You wait, wanting this world
To let you in
And you stand there
A frozen light
In dark and empty streets
You smile hiding behind
A God-given face
But I know you're so much more
Everything they ignore
Is all that I need to see
You're the only one I ever believed in
The answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel
The end of fear is where we begin
The moment we decided to let love in
I wish
Wishing for you to find your way
And I'll hold on for all you need
That's all we need to say
I'll take my chances while
You take your time with
This game you play
But I can't control your soul
You need to let me know
You leaving or you gonna stay
You're the only one I ever believed in
The answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel
The end of fear is where we begin
The moment we decided to let love in
There's nothing we can do about
The things we have to do without
The only way to feel again
Is let love in
There's nothing we can do about
The things we have to live without
The only way to see again
Is let love in
You're the only one I ever believed in
The answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel
The end of fear is where we begin
The moment we decided to let love in

Goo Goo Dolls - Let Love In
SCOTT STAPP ft. DOROTHY - If These Walls Could Talk
SCOTT STAPP - If These Walls Could Talk
They've seen me pick the bottle up and put the Bible down
They've heard me crying out more times than I can count
They've seen me fall, seen me crawl, seen me stand
They know what I'm not and they know who I am
If these walls could talk
They'd tell the hell and the secrets, the demons I fought
They know just how far I've come
If these walls could talk
They've seen me talking to myself and talking to God
They've seen me at the bottom, praying for the top
They've seen me fall, seen me crawl, seen me stand
They know what I'm not anymore and they know who I am
If these walls could talk
They'd tell the hell and the secrets, the demons I fought
They know just how far I've come
If these walls could talk
Had to live, had to learn, had to burn it all down
I had to get lost to get found
If these walls could talk
If these walls could talk
If these walls could talk
They'd tell the hell and the secrets, the demons I fought
They see just how far I've come
If these walls could talk
If these walls could talk
If these walls could talk
Clutch - Electric Worry
Well you made me weep
And you made me moan
When you caused me to leave, child
My happy home
But someday baby
You ain't gonna worry my life

Take tomorrow's collar
And give em back the glare

Life of a drifter

You can have your riches,
All the gold you saved
Aint room for one thing
In everybody's grave
Bang Bang Bang Bang
Vamanos, Vamanos

Piles of street cred

Everywhere I go
One day baby
You'll worry me no more!

The Happy Fits - Do You See Me?
The Happy Fits - Do You See Me?
I think I love you
I think I love you honey
Do you see me?
Oh do you see me now?
It's been a hard time
Tried to not want you
I dream when I'm awake
Asleep it's all the same
A tragic upset
Self help books up next
I read them in your voice
Oh god I've got no choice
I think I love you
I think I love you honey
Do you see me?
Oh do you see me now?
I think I love you
I think I love you honey
Do you see me
Oh do you see me now?
I don't remember
Just how it hit me
When you said your favorite bands
Or made me a better man (Oh my god she likes ELO)
I see my life now (His life now)
Two parts so clearly
There was time before we met
But who remembers that?
I think I love you
I think I love you honey
Do you see me?
Oh do you see me now?
I think I love you
I think I love you honey
Do you see me?
Oh do you see me now?
Delta Spirit - War Machine
[Chorus]
War machine, you can't break me
You can't have the world I love
[Verse 1]
I lied like the government
Pretended that pain don't exist
They stare down the barrel of a gun
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Well I was so occupied
Compassion I had declined
The first world, it always gets it's way
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Watching the clock just tick
Blockhead rhetoric
The life you've known is surely gone
They watched as their children fell
Stories that dead men tell
The frontless battle rages on
[Chorus x2]
[Outro]
You can't have the world I love
You can't have the world I love
Staind - It's Been Awhile
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile
Since I could call you
And everything I can't remember
As f---ed up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means
And it's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile
Since I can say I love myself as well
And it's been awhile
Since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
And it's been awhile
But all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember
As f---ed up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and fucked things up again
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day!
And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile
Since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile
But I can still remember just the way you taste
And everything I can't remember
As f---ed up as it all may seem to be I know it's me
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
OneRepublic - I Lived
Hope when you take that jump
You don't fear the fall
Hope when the water rises
You built a wall
Hope when the crowd screams out
It's screaming your name
Hope if everybody runs
You choose to stay
Hope that you fall in love
And it hurts so bad
The only way you can know
You give it all you have
And I hope that you don't suffer
But take the pain
Hope when the moment comes you'll say
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived
Hope that you spend your days
But they all add up
And when that sun goes down
Hope you raise your cup
Oh, oh
I wish that I could witness
All your joy
And all your pain
But until my moment comes, I'll say
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh, whoa-oh-oh
(With every broken bone)
I swear I lived
(With every broken bone)
I swear I
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah with every broken bone
I swear I lived
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
I swear I lived
Oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

John Chapter Eight
1 JESUS went unto the mount of Olives.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down,
and taught them.
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her
in the midst,
4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his
finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among
you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest,
even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those
thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk
in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.
14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence
I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
19 Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had
known me, ye should have known my Father also.
20 These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him;
for his hour was not yet come.
21 Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go,
ye cannot come.
22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, whither I go, ye cannot come.
23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you
from the beginning.
26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those
things which I have heard of him.
27 They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he,
and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall
be made free?
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's
children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God;
neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning,
and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own:
for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? and if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.
50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.
52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and
thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say,
that he is your God.
55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you:
but I know him, and keep his saying.
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Jesus said unto the, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through
the midst of them, and so passed by.
John Chapter Eight - KJV
Amos Chapter Five
1 HEAR ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.
2 The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to
raise her up.
3 For thus saith the Lord GOD; The city that went out by a thousand shall leave an hundred, and that
which went forth by an hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.
4 For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
5 But seek not Beth-el, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into
captivity, and Beth-el shall come to nought.
6 Seek the LORD, and ye shall live; lest he break out like a fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it,
and there be none to quench it in Beth-el.
7 Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
8 Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death in the morning, and maketh
the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the
earth: The LORD is his name:
9 That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.
10 They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
11 Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat:
ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards,
but ye shall not drink wine of them.
12 For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe,
and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.
13 Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time: for it is an evil time.
14 Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you,
as ye have spoken.
15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts
will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
16 Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord, saith thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall
say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are
skilful of lamentation to wailing.
17 And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD.
18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness,
and not light.
19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall,
and a serpent bit him.
20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
21 I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.
22 Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard
the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
23 Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.
24 But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
25 Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
26 But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god,
which ye made to yourselves.
27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.

I miss the taste of a sweeter life
I miss the conversation
I'm searching for a song tonight
I'm changing all of the stations
I like to think that we had it all
We drew a map to a better place
But on that road, I took a fall
Oh, baby, why did you run away?
I was there for you in your darkest times
I was there for you in your darkest night
But I wonder, where were you
When I was at my worst, down on my knees?
And you said you had my back
So I wonder, where were you
When all the roads you took came back to me?
So I'm following the map that leads to you
The map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you
The map that leads to you

Hard to resist temptation
'Cause something strange has come over me

Avalanche City - Keep That Love
Avalanche City - Keep That Love
On your path on the street
Find your way find your feet
Keep that love
It won't last, war and peace
Let your tears fall on the beach
Keep that love
I don't think you'll take him back
I don't think you'll take that chance
Some days it's a task
Keep that love
Keep that love
Keep that love
Keep that love
Spend it all on someone else
You should keep some for yourself
Build that up
Mum and dad are proud as hell
Don't say it but you can tell
Hold that up
Keep that love
Keep that love
Keep that love
Keep that love
I don't think you'll take him back
I don't think you'll take that chance
Some days it's a task
And I know you're scared
Think about something else instead
Not the way he kissed your neck
Keep that love
Keep that love
Keep that love
Keep that love
Citizen Soldier - Strong for Somebody Else
Citizen Soldier - Strong for Somebody Else
I've played out that seems so much in my head
I have to wake up, but I'd rather be dead
Haunted by thoughts of the ones I love most
I picture them living alone with my ghost
Kill the pain and kill the family
Choke the dark down
Just be happy
Talk myself off
Of this ledge I know all too well
My personal hell
I'll bury it, bury it
Weight of the world
I'll carry it, carry it
Pile it all on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Put my pain in a pill
I'll swallow it, swallow it
Too numb to feel
I'm hollow, I'm hollow
I have to hold on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Somebody else
This voice in my head it wants me to choose
Die selfish or live with my head in a noose
does it ever get better, or is this worth the fight
Everyone has a breaking point
guess we'll find mine
Kill the body, not the memory
Wouldn't blame 'em
they'd resent me
Kind of scares me
What it takes to just save myself
My personal hell
I'll bury it, bury it
Weight of the world
I'll carry it, carry it
Pile it all on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Put my pain in a pill
I'll swallow it, swallow it
Too numb to feel
I'm hollow, I'm hollow
I have to hold on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Somebody else
Somebody else
My personal hell
I'll bury it, bury it
Weight of the world
I'll carry it, carry it
Pile it all on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Put my pain in a pill
I'll swallow it, swallow it
Too numb to feel
I'm hollow, I'm hollow
I have to hold on
I've gotta be strong
For somebody, for somebody
Somebody else
For somebody, for somebody
Somebody else
For somebody, for somebody
Somebody else
Roo Panes - Lullaby Love
An avenue once bent in shadow,
In a morning straight and hallow.
You hold high a destination,
You sing to me of sweet revelation.
I feel the quickening in my step,
But I don't even touch the ground.
'Cause when I'm seeing double,
It's your lullaby love that keeps me from trouble,
It's your lullaby love that's keeping me level,
It's your lullaby love that keeps me awake.
When this voice retires from talking,
When these ears are tired of ringing.
When my feet get bored of travelling,
And it looks like it's all unravelling.
When this heart's too old for dreaming,
That's when I hear the angels sing your lullaby.
'Cause when I'm seeing double
It's your lullaby love that keeps me from trouble,
It's your lullaby love that's keeping me level,
It's your lullaby love that keeps me awake.
'Cause when I'm seeing double
It's your lullaby love that keeps me from trouble,
It's your lullaby love that's keeping me level,
It's your lullaby love that keeps me awake.
John Chapter Seven
1 AFTER these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewery, because the Jews sought to kill him.
2 Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.
3 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the
works that thou doest.
4 For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these
things, shew thyself to the world.
5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.
6 Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.
7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.
8 Go ye up to this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast, for my time is not yet full come.
9 When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.
10 But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.
11 Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said,
Nay; but he deceiveth the people.
13 Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.
14 Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?
16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true,
and no unrighteousness is in him.
19 Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
20 The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee?
21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.
22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the
sabbath day circumcise a man.
23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry
at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?
24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?
26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?
27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
28 Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am; and I am not
come of myself, but he that sent me it true, whom ye know not.
29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
30 Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
31 And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles
than these which this man hath done?
32 The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief
priests sent officers to take him.
33 Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me.
34 Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot come.
35 Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the
dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
36 What manner of saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am,
thither ye cannot come?
37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him
come unto me, and drink.
38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall
flow rivers of living water.
39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not
yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.
41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?
42 Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem,
where David was?
43 So there was a division among the people because of him.
44 And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.
45 Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?
46 The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.
47 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived?
48 Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?
49 But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.
50 Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,)
51 Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?
52 They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
53 And every man went unto his own house.
John Chapter Seven - KJV
Amos Chapter Four
1 HEAR this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor,
which crush the needy, which say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.
2 The Lord GOD hath sworn by his holiness, that, lo, the days shall come upon you, that he will take
you away with hooks, and your posterity with the fishhooks.
3 And ye shall go out at the breaches, every cow at that which is before her; and ye shall cast them
into the palace, saith the LORD.
4 Come to Beth-el, and transgress; at Gilgal multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices every
morning, and your tithes after three years:
5 And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven, and proclaim and publish the free offerings: for this
liketh you, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
6 And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places:
yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD.
7 And also I have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: and I
caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece was rained upon,
and the piece whereupon it rained not withered.
8 So two or three cities wandered unto one city, to drink water; but they were not satisfied: ye have ye not
returned unto me, saith the LORD.
9 I have smitten you with blasting and mildew: when your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees
and your olive trees increased, the palmerworrm devoured them: yet have ye not returned unto me,
saith the LORD.
10 I have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men have I slain with the sword,
and have taken away your horses; and I have made the stink of your camps to come up unto your nostrils:
yet have ye not returned unto me saith the LORD.
11 I have overthrown some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a firebrand plucked
out of the burning: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD.
12 Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: and because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God,
O Israel.
13 For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what
is his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth,
The LORD, The God of hosts, is his name.

Ok, Nikki

(Brian Aubert)
Another night alone, a temporary dream
I came in through your window sleepwalking
Standing arm and arm, still so out of reach
Well, there's nowhere left to go
Stay with me, stay with me
(Nikki Monninger)
Footsteps on the floor, your body's just a haze
In a rhythm of our own that's out of phase
Feeling my body swoon to hear you say my name
I've got nowhere left to dream
So I'll just stay awake, stay awake
At last, I'm found
Circle around
Last dance, no sound
Nowhere left to go, stay with me
Nowhere left to go, stay with me
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go (Circle around)
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go (Circle around)
Nowhere to go, nowhere to go (Circle around)
At last, I'm found
Circle around
Last dance, no sound
Nowhere left to go, stay with me
Nowhere left to go, stay with me
Nowhere left to go, stay with me
Nowhere left to go, stay with me
First Corinthians Chapter Sixteen
1 NOW concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
2 Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings
when I come.
3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by your letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.
4 And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.
5 Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.
6 And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.
7 For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit,
8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.
9 For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.
10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.
11 Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.
12 As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come
at this time; but he will come when he shall have a convenient time.
13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.
14 Let all your things be done with charity.
15 I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Acaia, and that they have addicted
themselves to the ministry of the saints,)
16 That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us, and laboureth.
17 I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied.
18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.
20 All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss.
21 The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.
22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.
23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

Banners - Got It In You
Holding back the flood
In this skyscraper town
You gave all that sweat and blood
now you think you’re gonna drown
You can’t tell that you’re bigger
than the sea that you’re sinking in
And you don’t know what you got
but you got it at your fingertips
You got it in you
When the lights go out and leave you standing in the dark No-one ever told you this would be so hard
I know you think your fire is burning out but I still see you shining through
Not everything you hear should sound like the truth Cos nobody elses words can define you
Maybe you don’t see it
but your quicker than the world can spin
You should know what you got
cos you got it at your finger tips
You got it in you
When the lights go out and leave you standing in the dark No-one ever told you this would be so
hard I know you think your fire is burning out but I still see you shining through
You got it in you
Durry - Coming of Age
Another gloomy Monday shows its face. And the instapot coffee’s lost its taste. And the six o'clock train’s always running late. But if I stop now I know I’m never gonna make it. Back to the tragedy, laugh like a comedy, Rogaine society, dial-up lobotomy. Nine to five fantasize about the end of the day, just to wake up and do it all again.
I should have known better than to think that this could change. I should have seen the pattern, how disconnected I became. Climbing that corporate ladder. If you need somebody to take the blame. You can call me a quitter. But I’m calling it a coming of age.
A-ok. I’ll be ok. Ok ok. I’ll be a-ok.
Back to the rat race run in place. I just spin my wheel till my my next lunch break. And hope it gets better with a five cent raise. But I can’t stop until I get paid. I don’t know which is worse, the commute or the hearse. I don’t think that it’s worth it anymore. Sick of living for the paycheck. Blow it on the weekend. I’m giving up and loading up the briefcase.
I should have known better than to think that this could change. I should have seen the pattern, how disconnected I became. Climbing that corporate ladder. If you need somebody to take the blame. You can call me a quitter. But I’m calling it a coming of age.
A-ok. I’ll be ok. Ok ok. I’ll be a-ok.
You don’t know what you don’t know. Until you notice nobody knows what they’re doing. It’s all just a long shot con to get what you want. You make the rules and you get to break them. You set the goal post. Write the score board. You get to choose when you get to go home. You walk the tightrope. You let the cliff go. You get to choose if you want to just go home.
I should have known better than to think that this could change. I should have seen the pattern, how disconnected I became. Climbing that corporate ladder. If you need somebody to take the blame. You can call me a quitter. But I’m calling it a coming of age.
You don’t know what you don’t know. Until you notice nobody knows what they’re doing. It’s all just a long shot con to get what you want. You make the rules and you get to break them.
