Pray
Esta es una oración por los pecadores heridos
Esta es una oración que usted tendrá éxito
Al intentar e intentar que
Pero simplemente es demasiado difícil

En Cristo, Dios o Jesús
Orar añade un poco de esperanza
Y usted puede elevarse por encima de
Il s'agit d'une prière pour ceux qui en ont besoin
Il s'agit d'une prière pour le pécheur blessés

Lorsque vous essayez et que vous essayez
Mais il est tout simplement trop difficile

Et vous élever au-dessus dans la puissance

Auch wenn Sie nicht glauben,
In Gott oder Jesus Christus
Beten fügt nur ein bisschen Hoffnung
Und Sie werden oben in sein Aufstieg

Heaven's Aire
My soul lay desolate in the pit of despair
Ravishing for a revelation, for a light to guide the way
Wallowing in my mistakes, alone I waited there
Barely living on my daily bread, shrinking smaller every day
You gave me the courage to move on; you helped to pull me up
I give thee thanks, for my soul is finally complete
For me you gave your life, you drank the bitter cup
You did not shrink, and fulfilled that which was most meet
O, my Savior, give me strength
That I might know the hour
For me you’d go to any length
For that’s your greatest power
O Father, I thank thee much for thy eternal love
That fills these empty halls
For me your Begotten Son spilt his precious blood
And gave eternal life, which is the greatest gift of all

Music
"Music is organized sound and silence."
But we musicians know better
Is there a definition
For the epiphany of emotions?
Happy, sad, mad, tired,
Or even more complex ones?
Like love, homesickness, sorrow, and joy?
Is there a definition
For the rush of joy
And nostalgia
That makes you hover
3 feet off the ground?
Or, perhaps, there is a definition
For the adrenaline high
You get from a fast-paced, anger filled rock anthem?
There is no way to describe it.
So how then can you define?
Label? Set in stone?
How can you corral a wild mustang?
How can you clip the wing of an eagle?
How can you bottle the wind?
How can you rid the ocean of its power?
These acts are inhuman.
Impossible.
Imprison the mustang, but the spirit is there.
Deprive the eagle of it's joy, but the soul of the hunter still roams free.
Bottle the wind, but the bottle will burst.
The ocean maybe be glassy smooth now,
But the lurking beast waits patiently for the strike.
Music never rests.
Science and petty words cannot contain it.
Because
Music is free.

Feelings
Thursday, December 23, 2010
Beautiful
Melancholy
A hollow stomach
My eyes beg, plead to cry
But no tears come
Memories rush the floodgate
And break the barrier
Acoustic guitars fill my ears
Though all is silent
A familiar lyric whispers
"Where?"
"Where do you belong?"
Brain cells burst trying to decide
"Not here," I answer
"Not there, either."
"Nowhere," the wind whispers
My heart sinks,
Enlarging the hollow in m gut
As I realize
The wind is right.
Suddenly, the world is a giant
And I am a bug
Insignificant
Unknown
And I curl up
Amidst the sheets
Hoping that warmth brings comfort
And I feel warmed.
Safe for one more night
One word
Only one
Can describe the way I feel when I see..
An old railroad, a run-down neighborhood
An empty street, with only a breeze as company
A baseball dugout
An old playground.
One word
Melancholy.
Homesick? No.
Depressed? No.
Melancholy. A beautiful, sorrowful mix
Between to two.
It tastes like
Strawberries. And vanilla.
Like flame-grilled burgers
And fresh corn.
It smells like
Fresh dirt
And newly fallen rain
And the resulting mudpies
It is
Those fondly-stored memories
Kept out of hope
Out of longing
That one day, you will go back.
These dreams are foolish
But they bring comfort
The only condolences
From an insensitive world
That could care less
And, as you drift off to sleep
Your heart becomes a drum
And your memories sing a song
A low, sweet ballad
That dulls the senses
And leaves you feeling
Cold
Alone
But comforted
That feeling becomes a word.
Melancholy.
The one word that keeps coming back
And haunts your dreams
As you lay alone in bed
And everything moves on.
