Proverbs Chapter 13



1    A WISE son heareth his father's instruction:  but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

2    A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth:  but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence.

3    He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life:  but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

4    The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing:  but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

5    A righteous man hateth lying:  but a wicked man is loathsome, and cometh to shame.

6    Righteousness keepeth him that is upright in the way:  but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

7    There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing:  there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.

8    The ransom of a man's life are his riches:  but the poor heareth not rebuke.

9    The light of the righteous rejoiceth:  but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.

10    Only by pride cometh contention:  but with the well advised is wisdom.

11    Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished:  but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.

12    Hope deferred maketh the heart sick:  but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

13    Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed:  but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.

14    The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

15    Good understanding giveth favour:  but the way of transgressors is hard.

16    Every prudent man dealeth with knowledge:  but a fool layeth open his folly.

17    A wicked messenger falleth into mischief:  but a faithful ambassador is health.

18    Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction:  but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.

19    The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul:  but it is abomination to fools to depart from evil.

20    He that walketh with wise men shall be wise:  but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

21    Evil pursueth sinners:  but to the righteous good shall be repayed.

22    A good man leaveth an inheritance to his childrens' children:  and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

23    Much food is in the tillage of the poor:  but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment.

24    He that spareth his rod hateth his son:  but he that loveth him chaseneth him betimes.

25    The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul:  but the belly of the wicked shall want.

Kodaline - High Hopes

 Kodaline - High Hopes

 [Verse 1]
Broken bottles in the hotel lobby
Seems to me like I'm just scared of never feelin' it again
I know it's crazy to believe in silly things
But it's not that easy

[Verse 2]
I remember it now, it takes me back to when it all first started
But I only got myself to blame for it and I accept it now
It's time to let it go, go out and start again
But It's not that easy

[Chorus]
But I've got high hopes
It takes me back to when we started
High hopes
When you let it go, go out and start again
High hopes
When it all comes to an end
But the world keeps spinning around

[Verse 3]
And in my dreams I meet the ghosts of all the people who've come and gone
Memories, they seem to show up so quick but they leave you far too soon
Naive, I was just staring at the barrel of a gun
I do believe it

[Chorus]
Yeah, but I've got high hopes
It takes me back to when we started
High hopes
When you let it go, go out and start again
High hopes
Oh, when it all comes to an end
The world keeps spinning
Yeah, the world keeps spinning
Around

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Ohh, high hopes
It takes me back to when we started
High hopes
When you let it go, go out and start again
High hopes
Ohhh-ohhh
Yeah, but the world keeps spinning, uhh
Yeah, this world keeps spinning

[Outro]
How this world keeps spinning around?

Ephesians Chapter Six

 1    CHILDREN, obey your parents in the Lord:  for this is right.

2    Honour thy father and mother;  which is the first commandment with promise;

3    That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.

4    And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath:  but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

5    Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, and fear and trembling,
     in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ:

6    Not with eyeservice, as menpleasers:  but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart;

7    With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men:

8    Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receive of the Lord, whether he be bond or free.

9    And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening:  knowing that your Master also is in heaven;
    neither is there respect of persons with him.

10    Finally,  my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11    Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12    For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness
    of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13    Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14    Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness:

15    And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16    Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17    And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18    Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication
    for all saints.

19    And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

20    For which I am an ambassador in bonds:  that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

21    But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord,
    shall make known to you all things.

22    Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.

23    Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

24    Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity.  Amen.

Psalm Eleven -- KJV and Scottish Metrical Psalter


1    IN the LORD put I my trust:  how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?

2    For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot
    at the upright in heart.

3    If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

4    The LORD is in his holy temple, the LORD'S throne is in heaven:  his eyes behold, his eyelids try,
    the children of men.

5    The LORD trieth the righteous:  but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.

6    Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest:  this shall be the
    portion of their cup.

7    For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness;  his countenance doth behold the upright.

Psalm Eleven - KJV


Psalm 11
To the chief Musician,
A Psalm of David.


1 I in the Lord do put my trust:
how is it then that ye
Say to my soul, Flee, as a bird,
unto your mountain high?
2 For, lo, the wicked bend their bow,
their shafts on string they fit,
That those who upright are in heart
they privily may hit.
3 If the foundations be destroy'd,
what hath the righteous done?
4 God in his holy temple is,
in heaven is his throne:
His eyes do see, his eye-lids try
5 men's sons. The just he proves:
But his soul hates the wicked man,
and him that vi'lence loves.
6 Snares, fire and brimstone, furious storms,
on sinners he shall rain:
This, as the portion of their cup,
doth unto them pertain.
7 Because the Lord most righteous doth
in righteousness delight;
And with a pleasant countenance
beholdeth the upright.

 Psalm Eleven  -- Scottish Metrical Psalter

Hollow Coves - Anew

Hollow Coves - Anew 

When the snow starts to fall
And you’re buried down beneath it all
When the light fades away
If you lose your breath and the words to say

Tides will turn
Rest assured
‘Cause seasons pass
A new day dawns
And through the clouds the sun will shine
To guide you home into the light

Let us follow where rivers flow
Let’s see how far we can go
When it feels like you’re out on your own
Hear the voice that’s calling you home

Ooooo

You’ve still got so much more to say
Don’t let this life you have slip away
(Live for another day)
The sun will rise with each new day
Don’t let this life you have slip away
(Live for another day)

Ooooo

You’ve still got so much more to say
Don’t let this life you have slip away
(Live for another day)
The sun will rise with each new day
Don’t let this life you have slip away
(Live for another day)

 The Happy Fits - While You Fade Away

Verse 1:
Starin’ at the ground, gonna get much better,
But you’re thinkin to yourself bout it every day.
Starin’ in the clouds is a big bright future,
But you’re never gonna get it if you’re never get to say:
(I got that love. I got that love.)
 
Chorus:
I got that love, little love that you leave me while you fade away.
Inside my heart is a drum that is beating for you every single day.
 
Verse 2:
Bendin’ over backwards, nobody want no bruises,
But she knows how to see right through it.
You change but it’s not enough. You change but you’ll never know, what
She wants, what you want, what she needs, what you need, (you’ll never know);
She wants, what you want, what she needs, what you need, (you’ll never know);
She wants, what you need, and you need.
 
Chorus 
 
Verse 3:
Rollin’, rollin’ through all of the noises
You make inside of your mind.
Forget all that visible lust, that metaphysical trust; what you trying find?
Always the hardest, and always the rightest, they all gotta stand for the same damn thing.
 
Chorus x2
 
Bridge:
You wanted that fever, oh now boy you got it.
So taste it, don’t waste it, all you thought wanted. 
 
For your love I'm beggin' you please;
I got chains at your door and need a release.

I Prevail - Bad Things

 I Prevail - Bad Things

 

 I’ve got a lot of bad things in my mind
The simulation crashing by design
And my mind is dangerous
Don’t play with things you don’t
know know know know

I’m falling into dark thoughts that I find
Reality is long gone but that’s fine
And my mind is dangerous
Don’t play with things you don’t
know know know know

I know you hate to see it, but you never wanna talk about it
And hate yourself a little more when you can’t live without it
It’s like praying for rain when you’re already drowning
You’re already drowning, Yeah

So go ahead and twist the knife, I can’t feel the damage
Always searching for the high, never kicked the habit
It’s like praying for rain but I’m already drowning

I keep staring at the sun
it’s in my blood
I’m heading for disaster
Burn bridges just for fun
Have I gone numb? it’s a G-- damn shame
I push away the people that I love the most
Addicted to the feeling and the chemicals
I’m holding onto hope, but it only destroys me
Cause I’m in love with bad things
Yeah I’m in love with

I keep on falling like it’s summer going into autumn
I keep on digging even though I’m bout to hit the bottom
I keep praying for change, but I never found it, no I never found it

Yeah

So go ahead and twist the knife, I can’t feel the damage
Always searching for the high, never kicked the habit
It’s like praying for change but I never found it

I keep staring at the sun
it’s in my blood
I’m heading for disaster
Burn bridges just for fun
Have I gone numb? it’s a G-- damn shame
I push away the people that I love the most
Addicted to the feeling and the chemicals
I’m holding onto hope, but it only destroys me
Cause I’m in love with bad things
Yeah I’m in love with

Looking into the abyss, the future is a myth
I’m holding onto hope, it’s a problem I admit
Letting go of my fear, a feeling I miss
The Devil is real and I’m caught in his grip
Looking into the abyss, the future is a myth
I’m holding onto hope, it’s a problem I admit
Letting go of my fear, a feeling I miss
The Devil is real
And I’m caught in his grip

I keep staring at the sun
it’s in my blood
I’m heading for disaster
Burn bridges just for fun
Have I gone numb? it’s a G-- damn shame
I push away the people that I love the most
Addicted to the feeling and the chemicals
I’m holding onto hope, but it only destroys me
Cause I’m in love with bad things
Yeah I’m in love with bad things
Yeah I’m in love with

The Devil is real and I’m caught in his grip

 Chevelle - Family System

 

 [Verse 1]
I'm tired of your open mouth
Crawling inside my skin
Endless pain we never quit
The fight within that pride's begun
Saying it's too late
What a man's got, he'll learn to hate

[Verse 2]
Forget the time I said I would
Replace that with I never will
Beyond the facts held in your face
Ignore the facts beyond your nose
Saying it's too late
What a man's got, he'll learn to hate

[Bridge]
Grow up!

Not without meaning
No response, no revealing

[Outro]
Just grow up!
Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!

Seether- No Jesus Christ

 Seether- No Jesus Christ

Before you hedge those bets you placed against me
Be reticent of fortunes they foretell
Your verbal defecation i can't wash away despite myself
Your vanity, it seems, has served you well

You're so quick to choose the path walked by the righteous
So you can go and nest among the weak
The innocent observers will refuse to find the lie within
Renew the disappointment of the meek

You're no Jesus Christ!
You're no Jesus Christ!

Put the gun in my mouth and pull the trigger
I feel so alive here
Put the gun in my mouth that tastes so bitter
I feel so alive here
You're no Jesus Christ!
You're no Jesus Christ!

You keep takin' over
I keep rollin' over
I can't take it anymore [x2]

Before you hedge those bets you placed against me
Be reticent of fortunes they foretell
Your verbal defecation i can't wash away despite myself
Your vanity, it seems, has served you well

You keep takin' over
I keep rollin' over
I can't take it anymore [x4]

A Day To Remember - Resentment

 A Day To Remember - Resentment

 

Resentment 

I need a short term fix for a long term problem
Can I️ learn to love these chains
I️ know I had a point but now I forgot it 
While I’m circlin the drain
 
No I can’t stop feelin like everday's exactly the same
With a one track mind I don’t think I can change
Trapped in memories stuck on replay replay replay
 
Starts with a spark then it’s a wildfire
Burning me up 
Burning me up
A dance with demons on a high wire 
Lift me up 
Lifting me up
 
Resentment 
 
Ya know I lost my voice when I let the rot in
Hard truth cuts both ways
Pourin out my heart 
all that’s unforgiven
Washin over me like rain
 
No I can’t stop feelin like everday's exactly the same
With a one track mind I don’t think I can change
Trapped in memories stuck on replay replay replay
 
Starts with a spark then it’s a wildfire
Burning me up 
Burning me up
A dance with demons on a high wire 
Lift me up 
Lifting me up
 
Resentment
 
I’ve got this chip on my shoulder
So I press the issues on sight
For all who need introduction
Welcome to the eye of the tiger
Go
 
Starts with a spark then it’s a wildfire
Burning me up 
Burning me up
A dance with demons on a high wire 
Lift me up 
Lifting me up
 
Resentment
 
It’s a wildfire
It’s a wildfire

Gungor - This is Not the End

 Gungor - This is Not the End

This is not the end
This is not the end of this
We will open our eyes wide, wider
This is not our last
This is not our last breath
We will open our mouths wide, wider
And you know you'll be alright
Oh and you know you'll be alright
This is not the end
This is not the end of us
We will shine like
The stars bright, brighter

Three Days Grace - Mayday

 Three Days Grace - Mayday

We'll never say, we'll never say mayday
Welcome to the end, just take a number
(Just get used to the influence you're under)
It's the same old story of
Wanting it all but it's never enough
The more you know, you know, you know nothing
We walk like dead people who haven't died yet
We ride like passengers without a pilot
We be losing our minds, but we all try to hide it
It's hard to keep fighting when you're barely surviving
We'll never say, we'll never say mayday
Then follow the leader right off the cliffs edge
All your dreams are down below
Buried under broken bones
The more you know, you know, you know nothing
We walk like dead people who haven't died yet
We ride like passengers without a pilot
We be losing our minds, but we all try to hide it
It's hard to keep fighting when you're barely surviving
Calm down, we'll be okay
Just some turbulence, we're on our way
We're going down, but not today
We'll never say mayday
We walk like dead people who haven't died yet
We ride like passengers without a pilot
We be losing our minds, but we all try to hide it
It's hard to keep fighting when you're barely surviving
We walk like dead people who haven't died yet
We ride like passengers without a pilot
We be losing our minds, but we all try to hide it
It's hard to keep fighting when you're barely surviving
We're still alive
We're losing our minds
We'll never say, we'll never say mayday
We'll never say, we'll never say mayday

Proverbs Chapter 12


1    WHOSO loveth instruction loveth knowledge:  but he that hateth reproof is brutish.

2    A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD:  but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.

3    A man shall not be established by wickedness:  but the root of the righteous shall not be moved.

4    A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband:  but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.

5    The thoughts of the righteous are right:  but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.

6    The words of the wicked are to lie in wait for blood:  but the mouth of the upright shall deliver them.

7    The wicked are overthrown and are not:  but the house of the righteous shall stand.

8    A man shall be commended according to his wisdom:  but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised.

9    He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread.

10    A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast:  but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.

11    He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread:  but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding.

12    The wicked desireth the net of evil men:  but the root of the righteous yieldeth fruit.

13    The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips:  but the just shall come out of trouble.

14    A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth:  and the recompence of a man's hands
    shall be rendered unto him.

15    The way of a fool is right in his own eyes:  but he that hearkeneth unto counsel is wise.

16    A fool's wrath is presently known:  but a prudent man covereth shame.

17    He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness:  but a false witness deceit.

18    There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword:  but the tongue of the wise is health.

19    The lip of truth shall be established for ever:  but a lying tongue is but for a moment.

20    Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil:  but to the counsellors of peace is joy.

21    There shall no evil happen to the just:  but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.

22    Lying lips are abomination to the LORD:  but they that deal truly are his delight.

23    A prudent man concealeth knowledge:  but the heart of fools proclaimeth foolishness.

24    The hand of the diligent shall bear rule:  but the slothful shall be under tribute.

25    Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop:  but a good word maketh it glad.

26    The righteous is more excellent than his neighbour:  but the way of the wicked seduceth them.

27    The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting:  but the substance of a diligent man is precious.

28    In the way of righteousness is life:  and in the pathway thereof there is no death.


    Proverbs Chapter 12 - KJV

Ephesians Chapter Five

 Chapter Five

1    BE ye therefore followers of God as dear children:

2    And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for
    a sweetsmelling savour.

3    But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints.

4    Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient:  but rather giving of thanks.

5    For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater,
    hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

6    Let no man deceive you with vain words:  for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

7    Be not ye therefore partakers with them.

8    For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord:  walk as children of light:

9    (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

10    Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.

11    And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

12    For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

13    But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light:  for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

14    Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.

15    See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise.

16    Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

17    Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

18    And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess;  but be filled with the Spirit;

19    Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

20    Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

21    Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

22    Wives, submit ourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

23    For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church:  and he is the saviour of the body.

24    Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

25    Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

26    That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

27    That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing;  but that it should
    be holy and without blemish.

28    So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies.  He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

29    For no man ever yet hated his own flesh;  but nourisheth and cheriseth it, even as the Lord the church:

30    For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

31    For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

32    This is a great mystery:  but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

33    Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself;  and the wife see that she reverence her husband.

Kensington - Uncharted

 Kensington - Uncharted

No one knows just what to say
It's like we're in uncharted territory
No one knows the proper way
It's like the ground has fallen from under me

And all sensible words
All sensible hearts
Oh where do they go?
And why do they leave us now?

And if I could go back again, I'll go back again
If the worst is happening, how does anything work?
Now let me please go back again, I'll go back again

No one knows what part to play
It's like we're in uncharted territory
No one knows another way
It's like all grace in life has parted from me

And all sensible words
All sensible souls
Oh where do they go?
And why do they leave us now?

And if I could go back again, I'll go back again
If the worst is happening, how does anything work?
Now let me please go back again, I'll go back again

And all sensible words
All sensible hearts
Keep calling for course
A heading or buoy
Could the end be a start?
All sensible souls
Oh where do they go?
And why do they leave us now?

And if I could go back again, I'll go back again (I'll go back again, I'll go back again)
The worst is happening, how does anything work?
Now let me please go back again, I'll go back again (I'll go back again, I'll go back again)

And if I could go back again, I'll go back again (I'll go back again, I'll go back again)
The worst is happening, how does anything work?
Now let me please go back again, I'll go back again (I'll go back again, I'll go back again)

No one knows just what to say
It's like we're in uncharted territory

Green Day - Holiday

 Green Day - Holiday

Say hey!
Cha!
Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an Armageddon flame (hey!)
The shame, the ones who died without a name
Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (hey!)
And bleed, the company lost the war today, and
Oh I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives (whoa, oh, whoa, oh)
On holiday!
Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protester has crossed the line (hey!)
To find the money's on the other side
Can I get another amen? (Amen!)
There's a flag wrapped around a score of men (hey!)
A gag, a plastic bag on a monument
Oh I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives (whoa, oh, whoa, oh)
On holiday!
Hey!
Three, four!
The representative from California has the floor
"Sieg Heil" to the president Gasman
Bombs away is your punishment
Pulverize the Eiffel towers
Who criticize your government
"Bang! Bang!" goes the broken glass, and
Kill all the fags that don't agree
Try to fight fire, setting fire
Is not a way that's meant for me
Just 'cause (hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Just 'cause, because we're outlaws, yeah (hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
Oh I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives (whoa, oh, whoa, oh)
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives (whoa, oh, whoa, oh)
This is our lives on holiday!

Shinedown - Sound of Madness

 Shinedown - Sound of Madness

 [Intro]
Yeah, I get it you're an outcast
Always under attack
Always comin' in last
Bringin' up the past
No one owes you anything
I think you need a shotgun blast
A kick in the ass
So paranoid, watch your back
Oh my, here we go

[Verse 1]
Another loose cannon gone bipolar
Slipped down, couldn't get much lower
Quicksand's got no sense of humor
I'm still laughin' like hell

[Pre-Chorus]
You think that by cryin' to me
Lookin' so sorry that I'm gonna believe
You've been infected by a social disease
Well, then take your medicine

[Chorus]
I created the sound of madness
Wrote the book on pain
Somehow I'm still here
To explain
That the darkest hour never comes in the night
You can sleep with a gun
But when you gonna wake up and fight
For yourself

[Verse 2]
I'm so sick of this tombstone mentality
If there's an afterlife, then it'll set you free
But I'm not, gonna part the seas
You're a self-fulfilling prophecy

[Pre-Chorus]
You think, that by cryin' to me
Lookin' so sorry that I'm gonna believe
You've been infected, by a social disease
Well, then take your medicine

[Chorus]
I created the sound of madness
Wrote the book on pain
Somehow I'm still here
To explain
That the darkest hour never comes in the night
You can sleep with a gun
But when you gonna wake up and fight
For yourself

[Bridge]
Well I created the sound of madness
Wrote the book on pain
Somehow I'm still here
To explain
That the darkest hour never comes in the night
You can sleep with a gun
But when you gonna wake up... when you gonna wake up
And fight

[Chorus]
I created the sound of madness
Wrote the book on pain
Somehow I'm still here
To explain
That the darkest hour never comes in the night
You can sleep with a gun
But when you gonna wake up and fight
For yourself

[Outro]
But when you gonna wake up and fight
For yourself
But when you gonna wake up and fight
For yourself
When you gonna wake up and fight
For yourself

Proverbs Chapter 11



1    A FALSE balance is abomination to the LORD:  but a just weight is his delight.

2    When pride cometh, then cometh shame:  but with the lowly is wisdom.

3    The integrity of the upright shall guide them:  but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.

4    Riches profit not in the day of wrath:  but righteousness delivereth from death.

5    The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way:  but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.

6    The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them:  but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.

7    When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish:  and the hope of unjust men perisheth.

8    The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked cometh in his stead.

9    An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour:  but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.

10    When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth:  and when the wicked perish, there is shouting.

11    By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted:  but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.

12    He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour:  but a man of understanding holdeth his peace.

13    A talebearer revealeth secrets:  but he that is of a faithful spirit concealeth the matter.

14    Where no counsel is, the people fall:  but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

15    He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it:  and he that hateth suretiship is sure.

16    A gracious woman retaineth honour:  and strong men retain riches.

17    The merciful man doeth good to his own soul:  but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh.

18    The wicked worketh a deceitful work:  but to him that soweth righteousness shall be a sure reward.

19    As righteousness tendeth to life:  so he that pursueth evil pursueth it to his own death.

20    They that are of a froward heart are abomination to the LORD:  but such as are upright in their way are his delight.

21    Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished:  but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.

22    As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.

23    The desire of the righteous is only good:  but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

24    There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth;  and there is that withholden more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty.

25    The liberal soul shall be made fat:  and he that watereth shall be watered also himself.

26    He that withholden corn, the people shall curse him:  but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it.

27    He that diligently seeketh good procureth favour:  but he that seeketh mischief, it shall come unto him.

28    He that trusteth in his riches shall fall;  but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.

29    He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind:  and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.

30    The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life;  and he that winneth souls is wise.

31    Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth:  much more the wicked and the sinner.


    Proverbs Chapter 11 - KJV

Ephesians Chapter Four


1    I THEREFORE, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,

2    With all lowliness and meekness, and longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

3    Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

4    There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

5    One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6    One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

7    But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

8    Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.

9    (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

10    He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)

11    And he gave some, apostles;  and some, prophets;  and some, evangelists;  and some, pastors and teachers;

12    For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

13    Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure
    of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

14    That we henceforth be no more children tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, 
    by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

15    But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

16    For whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth,
    according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

17    This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

18    Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them,
    because of the blindness of their heart:

19    Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

20    But ye have not so learned Christ;

21    If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

22    That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

23    And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

24    And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

25    Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour:  for we are members one of another.

26    Be ye angry, and sin not:  let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

27    Neither give place to the devil.

28    Let him that stole steal no more:  but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, 
    that he may have to give to him that needeth.

29    Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may 
    minister grace unto the hearers.

30    And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

31    Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice:

32    And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Glorious Sons - New Plan

 Glorious Sons - New Plan

Hold me
I can’t believe you like the old me
I think you’re walking ‘round lonely, lonely
Thinking hold me, hold me 

I’m dead tired
I’m sick of trying to stay inspired
‘Cause I’ve been walking ‘round on fire, on fire
I’ve been dead tired, dead tired 

So keep a light on
Look out your kitchen window here I am
Oh we both know I’m not a great man, great man
But I can understand, understand

I’ve been thinking you should leave him
I’ve been catching myself dreaming
I’ve been concocting up a new plan
Cause I’ve been thinking you should leave him, leave him

I’m more self aware
Enough to know that I’ve been impaired
I make you think that I care, I care
But I didn’t care, now I care

Cause in a past life
I think I knew you oh I swear to god
You’ve been a part of me for so long, so long
Tell me I’m wrong, I’m wrong

I’ve been thinking you should leave him
I’ve been catching myself dreaming, dreaming
I’ve been concocting up a new plan
Cause I’ve been thinking you should leave him, leave him

I’ve been thinking ‘bout it (all my life)
I’ve been thinking ‘bout it (all my life)
I’ve been thinking ‘bout it (all my life)
All my life

I’ve been thinking you should leave him
I’ve been catching myself dreaming
I’ve been concocting up a new plan
Cause i’ve been thinking you should leave him, leave him

Hold me
Can’t believe you like the old me
I think you walk around lonely, lonely
Thinking hold me, hold me

Judah & the Lion - Starting Over

Judah & the Lion - Starting Over

 

I sold off all of the things we bought together
All of our dreams and all of our old college sweaters
And I brought out all of our skeletons in the closet
Pointed fingers at your trauma, me the child of an alcoholic
And I don’t know if it even helped me with the closure
But I suppose I’m getting closer to
Starting over

Down in my heart I tried to find some direction
Filling up my head with another antidepressant
And it ripped me up more than I’d care to admit it
I looked you in the eyes and I told you you’d regret it
And I don’t know if these songs help the getting over
Or if I’m just getting older, I’m getting older

And I fought God, and I made a deal with the heavens
Forgive myself meant that I’d have to accept it
And I got a new spot, and I thought that it would fix it
And if I’m being honest, I wish that you were in it
When I look back now it’s not with the anger
Just sad as hell cause you’re a stranger
You’re a stranger

So lay down your armor
Surrender in honor
You can be free when you leave it behind

Try being stronger
Held on for longer
You can be free when you leave it behind

You can be free when you leave it behind

I thought I’d write you a letter
Someday things will get better
I know it feels like forever
When you get to the end
You’ll just start over again

The Killers - When You Were Young

 The Killers - When You Were Young

 You sit there in your heartache

Waiting on some beautiful boy to 

To save you from your old ways

You play forgiveness

Watch it now

Here he comes



He doesn't look a thing like Jesus

But he talks like a gentleman

Like you imagined

When you were young



Can we climb this mountain

I don't know

Higher now than ever before 

I know we can make it if we take it slow

Let's take it easy

Easy now

Watch it go



We're burning down the highway skyline

On the back of a hurricane 

That started turning

When you were young

When you were young



And sometimes you close your eyes

And see the place where you used to live

When you were young



They say the devil's water

It ain't so sweet

You don't have to drink right now

But you can dip your feet

Every once in a little while



You sit there in your heartache

Waiting on some beautiful boy to 

To save you from your old ways

You play forgiveness

Watch it now

Here he comes



He doesn't look a thing like Jesus

But he talks like a gentleman

Like you imagined

When you were young

(talks like a gentleman)

(like you imagined)

When you were young



I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus

He doesn't look a thing like Jesus

But more than you'll ever know

 Josiah Queen - Take Me Home

[Verse 1]
Teach me, Lord, teach me to love You like I am a child
I've been overthinking, complicated my own life
But I want Your presence here like Heaven
I'm on my knees right now

[Chorus]
Take me home, take me home
To the place where I belong
Where You go, I will go
Your presence is my home
I need something real, I need something from Heaven's throne
It's not a feeling, it's just like being home
Take me home to the place where I belong

[Verse 2]
This love is deep, but the road ain't wide
My gaze is filled, my arms stretched wide
It ain't enough to live this life unless I live with You

[Chorus]
Take me home, take me home
To the place where I belong
Where You go, I will go
Your presence is my home
I need something real, I need something from Heaven's throne
It's not a feeling, it's just like being home
Take me home to the place where I belong, woo

[Pre-Chorus]
But I want Your presence here like Heaven
I'm on my knees right now

[Chorus]
Take me home, take me home
To the place where I belong
Where You go, I will go
Your presence is my home
Oh, I need something real, I need something from Heaven's throne
It's not a feeling, it's just like being home
So take me home to the place where I belong

[Outro]
Take me home, take me home
Your presence is my home

Proverbs Chapter 10


1    THE proverbs of Solomon.  A wise son maketh a glad father:  but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.

2    Treasures of wickedness profit nothing:  but righteousness delivereth from death.

3    The LORD will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish:  but he casteth away the substance of the wicked.

4    He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand:  but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.

5    He that gathereth in summer is a wise son:  but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.

6    Blessings are upon the head of the just:  but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

7    The memory of the just is blessed:  but the name of the wicked shall rot.

8    The wise in heart will receive commandments:  but a prating fool shall fall.

9    He that walketh uprightly walketh surely:  but he that perverteth his ways shall be known.

10    He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow:  but a prating fool shall fall.

11    The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life:  but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

12    Hatred stirreth up strifes:  but love covereth all sins.

13    In the lips of him that hath understanding wisdom is found:  but a rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding.

14    Wise men lay up knowledge:  but the mouth of the foolish is near destruction.

15    The rich man's wealth is his strong city:  the destruction of the poor is their poverty.

16    The labour of the righteous tendeth to life:  the fruit of the wicked to sin.

17    He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction:  but he that refuseth reproof erreth.

18    He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.

19    In the multitude of words there wanteth not sin:  but he that refraineth his lips is wise.

20    The tongue of the just is as choice silver:  the heart of the wicked is little worth.

21    The lips of the righteous feed many:  but fools die for want of wisdom.

22    The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.

23    It is as sport to a fool to do mischief:  but a man of understanding hath wisdom.

24    The fear of the wicked, it shall come upon him:  but the desire of the righteous shall be granted.

25    As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more:  but the righteous is an everlasting foundation.

26    As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.

27    The fear of the LORD prolongeth days:  but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.

28    The hope of the righteous shall be gladness:  but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.

29    The way of the LORD is strength to the upright:  but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.

30    The righteous shall never be removed:  but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.

31    The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom:  but the froward tongue shall be cut out.

32    The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable:  but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.
