I Should Have Known

I was looking to close to the sun,
I should have just burned up instead.
So won’t you leave my heart to rest?
I should have seen the look in your eyes,
The ominous stares, the random cry's
I should have seen all the damn signs,
Where you drew all these red lines.
Now all our bridges are burning down.
I’ll let your love burn through the ground.
Your words still cut through the scars.
Scattered in the ashes,
Everything has gone away.
You made me go insane.

I should have known this would have ended like this.
I should have known there was no other way.
I should have known by the shape you were in.
I should have known, I was inside of you,
I should have known that side to you.
I should have known having been here before.

No I can’t forgive you yet.
My hopes have gone up in smoke waiting for you
So give me some rope I am coming loose,
And I am going after you.
Your indecision has got me climbing up a wall.
I can’t help tear out all who is involved.
So let me put you in your place,
So tell me what is in it for me?
I am not giving up or giving in,
You’re stuck with all that haunts you.
You think living like this is going to change who you are?
You got away from me, now you better run far.

I should have known you would have left me out to dry.
I should have known you would have broken what was left inside. 
I should have known by the company you keep,
I should have known you would have used me to abuse me,
and left me here to die with a smile on your face.
I should have known....

The End Times?

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains. (Matthew 24:6-8; Mark 13:7-8 NIV).Mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God -- having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them. (2 Timothy 3:1-5 NIV). But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. (2 Peter 3:10 NIV). An

Being Happy

Question; if you had one month to live could you truly be happy with your life? Maybe you lost something along the way. Maybe you completely ruined your lives by the choices you made. Honestly, I think we get so caught up with what we have done in our lives that it’s not really as important as we make it out to be. It’s not about boasting about all the accomplishments you have done or your wall of degrees. We feel that we need to be this machine in order to be this sinless person. We live believing that by the works I have done, that is what’s going to get me into heaven. I notice a lot of people in my city that go to help feed the homeless, but they come in and they feed, and then go home. What is wrong with this picture? Jesus sat with the homeless; eat with them, fellowshipped with the homeless. We can’t truly understand or relate with what people have been through unless we get down to their level. I feel like if this is the way people are severing God than it is all wrong. If yo

All I Need

Dropped to his knees, He sits reaching for freedom, Tears fall from his tired eyes. I do believe, I do believe, You are all I need. His already broken heart shatters again. As he reaches for those once empty pieces, They turn into dust… Here he lays begging and pleading, Let me see you’re beauty, Take my hand and lead me, Because I do believe, I do believe, You are all I need. My soul longs for your presence, You can have what is left of it. Mold me into your beauty, Because I do believe, I do believe, All I need is Jesus.
