hold on.

My soul is weak
My heart is numb
I cannot see
But still my hope is found in You
I’ll hold on tightly
You will never let me go
For Jesus, You will never fail
Jesus, You will never fail

Simply to the cross I cling
Letting go of all earthly things
I'm clinging to the cross
Mercy’s found a way for me
Hope is here as I am free
Jesus, You are all I need
I'm clinging to the cross

Even darkness is as light to You, my Lord
So light the way and lead me home
To that place where every tear is wiped away
For Jesus, You will never fail
Jesus, You will never fail

Simply to the cross I cling
Letting go of all earthly things
I'm clinging to the cross
Mercy’s found a way for me
Hope is here as I am free
Jesus, You are all I need
I'm clinging to the cross

What a Saviour, what a story
You were crucified but now You are alive
So amazing, such a mystery
You were crucified but now You are alive

Simply to the cross I cling
Letting go of all earthly things
I'm clinging to the cross
Mercy’s found a way for me
Hope is here as I am free
Jesus, You are all I need
I'm clinging to the cross

nothing and everything makes sense

a tree to climb
a smile to give
a heart to melt
a life to live

a word to say
a kite to fly
a hand to hold
a step to try

an ocean to swim
a cave to find
a place to remember
a soul to bind

a song to sing
a book to read
a ship to sail
a person in need

sing song sang sing, la la la

the truth

if only you knew it's not about you.
it's about how i can't breathe.
it's about how i've lost the ability to hope.
it's about how i don't know how to explain myself.
you think it's about you. it's not.
it's about how words don't do enough.
it's about how i don't even understand.
it's about how i'm already on the ground, beaten.
help me forget that it's not about anyone..

..but You.

hope come, fill my heart and free me from this.

more

there's more. more to this, more than this.
neutrality. it's what it is.
as for me, i need to look forward.
everything is more important than this.
neutrality. it's not enough.

learning......&burning.

learning.
learning that not everything has to go my way,
learning that i don't necessarily need you,
learning that figuring out who i am is far more important,
learning that i can't trust many,
learning that my emotions and my heart are more fragile than i thought,
learning that taking it slow is worth it,
learning that laughing really makes things better,
learning that love, real love, can make this all better.

it's the hardest when being burned left and right is the best way to learn something new, but i've never been one to listen right away. i'm happy, i'm sad. i'm hopeful, i'm disappointed. i'm filled, i'm emptied. and i'm loved.

the solution.

so what if i'm wrong and what if you're right? or what if i'm right and what if you're wrong?

it doesn't matter because the way i feel about you, the way i love you, is always right. forgive my words, forgive my actions (or lack thereof) because i don't want to lose you. hold my hand, i think you can make it better.

tonight

I'm sorry
Two words I always think
After you've gone
When I realize I was acting all wrong

So selfish
Two words that could describe
Oh actions of mine
When patience is in short supply

We don't need to say goodbye
We don't need to fight and cry
Oh we, we could hold each other tight tonight

We're so helpless
We're slaves to our impulses
We're afraid of our emotions
And no one knows where the shore is
We're divided by the ocean
And the only thing I know is
That the answer isn't for us
No the answer isn't for us

I'm sorry
Two words I always think
Oh after you've gone
When I realize I was acting all wrong

We don't need to say goodbye
We don't need to fight and cry
We, we could hold each other tight tonight
