Father, I come to You
I finally see the truth
I had replaced You with another
And I had lost my way
I had forgotten grace
And now all of my lies uncover

And I lost everything

And now I realize
Just what I have done
And now I finally see
How lost I have become
And now it's time that I
Try to undo the mess that I have made
(the mess I've made)

The stars-
they laugh at me tonight
at all that i've tried to hide
cuz they know who i could be
and You've-
shown me a clearer side
of what my life would be like
if i would let you control me

i had a dream i died tonight
dreamed i left this world behind
everyone was scared
it was so unprepared
i dreamed you cried yourself to sleep
thinkin about how you missed me

you said goodbye
as you left and you
tried not to cry
broke my heart and you
could not deny
that you knew it was a mistake you had to make.....
now late at night
you still hate the way

Don’t alert me darling please
When you leave me this morning
Oh, no please just let me sleep
I don’t want you to warn me
Cuz to say goodbye
Would mean this is the end

before i post this, i wanted to do a little background on it: 4 years ago, a friend of the family Josh died at age 20. it came by suprise and it was really difficult for everyone.

the stars- they laugh at me tonight
as i hold this pain inside
wondering why i let things get this way
so far-i can't find peace of mind
no matter how hard i try

dont go and leave me here alone
you know you're my only hope
feeling lost, seems no one knows
don't go and leave me here alone
--
oh God please do not leave my side
you know you keep me alive

A trail of breadcrumbs
shows just where I have run to
Shows what I've become
and just how bad I need You
A broken life was mine
But I let it slip now I can't find

If I died today
Would you remember tomorrow
If I tried to pave the way
Would it cause me sorrow?
Would it cause me....sorrow

I'm sayin sorry in advance
For the trouble I might cause you

I'm standing at your door
Waiting for you to come outside
I can't believe that it is time
For us to say goodbye
The tears are coming fast
But i have purposed not to cry

Welcome to my life
Meet the man I've been for so long
Welcome to my life
Meet the man who wishes he was more strong
Welcome to a glimpse of yesterday
Fused in with the feelings of dissary

I woke up
Brushed the dust off
It's apparent I'd been collecting
Dust of yesterday
And the day before
Of all of the mistakes
I could not ignore
Light spoke up
Said good mornining

(this was one i wrote a long time ago that i've never used; i'm reposting it under this account cuz hopefully my group definingline will actually get it to music lol.)

I've tried to forget you
