One of my recent compositions.
LYRICS
Seemed like a thousand roads were just begging me to make my way
Back when the summers weren't so short
Never thought I'd choose the ones just for the promise they could keep me safe
But I took no risk and I have nothing to report
Nothing's healed in all this time
But you have kept your f...aith in me
And still say I will shine
Tried to be a martyr 'til you showed me how much love I had
But I had some lessons to unlearn
And I am all but lost when you propose that I consider that
Love is something I can't earn
I sold my soul to buy that line
But you reflect the truth to me
And still say I will shine
Shine, you will be the light that someone needs to find their way
I was taking stock of every precious thing I stood to lose
'Cause I had no faith that they would stay
So I answered every question how I thought they'd want me to
And that's the story, how I ended up this way
But you broke through and changed my mind
You kept the light of hope alive
And that is how I shine
Matthew Blake Meet one of the roommates! We do a cover of "May He Poop on My Knee?" Also, help me pick a catchphrase, like William Sledd's "Hey bitches!"... "Hello, little children" might be too creepy. Also, I cover "Mistake of My Life," by Caedmon's Call (written by Derek Webb). The music in the intro is "Sunshine Alley" by Stanl...ey Turrentine from the album "Sugar." Hope you enjoy!

LYRICS
God, are you still listening?
Were you ever really there at all?
Maybe I was wishing
Maybe I was wrong
All of those desperate words I spoke
Are they just falling right back down on me?
When I am calling chaos home
Does it appease me to beli...eve?
God, are you still speaking?
Have I ever really heard your voice?
Was it just something I was needing
To make some sense of all the noise?
I once believed that you were near
Whispering which way was best
But you are not a puppeteer
And I am not your marionette
God, are you awake now?
'Cause I don't know where I belong
I hear my friends tell me to pray now
Well, my prayer is this song
We think we've got you all exposed
But are you doing what we say you?
Is there even one remotely close
Interpretation of you?
