Rains Keep Fallin\'

Rains Keep Fallin'

I was down on my luck
While simply thunderstruck
Now, as the sun rises
My life, it comprises
Of my things in my truck
 
I've been calling
Rains keep fallin'
You keep stallin'
Never gonna give up
You're my back-up
 
Thought that I could see
What you wanted me to be
The part of me that wouldn't fit
Became the reason for our split
Why my things in my truck
 
I've been calling
Rains keep fallin'
You keep stallin'
Never gonna give up
You're my back-up
 
Never did you see in me
As I wanted it to be
You didn't try only pretended
So now our love has ended
The reason my things in my truck
 
I've been calling
Rains keep fallin'
You keep stallin'
Never gonna give up
You're my back-up

On My Knees

 

On My Knees

I've been trying to do right,

Struggling with sin all my life.

I'll get down on my knees,

Dear Lord want you hear my pleas.

Let my promise You atone,

All past mistakes of one's own.

Lord pardon me, or strike me if you please,

I cannot be much lower than my knees.

Struggling with tears could this sorrow ease,

Afterwords such as these.

A word with God in the early morning breeze,

Asked the Lord above for mercy, Save me if you please.

I surrender my will, I'm on my knees,

Just save me please, please.

A Broken World

 

A Broken World

What is the about this world,

As the demonstrator's flag becomes unfurled.

While nervously watching people pass on by,

Nobody stops to ask me why.

Crowds gathered began to cause an uproar,

Smelling the smoke from a burnt-out store.

Suddenly I am gasping desperately for some air.

On every crowded street, people began to stare.

I got shoved and pushed around,

All I could hear was a screamin' sound.

The air burns and I'm tryin' to think straight,

And I don't know how much longer I can wait.

I twist my head and look around,

I see the change in this here town.

I feel tightness as the people press against me,

They're trying to bust out and gettin' free.

While some are looting, robbing or stealing,

Seems they're void of any feeling.
