Fall Divorce
The heavy fog is lifting
Common sense is setting in
The hold you had over me is easing
And I can finally start to breathe
I woke up today, and the sun decided to shine
I can see the light at the end of this tunnel
And I woke up today
And God came out today
To shine down on my face
He took me by the hand
With the wind at my back
He whispered in my ear
As the leaves fell from the trees
He reassured me that the hardship would subside
With a soft kiss from the misty rain
And I woke up today
And God came out today
To shine down on my face
A reminder of my strength echoed in the distance
With the sound of the rolling train
Worthless Girl
This is a new song I wrote. It’s a working collaboration with my daughter. A new video will be coming very soon for you to enjoy. -JustOrdinary
I’m digging my way out
Of this hole you tried to bury me in
I’m reaching for the light
I will put myself together again
Piece by piece
Hear me when I say
I’m not the worthless girl
Hear me when I say
I’m not the one at fault
The world will see what you’ve done
In my flawed reflection of you
My blank stare of destitution
They will see me weeping
Though tears will not flow
Hear me when I say
I’m not the worthless girl
Hear me when I say
Hear me….(background vocal lightly echoing)
Hear me…(background vocal lightly echoing)
I’m the flawed reflection of you
The reflection in your eyes
And it’s the battle within that you never win
Because it’s you, that you’ve been up against
Hear me when I say
You were not the worthless boy
You were never at fault
Piece by piece
Piece by piece (background vocal)
Hear me…(background vocal)
Hear me…(background vocal)
My minds made up
Hear me when I say
I’m not the worthless girl
I’m not at fault
And my minds made up
There’s no going back this time
Please hear me (low whisper singing)
Please hear me (low whisper singing)
All the damage that’s been done
Is locked inside my head
But piece by piece (increase vocal sound)
I’ll be whole again (increase vocal sound a little more)
But hear me when I say (Increase vocal sound even more)
I’m not the worthless girl (End with a soulful loud vocal line)
A Stained Glass Masquerade
-
The Stained Glass Masquerade
Would it set me free
If I dare to let you see
The truth behind the person
That you imagine me to be
Would your arms be open?
Or would you walk away?
Would the love of Jesus be enough to make you stay?
Are we happy plastic people?
Under shiny plastic steeples?
With walls around our weakness?
Smiles to hide our pain?
