Humble me
Broken in innocence,
Now my innocence is broken.
I am clay in your hands God.
Shape me into your Holy Son;
Because nothing else matters.
In my life, my life is not mine.
But yours, Oh Lord.
In my Broken state, you elect to Save my wounded soul.
But For your purposes God, use me.
Now my innocence is broken.
I am clay in your hands God.
Shape me into your Holy Son;
Because nothing else matters.
In my life, my life is not mine.
But yours, Oh Lord.
In my Broken state, you elect to Save my wounded soul.
But For your purposes God, use me.

The prayer from eternal irony
It's so ironic,
O, God.
How you guide me and use my enemies as prophets.
Your care, it confuses yet it soothes the bruises.
Your mercy knows no end.
I could get lost in the depths O Lord!
Show me how to be humble.
O, God.
How you guide me and use my enemies as prophets.
Your care, it confuses yet it soothes the bruises.
Your mercy knows no end.
I could get lost in the depths O Lord!
Show me how to be humble.

Oh to pull a trigger,
To blow off someones head.
It is a pain so greedy,
It is a scene so sad,
That when i think about it,
It always makes me mad.
The in and out of war,
The part of mostly out,
Can make a fellow mellow,
Make rich men long for more.
And when is ill considered,
Will be doomed to forever play it out.
To blow off someones head.
It is a pain so greedy,
It is a scene so sad,
That when i think about it,
It always makes me mad.
The in and out of war,
The part of mostly out,
Can make a fellow mellow,
Make rich men long for more.
And when is ill considered,
Will be doomed to forever play it out.

Door opens, days end.
Eyes open, faithless friend.
I look to see, to feel, to be.
Stop knowing, in the eyes of a angry man.
World holding, grey's scent,
Pains spoken, minds spent,
All in a days work.
So controlling, hand in splint,
Heart slowing, how i've been,
I hold to hear, to feel, to have near.
Stop knowing, in the eyes of a broken man.
Still choking, blows glint,
Not golden,what i lent,
All in a years work.
Sky darkens, hours mend,
Same feelings, sort of bent,
I love to know, to feel, to hurt. ...

In the dark of the midnight mood swings
I think strange thoughts I think deep things
Lost in repeating memories I wont let myself erase, perceive the past made up of sins and mistakes.
No.
Lies take me nowhere.
Lies say it's not fair.
Pain makes for good fear.
Sin tells that Gods not there.
Does it?
Yes.
Trust it?
Mm
Don't judge me, I'm just talking straight things,
Just staying real clean,
Still have my issues try to keep clear of the fake scene.
When I go to sleep I feel like my life is weak like I cannot believe...

Blink.
Sometimes it feels like that is all I can do.
At sometime I lost control and so I'll just drown it out.
Blink.
The light coming from my window falls sweetly on my pillow.
Hard to move on when nothing is wrong.
glance over next to me, asleep and content dreaming of where we have been.
Get out of bed, take a few steps see no regrets coming out of this one.
Dark. Its hot and its wet got the steam and the scent so now I am finally clean.
White, had my eyes closed for to long, think reality's gone, nope, just my morning coffee.
How...

Interlude 1
I remember the last time i saw you.
I was at my lowest and i decided to show it.
I remember sitting on the floor like 3 feet from everyone else in front of a couch and one person saw me and asked if i was fine.
At the time i was seeing just how bad it all was.
So i did not answer.
They did not push.
That hurt like hell to know that not one person truly cared about me to spend time with me or to truly get to know me.
You put no work in, i only wish to see what time can do.
The point i have made is you will spend time and energy trying to know who a...

Strike a match,
Shiny silver steel.
Wet red,
Dry red,
It's all the same feel.
Make a difference or just stay concealed?
Is the pain to great or are you just unwilling to heal?
Cold hands in a cold night?
Get some gloves so you wont have to fight.
Most stay scared but it will be alright.
These feelings we feel tend to draw the strings tight,
Just please remember that that's part of life.
Talk.
Let it out because I want to hear.
You stay silent all your life cus you give in to your fear.
Don't do that, let God...

The oldest of faces yet farthest of friends.
The one who was shaken and yet still remains.
Through trials and trouble and sorrows and danger,
He looked and found a way to put to death his own anger.
On lifes path he had long last wondered.
Till by the side he cried as he pondered.
"if the path is so long and people are evil, what is the point should i continue?"
Then it hit him, the reason and purpose: to love and serve a god who knows what his hurt is.
More things in his mind then ever before, he looked and he saw this word from the old, ...

At one point I had lived in a sort of dream.
Life felt as a whole like those winter days in everyone's childhood where you felt safe and happy and boundless.
Wondering in the snowscape and having the inexpressible feelings course through your veins.
Then I woke up to reality.
One can say the sun set and the bed bid the weary travelers to come and die in the undisturbed tomb that is our souless and joyless lives.
Well, no flare here, what you make of you own life is purely subjective anyway.
But what can I say? all I know is how to get lost in the ugly charm...

Do...
Do trees desire leaves post-fallen,
And the shadows they create?
And can humans truly long for a man made up of mistakes?

Journey
Alone on my path.
Lonely a thought of the past.
I must persist on.
Lonely a thought of the past.
