"Streams in the Desert"
February 10th
"Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves." (Romans 12:19)
THERE are seasons when to be STILL demands immeasurably higher strength than to act. Composure is often the highest result of power. To the vilest and most deadly charges Jesus responded with deep, unbroken silence, such as excited the wonder
of the judge and the spectators. To the grossest insults, the most violent ill-treatment and mockery that might well bring
indignation to the feeblest heart, He responded with voiceless complacent calmness. Those who are unjustly accused, and
causelessly ill-treated know what tremendous strength is necessary to keep silence to God.
"Men may misjudge thy aim,
Think they have cause to blame,
Say, thou art wrong;
Keep on thy quiet way,
Christ is the Judge, not they,
Fear not, be strong."
St. Paul said, "None of these things move me."
He did not say, none of these things HURT me. It is one thing to be hurt, and quite another to be moved. St. Paul
had a very tender heart. We do not read of any apostle who cried as St. Paul did. It takes a strong man to cry. Jesus
wept, and He was the manliest Man that ever lived. So it does not say, none of these things hurt me. But the apostle had
determined not to move from what he believed was right. He did not count as we are apt to count; he did not care for
ease; he did not care for this mortal life. He cared for only one thing, and that was to be loyal to Christ, to have His smile.
To St. Paul, more than to any other man, His work was wages, His smile as Heaven. ---Margaret Bottome.

Colossians Chapter Two
1 FOR I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for them at Laodicea, and for as many as have
not seen my face in the flesh;
2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of
understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.
5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the
stedfastness of your faith in Christ.
6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the rudiments of the world, and not
after Christ.
9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:
11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of sins
of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God,
who hath raised him from the dead.
13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him,
having forgiven you all trespasses;
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out
of the way, nailing it to his cross;
15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon,
or of the sabbath days:
17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into
those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered,
and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world,
are ye subject to ordinances,
21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body;
not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.

ROLE MODEL - Writing's On The Wall (live on Austin City Limits)
ROLE MODEL - Writing's On The Wall
Dad’s on the phone and he’s lecturing me
‘Bout a girl that he met back when he was nineteen
It’s never gonna work cause the puzzle won’t piece
Head out the window
Sweat on the pillow
It's been keeping me up at night
Guess this is what love feels like all right
Seems like your shoulder
Keeps getting colder
But babe I was raised in the cold
Wish I could do what I'm told
Oh, now
Dad’s on the phone and he’s lecturing me
‘Bout a girl that he met back when he was nineteen
It’s never gonna work cause the puzzle won’t piece
Son of a gun but I know that he’s right
Cause the girl that I loved never treated me nice
Writing’s on the wall I pretend I can’t read
You’re forgetting me
Losing my patience
Confusing the waitress
And asking her way too much
Like why am I still in love?
With somebody who leaves me
Way too easy
She said honey you’ll be alright
But she gets paid to be nice
Oh hell
Dad’s on the phone and he’s lecturing me
‘Bout a girl that he met back when he was nineteen
It’s never gonna work cause the puzzle won’t piece
Son of a gun but I know that he’s right
Cause the girl that I loved never treated me nice
Writing’s on the wall I pretend I can’t read
You’re forgetting me
Ooh you’re forgetting me
Ooh you’re forgetting me
Dad’s on the phone and he’s lecturing me
‘Bout a girl that he met back when he was nineteen
It’s never gonna work cause the puzzle won’t piece
Ooh you’re forgetting me
Son of a gun but I know that he’s right
Cause the girl that I loved never treated me nice
Writing’s on the wall I pretend I can’t read
You’re forgetting me

For years, people have asked me the same question:
"Why did you leave the music industry?"
After years of staying quiet, I'm finally telling the full story.......
Fivefold - Till Death (Live at Delmar Hall 3/25/2017)
Looking back upon the path and I
I can't believe my eyes
The boy that I was and the man that I've become
Breaking through some memory
I still recall the scene
From across the room like something right out of a dream
And now I sit here trying to find the
Words to show you my love
But they don't come, they just stay locked up in my head
So I will vow until the day
This body fades away
To hold you high and
I'll sing
When the winter comes
I'll scream your name
Don't be afraid of what's beneath
When the reaper calls
I'll hold you tight and I'll scream
"Don't you take her away from me
Don't you take her away"
I lived my life a vagabond
The path that I was on (the path that I was on)
Better to leave than leaving broken in the end
But like a moth into the flame
Your fire burned away (your fire burned away)
All of the fear that I held deep inside my heart
And though I lack in every way
You still decided to stay (you still decided to stay)
Dared to look inside and see me for who I am
So I will vow until the day
This body fades away
To hold you high and
I'll sing
When the winter comes
I'll scream your name
Don't be afraid of what's beneath
When the reaper calls
I'll hold you tight and I'll scream
"Don't you take her away from me
Don't you take her away"
And I'll see the face of my desire
Don't let it burn away
A small spark that grew into a fire
Don't let it burn away
When the winter comes
I'll scream your name
Don't be afraid of what's beneath
When the reaper calls
I'll hold you tight and I'll scream
"Don't you take her away from me
Don't you take her away"
And I'll see the face of my desire
Don't let it burn away
A small spark that grew into a fire
Don't let it burn away
Away
The Killers - My Own Soul's Warning
The Killers - My Own Soul's Warning
I tried going against my own soul’s warning
But in the end, something just didn’t feel right
Oh I tried diving even though the sky was storming
And I just wanted to get back to where you are
If you could see through the banner of the sun
Into eternity’s eyes
Like a vision reaching down to you
Would you turn away?
What if it knew you by your name?
What kind of words would cut
Through the clutter of the whirlwinds of these days?
I tried going against my own soul’s warning
But in the end, something just didn’t feel right
Oh I tried diving, even though the sky was storming
Thunderheads were forming
But man I thought I could fly
And when I hit the ground
It made a messed up sound
And it kept on rattling through my days
And cutting up my nights
Like a g--damned knife
And it got me thinking, no matter how far
I just wanted to get back to where you are
I tried going against my own soul’s warning
But in the end, something just didn’t feel right
Oh I tried running from the memory and the mourning
But the penalty kept on pouring
And now I think I know why
Cause when I hit the ground
It made a messed up sound
And it kept on rattling through my days
And cutting up my nights
Like a g--damned knife
And it got me thinking, no matter how far
I just wanted to get back to where you are

Well I know just what you need
I might just have the thing
I know what you'd pay to see
[Chorus]
Put me out of my misery
I'd do it for you, would you do it for me
We will always be busy making misery

We could build a factory and make misery
We'll create the cure; we made the disease

Did you satisfy your greed, get what you need
Was it only envy, so empty

Djo - Basic Being Basic
[Verse 1]
Get food, barely eat
Every bite just kept me glued to my seat
I worried, even cried
How'd it feel to take the light from my life?
Bad habit, even worse
Fifty-fifty, I’m a sucker for looks
Asked for it, here it is
A quick example 'cause you wanted the hits
[Chorus]
I think you're scared of being basic
That’s ironic 'cause it's reading like you're even more basic
It's not funny, it's so funny
'Cause you're basic
Just looking hot and keeping monotone and understated nothingness
Won’t change it
(Good luck with that, good luck with what?)
It’s not funny, but it's so funny
[Verse 2]
I don’t want your money, I don't care for fame
I don't wanna live a life where that's my big exchange
I want simple pleasures, friends who have my back
Everyone has secrets, but not everyone can fool a man like that
It sent me reeling, still not the same
It’s like my capacity to love and give has changed
I guess I'll thank you and spite your name again
The past's the past, and I'll outlast the hate to find real love that's not pretend
[Chorus]
How basic (Sell me on it)
Shuffle numbers, pointing fingers, ditching chats in different apps
That's basic (Haha)
It's not funny, it's so funny
That's just basic being basic (Basically)
You said he looked just like a girl, so you like girls
I guess I'll take it
Yeah, that's funny, you're so funny (Ha-ha-ha-ha)
[Bridge]
Change your body, change your face, curl your hair then make it straight
Take a picture of your plate, Tarantino movie taste
Rah-rah, cheugy-phobe, Vera Bradley's back in Vogue
It's a flash photograph
[Outro]
What an empty epitaph that is (That's basic)
What an empty epitaph that is (That's basic)
What an empty epitaph (That's just basic being basic)
Yeah, my tight five might get a laugh as is
If that's funny, I'm not funny
Switchfoot - Love Alone is Worth the Fight [K-LOVE] (subtitulado español) [History Maker]
Switchfoot - Love Alone is Worth the Fight
[Verse 1]
I'm trying to find where my place is
I'm looking for my own oasis
So close I can taste this
The fear that love alone erases
So I'm back to the basics
I figure it's time I face this
Time to take my own advice
Love alone is worth the fight
[Verse 2]
And I never thought it'd come to this
But it seems like I'm finally feeling numb to this
The funny thing bout a name is
You forget what the reason you were playing the game is
And it's all an illusion
A 21st century institution
So I'm heading down the open road unknown
[Pre-Chorus]
And we find what we're made of
Through the open door
Is it fear you're afraid of?
What are you waiting for?
[Chorus]
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
[Verse 3]
We're only here for a season
I'm looking for the rhyme and reason
Why you're born why you're leaving
What you fear and what you believe in
Why you're living and breathing
Why you're fighting it and getting it even
Let's go headed down the open road unknown
[Pre-Chorus]
And we find what we're made of
Through the open door
Is it fear you're afraid of?
What are you waiting for?
[Chorus]
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
[Bridge]
Here we are here we go
Where the road is our own
Feel it calling you home
Here we are here we go
[Chorus]
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight
Love alone is worth the fight

James Morrison - Once When I Was Little
I was the one,
Who would always
Jump in first
Didn't think twice
To look behind
Got such a good feeling,
Just from playing
In the dirt
Once,
When I was little
We could build a rocket,
Fly to the moon
Leave Tuesday morning,
And be back for noon
There wasn't nothing,
Nothing that we couldn't do
Once, when I was little umm
Once, when I was little
Yeah I could dream more then
Yeah I believed more then
That the world
Could only get better
Yeah I was free more then
I could pretend more then
That this life could
Only show me good times
Once, when I was little
Umm ohh lalala
There was a time
When I trusted everyone
Yes I did
There was no place
That I would not go oh no
Spend a day on the hillside
Next to the holly mo
Oh once, when I was little
Yea once, when I, I was little
Yeah I could dream more then
Yeah I believe more then
That this world
Could only get better
Yeah I was free more then
I could pretend more then
That this life could
Only show me good times
Once, when I was little
Used to feel so strong
Even when they tell me,
Tell me I was wrong
That I can't live
In a magic world
Cause it's time
For me to grow up
That I got to be
Like the rest of them
When I know
There acting up ohh
I could believe more
Then yes I could
I could pretend more then
That this life could
Only get better
I could believe more
Then yes I could
I could pretend more then
That this world could
Only show me good times
Once, when I was little
When I was little
So here comes the next one,
The next in line
Stay as young you can,
For the longest time
Cause those days flew by
Like a breeze
Just passing through
Once, when I was little
The Broken View - Feel Something (acoustic)
The Broken View - Feel Something
I find myself wrapped up in this
I covet every lie
Cause I want to feel something
I try and enforce some logic
For all these tears I've cried
But I just feel nothing
Oh, I need to let go
Don't wait up for me at all
I not coming back cause I
I wanna feel something
I'll gather my indifference
And I will bide my time
Until I feel something
Oh, I need to let go
Before I lose
With weakened and weary eyes
We can now sleep at night
You never showed but I was there
To let you know that I don't care
But fearful and fevered I'll
Wake from this dream tonight
You never showed but I was there
To let you know that I don't care
That I don't care
I want to feel something
With weakened and weary eyes
We can now sleep at night
You never showed but I was there
To let you know that I don't care
But fearful and fevered I'll
Wake from this dream tonight
You never showed but I was there
To let you know that I don't care
I want to feel something

English translation after official lyrics
Sleutels vast, de deurknop heb ik in mijn hand
Maar ik twijfel of ik nog wel echt naar binnen kan
Jouw iedere beweging lijkt bij mij vandaan
Ik heb je hart zo lang niet open meer zien staan
Wil je weten hoe het danst zonder mij?
Misschien heb je meer balans zonder mij
Als het moet zet ik een stapje opzij
Als het beter
Als dat beter is
Heeft het leven dan meer glans zonder mij
Krijgt de liefde weer een kans zonder mij
Als dat echt zo is dan laat ik je vrij
Als het beter
Als dat beter is
Wil niet zeggen dat ik jou niet mis
De voordeur die gaat open en ik sla weer dicht
Al staat wat ik wil zeggen wel op mijn gezicht
Ik kan niet met je praten dus ik hou me stil
Maar het voelt of je voor mij niet vechten wil
Wil je weten hoe het danst zonder mij?
Misschien heb je meer balans zonder mij
Als het moet zet ik een stapje opzij
Als dat beter
Als dat beter is
Heeft het leven dan meer glans zonder mij
Krijgt de liefde weer een kans zonder mij
Als dat echt zo is dan laat ik je vrij
Als het beter
Als dat beter is
Wil niet zeggen dat ik jou niet mis
Ga maar kijken hoe het danst
Ga maar kijken hoe het danst
Het is niet dat ik niet wil
Maar heel
de weg lijk ik vergeten
Zou niet weten
welke richting
Welke weg nog leidt naar jou
Sleutels vast, de deurknop heb ik in mijn hand
Ik leer vast wel hoe het danst zonder jou
Ook al mis ik de balans zonder jou
Oh, ik hoop dat ik het kan zonder jou
Als het beter
Als dat beter is
Ga maar kijken hoe het danst zonder mij
Geef de liefde weer een kans zonder mij
Als het moet zet ik een stapje opzij
Als het beter
Als het beter is
Ga maar kijken hoe het danst
Ga maar kijken hoe het danst
Wil je weten hoe het danst zonder mij
Misschien heb je meer balans zonder mij
Als het moet zet ik een stapje opzij
Als het beter
Als dat beter is
Wil niet zeggen dat ik jou niet mis
Keys in hand, I’m holding the doorknob
But I hesitate—can I really still go inside?
Every move you make seems to pull you away from me
It’s been so long since I’ve seen your heart open up
Do you want to know how it dances without me?
Maybe you’ll find more balance without me
If need be, I’ll step aside
If it’s better
If that’s better
Will life have more sparkle without me?
Will love get another chance without me?
If that’s really the case, then I’ll set you free
If it’s better
If that’s better
That doesn’t mean I don’t miss you
The front door opens, and I close it again
Even though what I want to say is written on my face
I can’t talk to you, so I stay silent
But it feels like you don’t want to fight for me
Do you want to know how it dances without me? Maybe you’ll find more balance without me
If need be, I’ll step aside
If that’s better
If that’s better
Will life shine brighter without me?
Will love get another chance without me?
If that’s really the case, then I’ll set you free
If that’s better
If that’s better
That doesn’t mean I don’t miss you
Go and see how it dances
Go and see how it dances
It’s not that I don’t want to
But I seem to have forgotten
The whole way there
I wouldn’t know
Which direction
Which path still leads to you
Keys in hand, I’m holding the doorknob
I’m sure I’ll learn how to dance without you
Even though I miss the balance without you
Oh, I hope I can manage without you
If that’s better
If that’s better
Go and see how it dances without me
Give love another chance without me
If need be, I’ll step aside
If that’s better
If that’s better
Go and see how it dances
Go and see how it dances
Do you want to know how it dances without me?
Maybe you’ll find more balance without me
If need be, I’ll step aside
If that’s better
If that’s better
That doesn’t mean I don’t miss you

Nothing But Thieves - Overcome
I don't wanna fight
My money's in a bag in the back for you
The future's overdue
Yeah I know that
Turn the engine on
Our song blaring out a Dead radio
Singing 'I Need To Know'
No turning back
I've been thinkin' babe, maybe you're right
When you said the pain weathers in time
We're just waiting for a change to follow
We don't always get all that we want
Redefine the pain to something more
And we shall overcome as we've done before
Scrolling through a life
I barely recognised from a hotel room
Took in the lonely view
Got unattached
Bringer of the calm
Your arms wrapped around when the fever took
Thought I was gone for good
You brought me back
I've been thinkin' babe, maybe you're right
When you said the pain weathers in time
We're just waiting for a change to follow
We don't always get all that we want
Redefine the pain to something more
And we shall overcome as we've done before
It's when we lean in, into the moment
It's when we're reaching through the divide
It's when we begin feeling the open
It's when the stranger's fallen behind
When we shake off the darkness
And harness the light
I've been thinkin' babe, maybe you're right
When you said the pain weathers in time
We're just waiting for a change to follow
We don't always get all that we want
Redefine the pain to something more
And we shall overcome as we've done before
And we shall overcome as we've done before
And we shall overcome as we've done before
Dido - Here With Me
I didn't hear you leave
I wonder how am I still here
And I don't want to move a thing
It might change my memory
Oh I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide
I won't go
I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
I won't leave
I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me
I don't want to call my friends
They might wake me from this dream
And I can't leave this bed
Risk forgetting all that's been
Oh I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide
I won't go
I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
I won't leave
I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me
Linkin Park - Battle Symphony
Linkin Park - Battle Symphony
I got a long way to go
And a long memory
I been searching for an answer
Always just out of reach
Blood on the floor
Sirens repeat
I been searching for the courage
To face my enemies
When they turn down the lights
I hear my battle symphony
All the world in front of me
If my armor breaks
I’ll fuse it back together
Battle symphony
Please just don’t give up on me
And my eyes are wide awake
For my battle symphony
They say that I don’t belong
Say that I should retreat
That I’m marching to the rhythm
Of a lonesome defeat
But the sound of your voice
Puts the pain in reverse
No surrender, no illusions
And for better or worse
When they turn down the lights
I hear my battle symphony
All the world in front of me
If my armor breaks
I’ll fuse it back together
Battle symphony
Please just don’t give up on me
And my eyes are wide awake
If I fall, get knocked down
Pick myself up off the ground
When they turn down the lights
I hear my battle symphony
All the world in front of me
If my armor breaks
I’ll fuse it back together
Battle symphony
Please just don’t give up on me
And my eyes are wide awake
For my battle symphony

Anthony Vincent feat. Matthew Heafy - Welcome the End
If I should die you’ll know me
Welcome the end before me
The hands can hold no time
And the earth drinks in the wine
Become the pain but not the lie
A deadly disguise
Stone, void
And the joyful emptiness draws near
Atoned for every year
A debt paid with tears
And when the fire came It burned out my insides
Acceptance
This temple now is mine
If we’re to take the call
Given the freedom to fight and fall
If I should die you’ll know me
Welcome the end before me
A flicker in the void
Though still unsure
To give into doubt is a hell I can’t endure
No fire no cure
And in the winter wind
A voice for the the victims
Died out
The restless betray them
If we’re to take the call
Given the freedom to fight and fall
If I should die you’ll know me
Welcome the end before me
One more road, another wall
All on the way to lose it all
If I should die you’ll know me
Welcome the end before me
Welcome the end before me
The end before me
Giving way to the rays of light
My heart split open
Desires fade away
Like the fog of the morning
And in the flames we claim another existence
Survival
We no longer follow
If we’re to take the call
Given the freedom to fight and fall
If I should die you’ll know me
Welcome the end before me
One more road, another wall
All on the way to lose it all
If I should die you’ll know me
Welcome the end before me

Nothing But Thieves - Stray Dogs
The sky's lighter today
And I smell you in my clothes
'Cause I bite down when you
Come find yourself in the asphalt
I've been working on myself
Cost of living's on the rise
One more trip around the sun
Turn my face into the light
Summer dust still in my veins
It keeps me warm at night
It keeps me warm at night
Dreaming like a pack of stray
Dreaming like a pack of stray dogs
Oooh
Got hooked up on the pheromone
Stray dogs
Oooh
Last night, Los Angeles
Where every story's someone else's
And we're chasing our own tails
Put our heads down where we lay
Come and hang around in spring
Got a shadow to erase
Got a shadow to erase
Dreaming like a pack of stray dogs
Oooh
Got hooked up on the pheromone
Oooh
Stray dogs
Don't it make you feel
Don't it make you feel
Alive?
The sky's lighter today
And I smell you in my clothes
Concrete

Got hooked up on the pheromone
Backbeat

Pack of

Oooh
Got hooked up on the pheromone

Alive?
Don't it make you feel

Don't it make you feel

Wake up (wake up)
Grab a brush and put a little make-up
Hide the scars to fade away the shake-up (hide the scars to fade away the-)
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go create another fable, you wanted to
Grab a brush and put a little make-up, you wanted to
Hide the scars to fade away the shake-up, you wanted to
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table? You wanted to
I don't think you trust
In my self-righteous suicide
I cry when angels deserve to die

Colossians Chapter One
1 PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother,
2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse: Grace be unto you,
and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,
4 Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints,
5 For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word
of the truth of the gospel;
6 Which is come unto you, as it is in all the world; and bringeth forth fruit, as it doth also in you,
since the day ye heard of it, and knew the grace of God in truth:
7 As ye also learned of Epaphras our dear fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;
8 Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit.
9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire
that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding:
10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work,
and increasing in the knowledge of God;
11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience
and longsuffering with joyfulness;
12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the
inheritance of the saints in light:
13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the
kingdom of his dear Son:
14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible
and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers:
all things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the
dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
19 For it pleased the Father that in him, should all fulness dwell;
20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto
himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works,
yet now hath he reconciled
22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable
and unreproveable in his sight:
23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel,
which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven;
whereof I Paul am made a minister;
24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ
in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:
25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you,
to fulfil the word of God;
26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles;
which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present
every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
29 Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily.

System Of A Down - Lost in Hollywood
System Of A Down - Lost in Hollywood
I'll wait here
You're crazy
Those vicious streets are filled with strays
You should have never gone to Hollywood
They find you
Two-time you
Say you're the best they've ever seen
You should have never trusted Hollywood
I wrote you
And told you
You were the biggest fish out here
You should have never gone to Hollywood
They take you
And make you
They look at you in disgusting ways
You should have never trusted Hollywood
I was standing on the wall
Feeling ten feet tall
All you maggots smoking fags on Santa Monica Boulevard
This is my front page
This is my new age
All you bitches put your hands in the air
And wave them like you just don't care
All you maggots smoking fags out there on Sunset Boulevard
All you bitches put your hands in the air
And wave them like you just don't care
Phony people come to pray
Look at all of them beg to stay
Phony people come to pray
The lines in the letter said, "We have gone to Hackensack"
Look at all of them beg to stay
Phony people come to pray
All you maggots smoking fags on Santa Monica Boulevard
All you maggots smoking fags out there on Sunset Boulevard
All you maggots smoking fags out there on Hollywood Boulevard
You should have never trusted Hollywood
You should have never gone to Hollywood
All you bitches put your hands in the air
And wave them like you just don't care
You should have never trusted Hollywood
In Color - Headlights
[Verse 1]
Yeah, you're driving with your headlights off
It's automatic, yeah, you've made some mistakes
But I don't really care at all, no
Just keep on driving 'til you make it to my place
[Chorus]
You're crying in the shower, wiping makeup off your face
It's obvious, can't promise you it's gonna be okay
You know you look so pretty when you say I'm not the one
Just turn around, keep driving with your headlights off
[Verse 2]
Now, when he looks at you, do you look away?
Now, when he's holding you and it's not the same way that I do
Same way that I do, now that we're done
Just keep on driving 'til you make it to my place
[Chorus]
You're crying in the shower, wiping makeup off your face
It's obvious, can't promise you it's gonna be okay
You know you look so pretty when you say I'm not the one
Just turn around, keep driving with your headlights off
Kensington - Sorry (live at Pinkpop 2017)
Sorry for the road that I won't take
For the words that I won't say
For the love that I won't give
Sorry for the heart that I won't show
For the lengths that I won't go
For the life that you won't live
Sorry that I opened up my arms
You would never reach in time
Before they closed again
You will forget
And I won't remember it
When all I ever did was race in circles
You will forget
And all there's left will be
A faded memory
A dream you woke up from
Sorry for the oath that I won't take
For the vows that I will break
For the role that I won't play
Sorry that I'm raising up my walls
And whenever you reached over
You are thrown back to the start
You will forget
And I won't remember it
When all I ever did was race in circles
You will forget
And all there's left will be
A faded memory
A dream you woke up from
The color I would bring to ending up again
Opening darkness I wanted to hold you back from
The colour I would bring to ending up again
Opening darkness I wanted to hold you back
You will forget
And I won't remember it
When all I ever did was race in circles
You will forget
And all there's left will be
A faded memory
A dream you woke up from

[Verse 1]
Don't tell me what to think
'Cause I don't care this time
Don't tell me what to believe
'Cause you won't be there
To catch me when I fall
But you'll need me when I'm not here at all
Miss me when I'm gone again, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm going down in flames
I'm falling into this again, yeah
I'm going down in flames
I'm falling into this again, oh no
[Verse 2]
Don't tell me how life is
'Cause I don't really wanna know
Don't tell me how this game ends
'Cause we'll just see how it goes
Catch me when I fall
Or you'll need me when I'm not here at all
Miss me when I'm gone again, yeah
