Guess I'm finally out of time :o(

If Time  is all I have 

When you wake up
Turn your radio on
And you'll hear this simple song
That I made up
That I made up for you

When you're driving
Turn your radio up
Cause I can't sing loud enough
Hard these days
To get my message through

If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake

When you marry
And you look around
I'll be somewhere in that crowd
Torn up, that it isn't me

When we're older
And the memories fade
I know I'll still feel the same
Yeah
For as long as I live

And if time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do

I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake
Won't you say my name, one time
Please just say my name
And if time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you

Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space
Of silences keeping me awake

If time is all I have
I'll waste it all on you
Each day I'll turn it back
It's what the broken-hearted do
I'm tired of talking to an empty space

Of silences keeping me awake

Won't you say my name
When the song is over

What can I say

Looks like I've been fooled again.
You'd think I'd have learnt not to trust anyone EVER by now wouldn't you.
Not sure if it says more about them and how cruel and undeserving they are or about me and
how worthless and unlovable I seem to be becoming and yes that's how I've been made to feel AGAIN.

Strip Me

Everyday I fight for

All my future somethings

A thousand little awards

I have to choose between

I could spend a lifetime

Earning things I don’t need

That’s like chasing rainbows

And coming home empty

And if you strip me,

Strip it all away

If you strip me,

What would you find

If you strip me,

Strip it all away

Ill be alright

Take what you want

Steal my pride

Build me up

Or cut me down to size

Shut me out

But I’ll just scream

Im only one voice in a million

But you aint taking that from me

Oh oh no you aint taking that from me 

I dont need a microphone

To say what I been thinking

My heart is like a loudspeaker

Thats always on eleven

And if you strip me,

Strip it all away

If you strip me,

What would you find

If you strip me,

Strip it all away

I’m still the same

Take what you want

Steal my pride

Build me up

Or cut me down to size

Shut me out

But I’ll just scream

Im only one voice in a million

But you aint taking that from me

Oh oh no you aint taking that from me 

Cos when it all boils down

At the end of the day

Its what you do and say

That makes you who you are

Makes you think about,

Think about it

Doesn’t it

Sometimes all it takes is one voice

Take what you want

Steal my pride

Build me up

Or cut me down to size

Shut me out

But I’ll just scream

Im only one voice in a million

But you aint taking that from me

Oh oh no you aint taking that from me

nuff said

No it isn't

OUR JOURNEY

There is a journey awaiting you
It comes in truth and promise
When you reach the point 

of not knowing who you are or where to go
This most precious but often painful passage 

is the journey of yourself
You will travel to places never before visited,
Where you meet unspoken fears and unearth buried truths
You will climb high and perilous mountains...
those that rise up from inside yourself

You will explore forgotten waters held deep in the sea of your soul
You will be stranded in the wilderness 

and find a way through pathless land
You will be lost before you are found...

You will be empty before you are full
You will cry the deep sobs of the earth
and tears of rain will cleanse the house around your heart
In time...because life, like birth and death, knows its own time
Your fears and struggles and unknowing will be transformed
You will become a mountain place where eagles soar
You will become a reflecting pool
which sees and knows the mysteries of your life

Your heart will be light like a butterfly
as you follow the currents of its true desires
The flight of the honeybee will be yours
as you seek the nectar of what brings sweetens to your daily life
Most of all you will become who you truly are
Your life will hold truth and promise and meaning
And the heart of the heavens will hold your heart.
