Sunrise
Attineo Jan 2015
I will watch you here;
I will keep you safe with me
Until the sunrise,
When it spears the eye with light,
Death and dark fleeing behind.

Strong
Attineo Feb 2015
I want to make quiet music
that is so strong
you want to play it loud.

Shine
Attineo Feb 2015
There were lights
To guide the way
Stars that shine
Shone in the day

Closed my eyes
To think of them
Inner light
Shone like a gem

If only light
Could always stay
I would wait
A million days.

Rest
Attineo Jan 2015
Let the darkness have a rest,
Give yourself a break;
Accept encouragement and respect,
And let go of the ache.

Feel the right outside the wrong,
Don’t do this on your own;
There’s more than dark to run from here,
Just realize you can be home.

Don’t chase yourself in circles—
Insight comes with the dawn;
And when no strength remains within,
Draw from the One you depend on.

You've Never Lost Me (Song)
Attineo Feb 2015
I’m running in the darkness,
Running from myself;
I’ve been running for so long now,
Myself is someone else.

Despair had my heart in pieces,
I wanted to run and hide,
But I couldn’t run away from myself
And escape all the voices inside

I’m lost without Your justice,
I’m sick without Your peace.
I’m dying without Your loving touch,
And I’m chained without Your key.

When I’ve lost my way
You’ve never lost me.
When I’m frozen in the pain
You’ve never lost me.


I will fail at everything I try to do,
‘Cause I’m nothing without You.
I only know one thing is true:
When I’ve lost my way and I’m afraid,
You’ve never lost me.
When I’ve lost my way
You’ve never lost me.
When I’m frozen in the pain
You’ve never lost me.


Secure in my possessions,
I was trying to save myself;
Discovering my weakness,
Myself was all that was left.

I covered every blemish,
Abandoned all my dreams;
Maybe if I lost myself,
I wouldn’t want to scream.

When I’ve lost my way
You’ve never lost me.
When I’m frozen in the pain
You’ve never lost me.


I will fail at everything I try to do,
‘Cause I’m nothing without You.
I only know one thing is true:
When I’ve lost my way and I’m afraid,
You’ve never lost me.
When I’ve lost my way
You’ve never lost me.
When I’m frozen in the pain
You’ve never lost me.


Can You take this mess of me?
Can I forget all I knew?
Can You build me up again?
Can I just belong to you?


You’ve never lost me, You’ve never lost me
(You’ve ne-ver lost me)
You’ve never lost me, You’ve never lost me
(You’ve ne-ver lost me)


I will fail at everything I try to do,
‘Cause I’m nothing without You.
I only know one thing is true:
When I’ve lost my way and I’m afraid,
You’ve never lost me.
When I’ve lost my way
You’ve never lost me.
When I’m frozen in the pain
You’ve never lost me.



When I’ve lost my way (You’ve ne-ver lost me) (I'm lost without you)
You’ve never lost me. (I'm lost without you)
When I’m frozen in the pain (You’ve ne-ver lost me) (I'm lost without you)
You’ve never lost me. (I'm lost without you)

When I’ve lost my way (You’ve ne-ver lost me) (I'm lost without you)
You’ve never lost me. (I'm lost without you)
When I’m frozen in the pain (You’ve ne-ver lost me) (I'm lost without you)
You’ve never lost me. (I'm lost without you)

Thread
Attineo Jan 2015
You are the gold thread;
Life is a yard of fabric
You can choose to weave.
Other threads weaving
May intertwine with your frame,
But darkness severs,
And light may accept them home.
Though the end is far,
You cannot wait to live life;
Weave your tapestry,
Run the line and chase the sun
Until it westward sets.
Light that grasps won’t let go;
dark that reaches can be thrown back.

Climate will change, yes
Weather is never the same;
But His love remains.

Ask
Attineo Jan 2015
Ask
Lift your face
Look to the hills
Help will come
When you ask for it.
Psalm 121:1-2
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
    where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
    the Maker of heaven and earth.

Lifted
Attineo Jan 2015
My life is too short
To focus on the sadness
And depravity.
I will set my eyes on You
And all that You are in me.
I will lift my eyes unto the hills; where does my hope come from?
My hope comes from the Lord, the maker of Heaven and Earth.

Angels
Attineo Jan 2015
Light will meet the dark
In an exchange of battle;
Dark will seem stronger,
But light will win in the end.
It was foretold from the start.

Inspire
Attineo Feb 2015
What inspires me?

Is it beauty?
Is it sadness?
Is it destruction that makes way for a new beginning?

Is it love?
Is it hate?
Is it the yearning inside for something true?

Is it joy?
Is it despair?
Is it the hope that comes with the morning?

Is it peace?
Is it chaos?
Is it the thoughts in my head that always argue?

What inspires me?

They are all the same,
The opposite and the right;
States of mind and a place
Where I constantly fight.

What inspires me?

Hate cannot win over love:
Joy lives alongside fears;
Chaos breeds peace from above,
And beauty and sadness bring tears.

So what inspires me?
Is it everything?
Surely there has to be
One all-consuming thing.

Is it simply living?  Or living simply?
I cannot choose a one,
But life is the realm where I'll always be,
And Death has never won.

— The End —
