Song #1

Nickname: Cameron
The pain it stays hidden,
I keep it deep inside.
It only appears when
You are near to me.
I remember, all of the days.
I remember, all of the ways.
You made me feel happier
Then I have ever been before.

But now, there's so much heartbreak,
I can't believe I made this mistake,
I'm numb from all the pain!
At first, I tried to realize
That I could still feel alive.
But then, I saw you the other day,
I didn't know what I should say,
'Cuz for me, it still hurts,
And the mem'ry hurts even worse.
Now I wish that I would heal!
And I wish I could feel.

But now, there's so much heartbreak.
I can't believe I made this mistake.
I'm numb from all the pain!
And now, I feel so lonely.
My heart, it feels so empty;
And life's just not the same.

(Instrumental)

And now, I feel so lonely.
My heart, it feels so empty;
And life's just not the same.

"I Will"

I will stand strong at all times
I will always stay true to my beliefs
I will not settle for second best
I will consider others opinions but go with my gut instinct

I will walk alone
If I'm being lead down a path I feel isn't right
I will remember my principles and act upon them

When times are rough
Remember there's always someone that will be there for you
No matter what
You may answer by saying; family, friends, a loved one and such
While all of this may be true; the answer is yourself

I will be an individual and not a carbon copy of someone else
I will achieve my goals and make it my mission
To succeed in making the most out of life

Show Me How To Love

Lyrics: CHORUS: Show me how to love,
'cuz I don't think I know.
The love I've known can't be real love;
this can't be how love goes. (repeat)

Love should be a feeling; a feeling that we share
unconditional and unending, a love that's always there.

So show me how to love and ! put my past aside...for the love
I want to give away is a love stronger than pride.

CHORUS

So show me how to love...Thy will be done I pray. As You guide
me into righteousness Your love will light the way!

CHORUS

Song #4

Nickname: Love

$6

Lyrics: I am broke and bored and broken since you left this home of mine. It was a shockin' awe at first, dear, and now I'm half out of my mind.

The other day the dog was hungry he was barkin' up a storm. I would've fed him some of my food but all I had was a can of creamed corn!

Chorus: And all because I was cheap and selfish; man, I should've changed my wicked ways 'cuz I been livin' on $6 for the last four days and I've only got myself, myself to blame!

Now it's been four days since you left I guess I'll never be the same. I always thought it would last forever and someday you'd take my name.

CHORUS

Bridge: Well you said you would love me, but you would leave me. You put my heart up on a shelf. You said if you knew back then what you know, you could do bad all by yourself.

So I got down on my knees to ask Him, "Will she ever come back to me?" Lord said, "Son you're too cheap and selfish. Love may not cost, but it sure ain't free!"

CHORUS

Song #5

Nickname: Nita

Perfect

Lyrics: CHORUS: Nothing's ever perfect. Nothing ever is. It's not like the movies. Nothing ever is. Nothing's ever perfect; no, no, nothing ever is.

So I guess we broke up...so what. I don't even care anymore. I just don't. I guess I'm meant to be numb; without all feeling...sick and tired of crying eventhough it's healing, and

CHORUS

So I'll carry this pain...give me something to write about. Sometimes I feel so drained, but then I laugh out loud. I really don't have problems that I don't make. You see I'm real creative when my heart's at stake, and

CHORUS

BRIDGE: Where's my happily ever after? In the movies, that's all that matters...but what about sad endings? People usually don't like those things, but

Nickname: Dezzy

Confused

Lyrics: Verse1: Pain hurts, it makes you feel down.
alot of people walk around with their face into a frown.
Abuse is power for those who walk and talk as though they wear a crown
Confusion go with the two, people get confused about who loves who.
Confusion is a mixture of these things, there is alot of confusion in this song I sing.

Chorus1: Confusion is Pain
Pain is abuse
Even though they fit together like blacks and blues.
You shouldnt do them to people who loves you.

Verse2: Hitting and yelling can hurt everyone
Even though you don't mean to do it to the young ones.
Simply cursing at your friends
Is a type of abuse we can't stand

Chorus2: Confusion is Pain
Pain is abuse
Even though they fit together like blacks and blues.
You shouldnt do them to people who loves you.

Sorrow Will Turn to Joy

Lyrics: Heavy metal cross dangles from your neck,
Fearful of the ones to whom you show respect,
Never backing down, you can’t seem to quit,
Won’t stop scratching, where the fleas have bit,
It starts in you veins and moves to your heart,
The feeling spreads to every body part.
So you stand up and ask to leave,
Ti! ghtening your lungs, you can’t breathe…

(The walls shake and the heavens open up, There’s flesh in your hands and blood in your cup…Death and defiance swimming in your streams, Your aspirations drowning in your dreams…Confronting the cold staircases you climb, There’s nothing more worthy or sublime… )

Heavy metal music pulses from your speaker,
Drowning out the sounds that make you weaker,
So you turn it up, and you wish the world deaf,
Screaming out loud all of your regrets,
You tie up your thoughts and put them aside,
This mental image will mess up your pride,
So you stand up and ask to leave,
But there is one more thing you can achieve:

(chorus)

He’s waiting in the garden,
You’re sharpening your sword,
It was I who,
Crucified the Lord.

(chorus)

Try as I might,
To break the winds,
I can’t take flight,
But I won’t give in

(chorus)

Hell Was Cold

Lyrics: Verse 1,
He thought she would honor her ring
She'd keep on circling summer and spring.
Even if her tears were never dried
she'd keep her vows till the day she died.

Chorus;
Till hell froze over she would stay
till he memories returned to yesterday.
Till her heart told her head to run the show.!
It'd be a cold day in hell before she'd go.

Verse 2;

No matter how many time he put her down
She'd stand on her word she'd be honor bound.
She would keep that bargan she had made.
But that was before that final day.

Verse 3;
while driving through town she saw his car,
The motel sign said The Flaming Star.
She waited there until they showed.
Then eyes of winter touched his face and hell was cold.

Repeat Chorus;
Repeat 3rd verse;
End; speak.. Yes eyes of winter touched his face and hell was cold.
(C)1998

I Walk Alone

Lyrics: Walk alone,
I walk alone.
With my bag on my back,
With my money in my pocket,
With my tears in my eyes,
With my--- heart locket.
I walk alone,
I walk alone
I walk----- alone.
I had to much homework,
I had to much stress.
I didn't have time to do this all at once.
And i got sharpy on my new dress! .
Walk alone,
I walk alone,
With my bag on my back,
With my money in my pocket
with my tears in my eyes
With my heart locket
Walk alone
I walk alone
I walk alone with the tears of my heart
all my friends were ignoring me
The----- Day my dad died
My dog ate my homework
My brother got sick
and all the time
people gave me looks
I walk---- alone
I walk alone
walk alone
I walk alone
with my bag on my back
with my money in my pocket
with my tears in my eyes
with my heart locket
I walk---- alone
I---- walk----alone----
I walk alone

My first Match

Lyrics: Swing Dude Swing
Cause you don't want to be
the one in the ring
with a fat lip and a black eye
I said I was gonna
make you a champion

Left hook, Right hook uppercut
ding ding
go to your corner of the ring

My head's pounding
the noises are drownin! g out
I'm going down
Everything going round and round
everythings in slow mo
oh, no!

LOST LOVE

Lyrics: Lost Love
Vicki gilbert
Lost Love
It's so tough
It makes me cry
because it ended with a lie

I was just so hard
to let go
But you have to understand
we had a couple rows

I thought it would work
It was supposed to work
But it broke my heart
You thought you were so smart
wh! en you broke my heart

I was just so hard
to let go
But you have to understand
we had a couple rows

I want to keep it working
I want to keep it going
I want to stay with you
but you broke my heart to many times

I was just so hard
to let go
But you have to understand
we had a couple rows

Baby
I've got to say good bye
I don't want to
but, Good bye
