Crashing tears envelop me in discord;
To reach my sanctuary is my goal.
The soft lift of ivory sounds a chord,
Feelings like warm silk stir my singing soul.

The ugliness in life wants to end me.
In these dark and dreary woods, I am lost.
But I know, I know, music is the key.
I'll keep this moment, no matter the cost.

Lilting harmonies soar with elegance,
The soothing tones sweep through the starry sky.
The sweet timbre cuts through the turbulence.
Is it a sin to feel this good? This high?

As I am wrapped in the sounds of beauty,
My captured soul cries out to the heavens.
This sweet rapture lets my heart soar freely,
The song shines in my heart like a beacon.

I know now, this is my home, my domain.
In the melody, my soul will remain.

It's hard to fathom that torrent of darkness.
It wastes no time in enveloping you,
Consuming you...
Choking you.

The moon and stars have gone far away
To a land where everything is alright.
But here, there is no light-
There is nothing to guide my way.

The roses have wilted and faded away.
Vines and thorns and weeds curl around them.
It's killing the roses,
But at least they're there.

The thorns remind you 
That you're alive.
The pain is tangible-
My dreams are not.

The vines curl around my heart,
goading me to stay.
Maybe in the end,
I was never a child of light.

The impending doom makes my spirit cringe,
The darkness makes my heart clench,
but you, the light, who shines above all,
frees me from my prison of darkness.

My grief has spiralled out of control.
Locked away inside my heart,
it grows day by day.
It is the only way to protect them from me.

You're so different from everything I've ever known.
So pure...so unadulterated.
Free to be passionate. Free to love.
I watch in my chains, longing.

Your touch is a star burst.
The colors fill and explode
Over my spirit and my body-my broken, broken body.
My world of black and white.

There is fire and water and wind and rain.
Oh the rain! How cleansing it is!
Father, redeemed is an understatement.
You loved this broken spirit.

You even wanted the grief.
The ugly, tortured torrent of grief.
I give it all to you.
My heart is yours.

A silent plea escapes the spirit
of one who tried to make a difference.
This dream is repetitive,
but no one seems to understand it.

It's a small, small person
in a big, big world.
Change is hard.
I'm sorry.

There is no such thing as perfect,
but it's okay to try, right?
Is there something wrong with believing?
Why does the world accuse me?

I'm a small, small person
in a big, big world.
I'm trying to change the world.
It's really hard.

Tell me that tomorrow won't be the same.
Tell me that you love me; we'll break away.
We were never supposed to play this game.
With you is where I want to be today.

In this frosty war, my life might be lost.
Were we ever destined for happiness?
If we are not careful, we'll pay the cost.
I had a small dream where sorrow was less.

What you do not know will never hurt you,
but soon I will become weary with age.
With you, I have always tried to be true.
The story won't change when you turn the page.

What will stay true is that you are my love,
but I can't help feeling like I'm dying.
The pain keeps is from soaring up above.
I just only wish that I were flying.

Eventually, I will break free and fall hard,
but I will not stop fighting in this war.

Shall I compare thee to the worst of trash?
Trash is definitely a subtle word.
You have too much arrogance and are brash.
To save your soul, I call upon the Lord.

You do nothing but cheat others of love.
Your eyes are frosty and your heart jaded.
You will always be a crow, not a dove.
Your countenance is one to be hated.

Deceitful venom crawls from your cruel tongue.
Your keen, spiteful mind schemes day after day.
I’m glad you broke my heart when I was young.
Not even with grace could you mend your ways.

My poor companion, you will never learn
That forgiveness is something you must earn.

Love restores the spirit and heals the heart.
My love, I am only with you tonight.
Never have I seen such beautiful art.
Darling, you are my captivating light.

You have given me the sweetest rapture.
For you are mine, and I am always yours.
My love, I surrender to your capture;
This brilliant, shining future is ours.

My endless joy giver, my morning star,
nothing compares to your loving embrace.
You are my hero; you are never far.
Life is never hard when I see your face.

I cannot imagine life without you.
The feelings I have are forever true.

you're stealing every last breath of mine
and I can't find my way through this maze.
There's no where left to hide;
I'm stuck in this phase.

I find myself losing grip,
and my heart is torn.
It claws and fights and rips
until my soul is worn.

A faded rose is all I see.
Darling, there's nothing left for me.

My dear, this night musn't come to an end,
for our dreams are finally taking flight.
They're soaring above
and they make us unbreakable.

Perfect, we are not,
but growing we are.
Regardless, I would have this love story
told any other way.

If I could give you
the world, I would.
My love, you have captivated me.
Your love has enticed me, ever so gently.

Morning light brings your face
into my heart.
By the time I rest my eyes at night,
you are my dreams as well.

You are special, unique, talented.
God couldn't have given me a greater gift.
I have finally found myself
for your love has saved me.

You are the air I breathe,
you're all I see.
As close as waves are to the ocean,
will my heart be next to yours.

I don't know where you are
or where you've been.
All I'm asking for
is the chance to win.

I've never let you see me
when I'm broken.
I've never let you
hear the sound of lies.

Do you want to taste
the words of sugar?
Or do you want
every piece of the bitter truth?

I don't know where you are,
but you've been gone.
Can you hear my heart?
It's broken...

I don't know what you're
asking for,
and I don't know
what to give.
