE LORD
Carlton J. Young

All throughout my life
I searched in vain for what was right
I thought I knew the way
To heaven one day
But all I found was pain
Wrapped in lies and shame
Then Jesus came to me
He set my soul free

CHORUS

I will stand up for the Lord
Praise His name forever more
He saved me from sin
Gave me strength to begin
I will standup for the Lord
Claim His mercies that restore
Hope, faith, and love
I am saved by the blood

I am a warrior of faith with armor from a Holy place
I will fight the against one who tempts everyone
With a prayer on my lips, and my Bible on my hip
I will battle him today and never turn away

CHORUS

And everyone I see I’ll tell of my victory
How Jesus made me whole, He energized my soul
It’s to Him I’ll pledge my life ‘til He calls me home one night
Eternal life is mine, I am blessed by the divine

CHORUS

REFRAIN

I WILL STAND UP
I WILL STAND UP
I WILL STAND UP

In the home of a hippy
In the bathroom of insanity
Billy's toilet seat is in danger
You can hear him coming towards
They all run away in hordes
He's going to do a basement renovation
It wasn't used till 89
Out of service since 9/11
They’re getting a new water line
In the year of 27
They’re waiting for this guy named kevin
He's still not done
Now he's stuck, Better call our landlord
His butt Is feeling sorely
He tells us that's all he could afford
the TP ripped so poorly
He tells everyone he's not quitting
He will fulfill his glory
Until then, he will be stuck sitting
On the lavatory again
He’s got to take another poo
Which was so long overdue
So we tell him we’ll be waiting
But now i really have to pee
There might be one more fatality
Now i really think billy has constipation
It wasn't used till 89
Out of service since 9/11
They’re getting a new water line
In the year of 27
They’re waiting for this guy named kevin
He's still not done
Now he's stuck, Better call our landlord
His butt Is feeling sorely
He tells us that's all he could afford
the TP ripped so poorly
He tells everyone he's not quitting
He will fulfill his glory
Until then, he will be stuck sitting
On the lavatory again
Dying from masterbation with dedication
In a situation, We die a nation
Papa’s constipation, What in tarnation
It's your final destination
Dying from masterbation with dedication
In a situation, We die a nation
Papa’s constipation, What in tarnation
It's your final destination
Oh my freaking god
Now he's stuck, Better call our landlord
His butt Is feeling sorely
He tells us that's all he could afford
the TP ripped so poorly
He tells everyone he's not quitting
He will fulfill his glory
Until then, he will be stuck sitting
On the lavatory again
the TP ripped so poorly
I can't wait to tell this story again

Alone with my thoughts
Thinking what have I become
A sense of understanding
As to why I've become numb.

Depending on the outlook
Some could say I'm doing well
But living in isolation is like
My very own private hell

Poor decisions on my part
Feeling some type of way
Depression rears its ugly head
Looks like this time it's here to stay

Yeah, I'm waiting in this place
For the day to finally come,
When I vacate this space
And pay the final sum.

Silence hangs in the air,
The beauty I cannot see.
Killing time with a stare,
In a room without a key.

Thoughts circle my mind,
Like a merry-go-round.
Joy, I can no longer find.
Only misery I have found.

What will become of me?
Can my sorry soul ever be saved?
Or will I take the road to hell,
The one that I have paved.

There's four walls around me
I'm trapped in this damn cage
Unable to escape my thoughts
Praying I don't die from old age.

I'm sorry for my sins
I've had a lot of time to think
And if only I could go back now
I'd have given up the drink

Now
I'm waiting in this place
For the day to finally come,
When I vacate this space
And pay the final sum.

Silence hangs in the air,
The beauty I cannot see.
Killing time with a stare,
In a room without a key.
