Paths Entwined
Every person
On every path
Leaves a trail behind
When two paths cross
The trails… now left
Will forever be combined
Soon those trails
Become a web
Of lives that we have known
On my path
Which leads my life
Your trail has really shown

The Missing Piece
A part of me is missing
A part I cannot see
The gap within my heart
I’m searching for desperately
Fill it up with friends
But soon I find again
The gap within my heart
I’m searching for desperately
Plug it up with ignorance
Then it drains down, and leaves
The gap within my heart
I’m searching for desperately
Tune it out with life
Until I’m forced to see
The gap within my heart
I’m searching for desperately
Turn to God for help
And that’s when he shows me
The gap within my heart
That Jesus filled for me

This Is Just To Say
One word can change a life forever
So be careful what you say
With all the words we’ve shared
Life will never be the same
It’s too late now
We can’t go back
We filled the others life
With desperation, pain, and grief
In this never ending battle
Full of deception, fear, and rage
Fifteen years have come and gone
And even though I’ve left
The battle still rages
Behind closed doors
And now I'm full of hate
(Freshman Year)
Warning
When I am old I will not care
‘bout what I say or what I wear
I’ll take pills morning, noon, and night
Then I’ll sit down and watch the price is right
I’ll drink lots of prune juice
To keep my bowels loose
I’ll be the one who wants to see
Things the way they used to be
I’ll talk about the young hoodlums full of rage
Who should have seen what life was like when I was their age
I’ll feel my knee in lot’s of pain
Right before it starts to rain
I’ll talk about the “good old days”
When we were teens going through our rebellious phase
Now that all is said and told
Thank God that I am not yet old
