Lullaby

Go to sleep and ill be there
All wrapped up in your dreams
Where my life fall short here
Ill make up for it all there
I wish there was a better way
To tell you...

Im in love. With you.

Sleep now and don't awaken
Until your heart is full again
The sun will change your life
But not in the same way
There must be a way
To say...

I love you.

I am new
I am old
I am weak
I am bold
I've been hot
You've been cold...

You are just
You aren't fair
You don't laugh
You don't care
I just stop
You just stare...

I'm made up
You are real
I am numb
And you can't feel
I just hide
You just conceal...

I am tired
So are you
I dont know
I know you do
We both care
We'll get a clue...

Faith is good
Give it a try
I can't speak
I don't know why
This is no joke
I will never lie...

I am black
You are blue
It all fits
Just like a shoe
Pressing on
Like real people do.

Also:

God is good
Like crazy glue
Sticking to me
Stuck on to you
Stuck together...

It's what we want to do.

Warriors

Death do us part
is what we said
Right through my heart
A piece of lead
Wheeled in a cart
I am half-dead

We kill to win
And do attack
There goes my friend
To a piece of flak
No, not again
His eyes go black

We fly so well
We go so high
Hit by a shell
Oh no, oh my
I am so young
Don't want to die

Continue on
Because he said
Berlin by dawn
Is what I read
But he's not the one
Whose as good as dead

Been fifty years
Since that last fight
But I still cry tears
And sweat in the night
Instilled with fears
'til I loose my sight

War

We start out bright and then we fall
There's not a way to cure it all
Another tough break is what we need
Another dead and pointless deed
We walk a lot, to no avail
The water is warm, the bread is stale
Eat it up with a smile on
Even when we feel all hope is gone

The ground is soft just like a bed
Surrounded by small beads of lead
Don't act surprised, just let it go
We'll make sure your parents know...

What's left of you in on some stone
Dirt and rock, not flesh and bone
They always stop and wonder who
You wonder what those slobs will do
But they just stare and move along
Like there was nothing ever wrong

...So there you are, eyes pale and fading
Beads sure are good at eliminating

Sideshow

A clown came by
saw the look on my face
and laughed
i guess i cant pull off the mask

A magician came by
told me i was a disgrace
and laughed
I didnt even try to ask

An emo kid came by
saw the tear in my eye
and laughed
i guess the hair in my face doesnt work

A demon came by
even he started to cry
but laughed
he knows in what depths i lurk

What ever will I do?

Repent.

A minister came by
into his heart i did see
i laughed
He has the same sin as me

I didnt laugh at him
I laughed at us
We are the wretched poor
the entire human populous

Lets go now
To an Eden not of earth
Free from evil
Free from mirth

The time is now
and we must go
removed from this
endless freak show

The circus is gone
our performance is done
lets live our lives
in the light of the Son.

Orchestra

The pointer is up
And conductor is poised
And isn't expecting
This type of noise
His plans were so simple
But now covered in sweat
As the "musician" blares on
His awkward trumpet

The cymbals now clash
The crowd jumps with a start
It seems just as if
They all forgot the first part
Of the beautiful music
They were all meant to play
I guess it just slipped their minds
To practice that day

A painful disturbance
The pianist is making
The crowd now stands up
Such a beating they're taking
It is terrible enough
To make a grown person cry
As the flutist suddenly groans
And immediately dies

But one musician remains poised.

He waited patiently still
Without the ruckus distracting
He wouldn't react
To the others contracting
Then the pandemonium ceased
The crowd leaving, was staying
As the lone violinist
Began with his playing

It was a pouring of heart
Some just wont understand
The precision, the beauty
The moving of his right hand

One cant help but just listen
If you don't want to, you must
Because it's the only true way
To be free and to trust

The people were moved
clapping in awe, very loudly
And the violinist bowed
And gave thanks to them proudly.

In the end was applause
For the performer, a win
Because he didn't give in
To the myriad of sin.

Forgive

I will continue on with a similar thought from Linley Jones.

Forgiveness, in certain circumstances, does not involve a "Man A" and a "Man B". In many scenarios there is but one party, and that is YOU and YOURSELF. Forgiving oneself is a difficult thing to do. There is no one else that knows your innermost thoughts but you and Father so it becomes rather hard to relay to yourself what needs to happen within yourself. It is difficult for one to put oneself outside of the body and see the true crisis going on inside.

So stop. Think. What is making you unable to look into the mirror? What is making your heart feel this way?

Once one finds out what the plague is, the only way to end the battle within is to let God forgive you. Let Father forgive you. Ask Him. Ask Him passionately. Only then will you be able to forgive your own self.

If HE takes it then you dont have it anymore, do you? So give it and be free. Please.

For your own sake, for ours, let your heart be clean again.

We are dirty, perverted thieves without it. I want a clean garment.

Lord,
I pray that were released from our self-inflicted suffering. we lift our broken and filthy hands to be cleansed. I know we dont deserve it, but please, forgive us. We are wrong without your presence. Your love. Clean us, Father, our skin is black with earth. Free us from captivity. Us Israel. You YAHWEH.
In your sons name,
Amen

His son.
