Quote of the Day
Last Updated 12-16-2001

Forget the Formalities

Should sleep
Can't think
Now I'm inspired again
But It's 11 PM
I should put down the pen

Looking out
Rights wrong again
With these thoughts stuck in my brain
Pondering falling rain

Forget the formalities
This is God's golden day
And nothing can take that away

Walking
Thin ice
Why this confusion again
But it's 8 AM
I should pick up the pen

Sitting here
Tilted vision
With a song stuck in my head
Pondering what I've read

Forget the formalities
This is God's golden day
And nothing can take that away

Hypocrite

You wanna say that all the little kids are wrong
That your list of lies is short, and theirs is long
But through it all, the turn and tide
You never thought to look inside
And see that it might be you
Who is untrue

You could say that all the things against you are bad
And that everyone against you must be mad
But through the life, the books, the mope
You never thought to look at hope
And see that it might be you
Who is untrue

You might carry these lies for your whole life
And being yourself down in flames of strife
But through it all, the pain, the fear
You never thought to look past here
And see that it might be you
Who is untrue

Break the Rain

With Your help
I can do the impossible
With Your help
I can catch the sun
With Your help
I can break the rain

Questions slam down like a foot to the floor
Nobody would've cared before
But now these trials seem never ending
On You more now I'm depending
I just wanna find my way through life
Luckily along my way there's a Guide

With Your help
I can do the impossible
With Your help
I can catch the sun
With Your help
I can break the rain

Solace slips away like the catch of the day
Nobody lets me have my say
They're too busy asking me questions
I lean on You so I won't fall now
Sometimes long for days I loathed all this
Sometimes long for days You know I miss

With Your help
I can do the impossible
With Your help
I can catch the sun
With Your help
I can break the rain

Climbing a rainbow like a chimp on a tree
Forgetting all that threatens me
This is how it sometimes seems
Holding on to my outworldish dreams
I find solace in You again Lord
Now I know I'll never let You go

Day to Day

Day to day, Lord
You comfort me
And lead me through the trials of life
Even when I sometimes feel trapped in strife
When I'm confused
Hanging by a hair
Solace slips away
Even then, you're there

If there's one thing that You taught me
It's when I should be sure
Of course of things in heaven
But not of things on earth
You've taught me lessons day to day
You've always helped me find my way

Day to day, Lord...

When fear strikes me deep inside
You show me I don't need to hide
You are a lamp unto my feet
And You're a Friend I'm glad to meet
You've given me grace day to day
You help me when I've lost my way

Day to day, Lord...

I've lost my map so many times
There's deep meaning to these rhymes
When the wise men saw the star
Did they think, "Oh, it's too far?"
Help me to live for You day to day
And help me to stay on my way

Calm

Calm is how I feel Joyful knowing my secret's out It's midnight now And she's known about a week
Calm is how I feel Failure never smelled so sweet It's midnight now And I can have my solace now

Calm is how I am
Feel like I'm flying away
It's midnight now
And I can rest, I'm escaping fear

Calm is how I cam
Knowing my fears will be trampled
It's midnight now
And I'm smiling yet again

Calm is where I am
Finding solace in You, Lord
It's midnight now
And I'm too full of joy to care

Calm is where I am
Failure never smelled so sweet
Calm is how I feel
And she's known about a week
Calm is how I am
Finding solace in You, Lord
Calm is how I am
Watching my fears go away
Calm...
It's midnight now
Calm...
And I'm too full of joy to care
Calm...
Calm...
And I can rest, I'm escaping fear
Calm...

Pine Needles, Because I Can

Tea party in the middle of the woods
Can't say I sweat it man
I deliver the goods
Tea party in the middle of the woods
I wouldn't get it man
I watch them eath the goods
There's a fox
And a rabbit and a squirrel
And the way they eat
Makes me wanna hurl
Tea party in the middle of the woods
Can't say I'd stop it man
Can't say I could
Tea party in the middle of the woods
I deliver the goods
Never said I always would
But it's a
Tea party in the middle of the woods
Couldn't say what I mean
If only then I would
Or maybe I might not
But that'll never change the
Tea party in the middle of the woods
The people eat like animals
The animals use silverware
It's a big tea party
And I think I've told you where
Tea party in the middle of the woods
I'm having so much fun here
Just because I could
The mice eat rice
And turtles give dirty looks
Tea party in the middle of the woods

Confession

I've found it so hard to hide
To keep it all inside
Wondering if I could rest
Until I've confessed

I could let you hear it as the circus monkey sings
I might think in solace to the sound of chiming rings

If you knew what I knew now
You would ask me how
Pelted with this question storm
Repelling the norm

I could keep it inside and not tell you who it is
I might let it out now and show you just who it is

Will I make the same mistake
Life's full of give and take
Should I tell you quite today
Or wait another day

I could wrap my secrets in a cloth of mystery
I might take a chance here and confess who is this she
