Lonely soul
Why do I let such little things get in my way
Can't I just live my life as if it's okay
I go through this struggle almost every single day
I wish, I wish, I could just have a bae
So he can help the pain roll away
But I know that is never to happen for I am here to stay

I just want someone to say I love you too
And they say it back with the same love I do
And I know that wish is never to Come true
Now here is what I must say to you
True love may seem true but it's clearly VOODOO

Lonely soul
How could you let your family down
How could you just let our voices drown
Underneath all your distractions
Above all our situations

Your my father, my idol, my hero
But now your just a big fat zero
You let moms heart shatter and break
You drove into her heart an old wooden stake

I don't think I can ever look at you the same
Because you are now in the hall of shame
Wait till your son hears about this big bad mess
Imagine how much more he'll think of you less

But it's whatever, go ahead and tear us apart
Just to let you know, we're strong by heart
So throw whatever you got at us.
But just remember, there's a door
Leave your keys, don't think we don't love you anymore
Grab your ticket cause here comes the bus.

Dear God,
I am not perfect
Nor will I ever be
I thank you for understanding that
And standing by me

I thank you for setting me free
From all the burdens and the pain
For forgiving me for my sins
Ones I probably commit again and again

I thank you for guiding me
And keeping me safe
For always having that umbrella over me
For being my escape

Dear God,
I know I'm not perfect
Nor will I ever be
Yet despite the fact
You will always love and cherish me
