It's Okay

You act like you don’t care.
You act like the world never fazes you,
but I know the truth.
I can see right through the show you put on.
Every day Is the same,
you act so tough,
I think it’s lame.
Just be who you are,
no need to be afraid.
It’s okay to show that you’re upset
It’s okay to say that your day wasn’t made
It’s okay to be imperfect and broken
Stop lying to the world and yourself
Just show me you
Please be true
It’s okay

Here I am Lord

Here I am,
here I am again
in this place I’ve been a thousand times,
struggling to keep my mind.
Oh Lord, help me with this now.
I can’t take it anymore.
I’m tired and I’m sick of this.
I keep coughing up this bothersome mess
Sometimes I wish I didn’t care
but I can’t help it even if I dare
Oh Lord, hold me tonight
I just want to know you’re here
I just want to hear you say
“I’ve got it all under control”
Oh Lord, things seem hopeless now
It happened so many times
When will it end?
Please tell me when it will end
I’m sick of all this worry
My heart aches when I think of them
I’m so helpless when it comes to this
Oh Lord, I’m not sure what to do
I guess I should just give it to You
I know You have it all,
holding it in Your hand,
but I can’t stop worrying
I can’t stop thinking of it
and I can’t stop the ache in my heart
Oh Lord, please heal me
because here I am.
Here I am again
kneeling at your feet.
You know where I’ve been
and You know where I am now,
right where I was before.

How many times?

How many times will this happen?
How many times will you say?
“I’m done with that Moving on “
but there you sat
staying in the same place.
When will this end?
this string of heart ache.
You twist and you bend,
I don’t want to see you break.
So I ask
how many times will you keep going back?
How many times will you change your mind?
Common sense is what you lack.
I thought you realized,
I thought you knew
how much you’ve compromised
I thought you knew it too
but you go back on your word
You never come through.
You talk the talk,
what you say isn’t true,
You can’t walk the walk.
Can you not see the cue?
Walk away now,
I don’t think I can take it anymore.
I see where you were,
I see how far you’ve come,
but now it doesn’t look like you’ve gone far.
I know it’s a struggle
but after this much time
you’d think you’d realize by now.
So I ask you,
I ask you again
how many times will you lie?
How many times will you let this go on?
How many times will you make me want to cry?
I can’t take it anymore.
I can’t take it anymore.
Will this never end?

I can't live without You

I’ve come to see it all,
the bigger picture.
I can’t live without you.
I could live without all the money in the world
I could live without a house,
a roof over my head.
I could live without possesions
or even without any friends.
I’d still be alive
I’d still breath
but without you
everything falls apart.
Even if I seemed to have “everything”
You hold everything together
I can’t live without you
