Which side of the looking glass
am I even in?
Does is even matter?

when looking to help,
don't give a man a life jacket
when he's dying
of thirst
because kindness born from ignorance
can be
just as cruel
as hatred born from pain.

.. we looked away when tragedy struck
                          would it make us better people..?
                                                      o­r would it just show..
                                                          ­               ..who we really are
                                                           ­                                             *inside..?
Sing in bed with me,
deep beneath the sheets.

My dear, my love
I know things seem
Impossible and painful
And they fill you with
Worry and guilt
But remember the beauty
In the world

The sweet voice of a child
An endless universe with
Galaxies we do not yet know
The way the sun shines off the mountains
The ocean tide, constant and unending
A melody that lifts your heart
The colors of nature all around you
The way your body fights to keep you alive
The goodness of strangers
Charity and love
Your father’s kindness
And your own strength
The perfect love of a God you know exists
And the universe He’s created for you

You will be okay
We will be okay
The scars of the world will be healed
Yours will be too
Nothing is beyond His reach
His perfect sight
And though things seem dim
All will be well in time

Sin
And when my body aches for your touch
And the world seems
To distance itself
I cry into the night
Of broken dreams
Wishing you were here

How we used to lie as one
On this bed
We made our own
Catching every minute when
Our love making
Would never end

But these sheets feel so cold
And my heart breaks
And alone I hold
Dreams of us in the night
Come now my baby
Tell me now
I'm not to old show me how

Hiding in this darkened room
I can see a place we once knew
Why did I let it slip away
And cry in the night
I start to prey

I'm a fool that couldn't hold you right
Love doesn't make
Darkness light
I shoulda given
More to you
Instead
Of not being true

I want to scream the name out loud
Wake the world
Shake the crowd
But I know it's gone for good
Only loneliness
Kisses my heart
