... wow. ♥

deteriorate - demon hunter

Time has had it's way with me
My broken, tired hands can't build a thing
The wires that have held me still
Embedded now in flesh, define my will
The idle of my days has won
The empty I have fed has made me numb
Despite what you will find in me
The failures of my past still swell beneath

(Prechorus)
I need a heart that carries on through the pain
When the walls start collapsing again
Give me a soul that never ceases to follow
Despite the infection within

(chorus)
Our careless feet leaving trails
Never minding the fragile dirt we all end in(x2)

This is where i find my fall
The cares that held me life don't work at all
And every step away from here
Is closer to the plague I hold so dear

(Prechorus)

(Chorus)

Awaiting my end
Breathing in the day that finds me new
Redemption begins
Bleeding out the flaws in place of you(x2)

(Chorus)

i'm learning.

Your Life Path Number is 9

Your purpose in life is to make the world better You are very socially conscious and a total idealist. You think there are many things wrong with the world, and you want to fix them. You have a big idea of how to world could be, and you'll sacrifice almost anything to work towards this dream. In love, you can easily see the beauty in someone else. And you never cling too tightly. You are capable of great love, but it's hard for you to focus your love on one person or relationship. You have a lot of outward focus, and you tend to blame the world for your failures. You are often disappointed by the realities of life - it's hard for you to accept the shortcomings of the world.

What Is Your Life Path Number?

some days God is my best friend.
and then some days i can't seem to find Him anywhere.

we all look elsewhere..

i'm tired of life.
i'm tired of constant mediocrity, failed expectations, never going deeper than the surface.
i'm tired of never moving forward, of constantly having to turn myself around.
i'm tired of stress, sickness, and pain..
i'm tired of the card house blowing down right when i think i've gotten it right.

i'm just plain tired.

the earth falls asleep - abandon kansas

The earth falls asleep much too early for me
I close my eyes but I can't rest
My body is tired my mind is running
From the past to the east to the west
Trying to find the blame
That you've already taken from me

Can anyone tell me how, how we learn to live with ourselves
I've been forgiven of things only God knows, but I can't forgive myself
After all of my searching I found who I am, and its not what I wanted
But I'm here now and I'm broken, come save me from this hell

I am convinced that the world that we see is a curtain
Behind which vast realms await us
Of uncharted marvels and oceans of mercy inside the Father's eyes
And the mountains are grandstands that sheets of blue sky rest upon
Peeled back with ease by Your hands
To reveal a glory I've never dreamed

I want to pay for the things I've done, the people I've hurt
Get what I deserve, but You won't let me
My hope is in the Unseen
Cause I see no hope in me
