hmmm.... Porn? Listening to Escape the Fate, FF5, Gavin DeGraw, and TAN while I write haha

When next you venture to those sites//
I hope God turns your sights on him//
And shows you a life without sin//
Saving you from this pain//
All of your guilt and shame//
There's no need to be afraid//


(Chorus)
You don't need what these sites give you//
Lean on God, He'll pull you through//
Don't lead your life down this road//
Cuz you'll regret it before your old//
You cannot do this on your own//
It's impossible when your alone//
(Chorus end)

If you intend to change who you are//
Get some Christian help before you're scarred//
Lean on Him and the people He leads//
They can help to adjust your needs//
From lookin at those sites to lookin at His words//
He can you teach you how to heal your hurts//

You don't need what these sites give you//
Lean on God, He'll pull you through//
Don't lead your life down this road//
Cuz you'll regret it before your old//
You cannot do this on your own//
It's impossible when your alone//

Mike tells you the Lord's by your side//
With waiting arms to pull you inside//
From out of the pouring rain//
Made of your sin and pain//
Burning images in your mind//
Ruining even the best of times//


You don't need what these sites give you//
Lean on God, He'll pull you through//
Don't lead your life down this road//
Cuz you'll regret it before your old//
You cannot do this on your own//
It's impossible when your alone//
(You can't quit this without surrender//
Go to Him, cuz His love is tender//) Which is better?

Lay it all down at his feet//
Tell Him all of your hurts and needs//
Show Him the hole in your heart//
That all of this sin ripped apart//
He can fill it more than before//
With Love that lasts forevermore//

You don't need what these sites give you//
Lean on God, He'll pull you through//
Don't lead your life down this road//
Cuz you'll regret it before your old//
You cannot do this on your own//
It's impossible when your alone//

END.
What two lines should I keep in the chorus? (see 3rd chorus for different lines)

Haunted. lol I'm listening to OWP right now too.

By: Cody Pryer and Eric Claassen


What do you ask of me Lord?//
Forget all the past of us//
We're acquaintances at best//
Could I forget about us?//

(Chorus)
I'm haunted//
By this sinful trail you're blazin'//
Shaken//
Unsure of the decisions I'm makin'//
Shattered//
I know it was intentional hurt//
Crushed//
By the weight of the world//
(Chorus end)

I'm shadowed by your action//
It split my heart to fractions//
Impulse led one direction//
The way towards desolation//

I'm haunted//
By this sinful trail you're blazin'//
Shaken//
Unsure of the decisions I'm makin'//
Shattered//
I know it was intentional hurt//
Crushed//
By the weight of the world//

(Bridge)
And in writing this//
I hope you read these words//
I'm here for you//
Even though this hurts//
I care too damn much//
No, this can't be love
This is nothing good//
(Bridge end)

I'm haunted//
this sinful trail you're blazin'//
Shaken//
Unsure of the decisions I'm makin'//
Shattered//
I know it was intentional hurt//
Crushed//
By the weight of the world//

I like this one's title a lot. It reminds me of Skillet haha --->Alive

Alive
By: Cody Pryer

I feel so alive you see//
Like there's a fire inside of me//
Burning so bright//
With yearning for your light//
All I want is to be yours//
From now until forever more//

You say that death is quick//
But Jesus beat it with two sticks//
Nailed together in a Roman cross//
So he could save the sick and lost//
You think the Bible's a lie//
But when I read it, I feel alive//

(Chorus)
I feel so alive//
Like there's a fire inside//
Burning//
With yearning for you//
All I want is to be yours//
From now until forever more//
I feel so alive//
Like there's a fire deep inside//
Growing//
With knowing you//
I finally see the truth//
(Chorus ends)

You think you can't do wrong//
But listen close to this song//
And I'll tell you true things//
You've doubted since you could speak//
This Lord above us so high//
Really exists in the sky//

I feel so alive//
Like there's a fire inside//
Burning//
With yearning for you//
All I want is to be yours//
From now until forever more//
I feel so alive//
Like there's a fire deep inside//
Growing//
With knowing you//
I finally see the truth//

Are you starting to see the truth//
That Jesus died for me and you//
Just open up your eyes and see//
It's not an impossibility//
So will you please believe//
He caused blind men to see//

I feel so alive//
Like there's a fire inside//
Burning//
With yearning for you//
All I want is to be yours//
From now until forever more//
I feel so alive//
Like there's a fire deep inside//
Growing//
With knowing you//
I finally see the truth//

(Bridge)
Please hear what I'm sayin//
Cuz for you I've been prayin//
That you see what he's done//
And there's still more to come//
And you won't have to worry//
No, you won't have to hurry//
All it takes is for you to say//
You believe He died that day//
Yeah, you believe in Him every way//
(Bridge ends)

I feel so alive//
Like there's a fire inside//
Burning//
With a yearning for you//
All I want is to be yours//
From now until forever more//
I feel so alive//
Like there's a fire deep inside//
Growing//
With knowing you//
I finally see the truth//

So, someone on Formspring told me to write a song. here it is. titled the Road I'm on.

I did that for them in memory//

Of all you went through to be with me//
But at some point you just gave up//
And decided you were never in love//
So I'm writing this from my pain//
Hoping you'll never forget my name//

This is my love song//
My heartbreaking song//
Telling you how I feel//
I hope you know it's real//

(Chorus)
I'm sorry I'm not what you wanted//
I failed to be just what you needed//
I'm taking
back my heart now//
Since I'm all on my own, without you now//(Okay, this line probably needs to be changed.)
So here's my goodbye, it's not wrapped up with a ribbon//
Don't tell me more lies, I'm saying this is good riddance//
Like the old Green Day song//
It's just a turning point in the road I'm on//

(Chorus end)

What did I do to deserve this//
I feel so totally worthless//
For depending so much on you//
Now look what it's brought me to//

I'm sorry I'm not what you wanted//
I failed to be just what you needed//
I'm taking
back my heart now//
Since I'm all on my own, without you now//(Okay, this line probably needs to be changed.)
So here's my goodbye, it's not wrapped up with a ribbon//
Don't tell me more lies, I'm saying this is good riddance//
Like the old Green Day song//
It's just a turning point in the road I'm on//


This is my heartbreak song//
Telling me what I've done wrong//
I hope I can finally learn//
To avoid this love that burns//

I'm sorry I'm not what you wanted//
I failed to be just what you needed//
I'm taking
back my heart now//
Since I'm all on my own, without you now//
(Okay, this line probably needs to be changed.)
So here's my goodbye, it's not wrapped up with a ribbon//
Don't tell me more lies, I'm saying this is good riddance//
Like the old Green Day song//
It's just a turning point in the road I'm on//



(Bridge)
The road I'm on is twisting and turning//
Filled with swerves because I'm full of yearning//
To be held close by someone new//
But I'm not healthy enough, and it's because of you//
So this is goodbye, you don't deserve a ribbon//
Like that Green Day song, I'm saying to you, good riddance!//
(Bridge end)

I'm sorry I'm not what you wanted//
I failed to be just what you needed//
I'm taking
back my heart now//
Since I'm all on my own, without you now//(Okay, this line probably needs to be changed.)
So here's my goodbye, it's not wrapped up with a ribbon//
Don't tell me more lies, I'm saying this is good riddance//
Like the old Green Day song//
It's just a turning point in the road I'm on//

I'm gonna write this as I sit here, just thinking about stuff, so bear with how lame it might be, okay? This is about my spiritual journey I am on.

To You, God.
By: Cody Pryer

I'm not gonna be datin//
Till I'm technically Asian//
'Cause I'm making my way//
From the East USA//
To the other side of the ocean//
The opposite side of the ocean//

I'm not talking 'bout the Atlantic, it's the Pacific I mean//
I wanna reach the other side of that, see//
Cuz in New York where I was, the black and white lines were fuzzed//
I wasn't acting myself, not respecting everyone else//
I realized I needed help, not a simple small fix//
No I needed serious help, the kind only my God can give//

(CHORUS)
I lift my life to you God//
My whole life in your hands//
Shape me as you will//
Mountain or a mole hill//
Shape me big or small//
You are my all in all//
I lift my hands to you God//
(END CHORUS)

I'm flyin over Michigan, Through to Wisconson//
Drivin into Minnesota, and out past South Dakota//
Looking for where the black top ends, hat's where the hard path will begin//
The tires may burst, the heat might dehydrate me//
But if there's one thing I know, it's that He set me free!//
Free to be all I can be, and become who he made me to be//

I lift my life to you God//
My whole life in your hands//
Shape me as you will//
Mountain or a mole hill//
Shape me big or small//
You are my all in all//
I lift my hands to you God//

I'm riding a Harley through Montana, a stunt plane above Idaho//
Bought a Ford in Double U A (WA), to get me the rest of the way//
Drove through a lot of snow, just to get up into Juneau//
Hitch-hiked though Alaska, took a boat across to Russia//
Floated across the Bering Sea down into the North Pacific//
Coasted down the Gulf of Tartary, into the East Sea//

I lift my life to you God//
My whole life in your hands//
Shape me as you will//
Mountain or a mole hill//
Shape me big or small//
You are my all in all//
I lift my hands to you God//

BRIDGE
I'm arriving in Japan now, no one to welcome me//
But I can shower from my journey, my lesson in Geography//
Maybe I can even rest my head on something and not keep bouncing on the bed//
I landed in Noshiro, took a smooth plane ride to Tokyo//
Now I'm in Japan, all alone//
But not for much longer I know//
For I got some plans before me, with this girl, says she adores me//
That I finally might put into play//
Things just might go my way//
END BRIDGE

I lift my life to you God//
My whole life in your hands//
Shape me as you will//
Mountain or a mole hill//
Shape me big or small//
You are my all in all//
I lift my hands to you God//
ENDDDD
sorry if it kinda sucks. What ya think?

Wrote this a couple months ago. Like January. It's about letting go, and learning to move on from my biggest mistake. The title is Let the Rain Fall

Let the rain fall and wash away//
All the things I did for your love yesterday//
Let the flames grow, and burn a hole//
Through the words you said about growing old//

I once thought if I loved you//
You'd love me too, but now I know that isn't true//
So where do I go now, where can I run//
If just to get out and have some fun?//

(CHORUS)
Let the rain fall and wash away//
All the things I did for your love yesterday//
Let the flames grow, and burn a hole//
Through the words you said about growing old//
Let the thunder strike, and the bells ring//
As I let go of these memories//
Let the sun rise, as I open my eyes//
And I realize that we're not meant to be//
(END CHORUS)

As the wheels roll faster, I'm taken farther away//
From the chance to speak aloud the words I'd say//
I think if I'd said the words I wanted to say//
We would still be dwelling upon yesterday//

Let the rain fall and wash away//
All the things I did for your love yesterday//
Let the flames grow, and burn a hole//
Through the words you said about growing old//
Let the thunder strike, and the bells ring//
As I let go of these memories//
Let the sun rise, as I open my eyes//
And I realize that we're not meant to be//

If I asked you to leave, then begged you to stay//
Would you have stayed with me, or just gone away?//
I think I'm finally learning to lean on God//
Instead of you, tell me, IS THAT SO WRONG?//

Let the rain fall and wash away//
All the things I did for you yesterday//
Let the flames grow, and burn a hole//
Through the words you said about growing old//
Let the thunder strike, and the bells ring//
As I let go of these memories//
Let the sun rise, as I open my eyes//
And I realize that we're not meant to be//

I'm learning to lean so now that you know//
You're free to stay but I think you should go//
If the Lord is with me, why don't I feel free?//
These chains I'm wearing were tightened on me!//
So I'll break free with his eternal power//
And I'll leave you in my finest hour//
I'm not sure where I'll go from here//
But I'm prayin to him that my path is clear//

Let the rain fall and wash away//
All the things I did for you yesterday//
Let the flames grow, and burn a hole//
Through the words you said about growing old//
Let the thunder strike, and the bells ring//
As I let go of these memories//
Let the sun rise, as I open my eyes//
And I realize that we're not meant to be//
END
Wow, that was a lot of editing from the original. haha whatya think?

Bad day. it's titled Just Friends

I guess I was wrong//
For writing you that song//
Since you didn't even care//
And now I'm gasping for air//
I feel so damn stupid for ever believing//
This big web of lies that you were secretly weaving//

(CHORUS)
I knew I was wrong//
You didn't care all along//
And now I'm all stuck//
From the blow you just struck//
Straight to my heart//
I'm waiting for it to start again//
But we're still just friends//
(end chorus)

You'd rather have him//
Who you barely know//
Instead of me, you knew//
When I was ready to go//
I know I'm retarded for wanting to start it//
This weird thing we had, I guess it was just a fad//

I knew I was wrong//
You didn't care all along//
And now I'm all stuck//
From the blow you just struck//
Straight to my heart//
I'm waiting for it to start again//
But we're still just friends//

So I'm going, good bye now//
I'm walking right out the door//
I hope you're happy with him//
Instead of me, like before//
I know I'm stupid no need to remind me//
About how I fell for your lies and your trickery//
END
What ya thinkk?

Crash Landing- First song I wrote about my God:)

He always listens
For your call.
He's always watching
For your fall.
He's gonna be there
to show that he cares
And no matter what you do
He'll always be with you

Trust in him, not your own understanding
Cuz without him, we're all (just)? crash-landing
He's there to take away your pain
Nothing to lose but a life to gain

He always listens
For your call.
He's always watching
For your fall.
He's gonna be there
to show that he cares
And no matter what you do
He'll always be with you

We should pray to the God up above
For the strength, to love and be loved
I think we all should kneel and pray
For the strength to get through the day.

He always listens
For your call.
He's always watching
For your fall.
He's gonna be there
to show that he cares
And no matter what you do
He'll always be with you


(Bridge)
We should all pray
For the blessings to fall
Lift up our voice
So he'll hear our call
We should all pray
For the blessings to fall
Lift up our voice
So he'll hear our call

He always listens
For your call.
He's always watching
For your fall.
He's gonna be there
to show that he cares
And no matter what you do
He'll always be with you

Verses-Am/A,G,F,G
(chorus-C, Am, Em, G)
Bridge- C, Em/B, Bb dim, Am
This one, unlike the others, has music being written for it, hence these last three lines of text above:)^^^

Keep Me From Falling -- It's about how God is bringing me back from my mistakes:)

Keep Me From Falling
by CJ PRYER

Verse one:
I hated her for the things she had me do//
Then I heard a voice say, "It's not her, it's you''//
No one made you make the choices you made//
And now this broken heart is the price you've paid//
"Now be honest with yourself,"//
"it's all your fault, can't you tell?"//

Chorus:
Don't let me be a hypocrite//
Give me humility and wit//
I need you to get me through//
Cause all my faith is put in you//
Don't let me be a hypocrite//
Give me humility and wit//
I need you to get me through//
Cause all my faith is put in you//
So Lord I'm calling//
please keep me from falling!//
end chorus

She won't talk to me after all we went through//
Then I think to myself, "it's her, it's not you"//
"it's her choice not yours, so just give up"//
"Maybe after all you weren't in love"//
"So just learn to lean on Him"//
"Cause with her, your life was sin"//

Don't let me be a hypocrite//
Give me humility and wit//
I need you to get me through//
Cause all my faith is put in you//
Don't let me be a hypocrite//
Give me humility and wit//
I need you to get me through//
Cause all my faith is put in you//
So Lord I'm calling//
please keep me from falling!//

Finally in my life, I'm changing everything//
From who I tell about you, to the music I sing//
Every Sunday in church, I give my offering//
Not in money, I'm broke, but in the (worship I bring/music I sing? --which is better?)//
I love you more than I used to//
I'm ashamed cause it's something new//

Don't let me be a hypocrite//
Give me humility and wit//
I need you to get me through//
Cause all my faith is put in you//
Don't let me be a hypocrite//
Give me humility and wit//
I need you to get me through//
Cause all my faith is put in you//
So Lord I'm calling//
please keep me from falling!//
enddddd
whatya think?
