Anyway, two of my teachers were arrested for sexual molestation, and I decided to write this little piece.
Feelings in Grey
Quote:
[VERSE 1]
The ways one can shatter their reputation
The ways one can shatter our hearts
Living in a time of utter confusion
Our lives have been thrown apart
[PRECHORUS]
If I had one word for this
If I had one try
If I had one shot I'd miss
If I had to die
[CHORUS]
My emotions are a dim light
I wish one day they would shine bright
All the sins we commit
All the dreams we destroy
Ruin the life of your students
Take the dignity of our name
Sexual misconduct and you knew it
Life will never be the same...
[VERSE 2]
I cannot express my bitter emotions
All my feelings are a shade of grey
I don't see blue skies anymore
I don't see yellow bundles of hay
[PRECHORUS]
If I had one word for this
If I had one try
If I had one shot I'd miss
If I had to die
[CHORUS]
My emotions are a dim light
I wish one day they would shine bright
All the sins we commit
All the dreams we destroy
Ruin the life of your students
Take the dignity of our name
Sexual misconduct and you knew it
Life will never be the same... |
The next one, I don't know how to explain. It's kind of a piece about Catholocism, and kind of a piece about relationships. It's a message song that everyone, besides me, will take the wrong way.
Something to Remember / A Little Prayer:
Quote:
[VERSE 1]
I saw you in in my heart every day
I saw you in the streets every night
I felt your presence in the most every way
I seemed to be drifting farther away...
[CHORUS]
I'm trying to keep
Something to remember
I'm losing my religion
I need to save myself
I'm falling away
Calling your name
I need your help
Right now
[VERSE 2]
I saw you in the wind on the streets
I felt you in the breeze by the bay
I hear your music in the birds as they play
I seemed to be drifting farther away
[CHORUS]
I'm trying to keep
Something to remember
I'm losing my religion
I need to save myself
I'm falling away
Calling your name
I need your help
Right now
[BRIDGE]
I'm saying this little prayer
For you to come and rescue me
I can't express the pain I feel
Deep inside
I'm losing my religion
I'm losing my happiness
I feel my sin
I need your grace again
[CHORUS]
I'm trying to keep
Something to remember
I'm losing my religion
I need to save myself
I'm falling away
Calling your name
I need your help
Right now
[CHORUS 2]
I'm saying this little prayer
For you to come rescue me
I need your guiding hand
I can't do it on my own
I've seen your power in the hardships
I've seen you deliver me through
I've seen you keep on closing
The wounds I keep on cutting open
[CHORUS]
I'm trying to keep
Something to remember
I'm losing my religion
I need to save myself
I'm falling away
Calling your name
I need your help
Right now
