Building These Walls

I wish you could see
what you do to me
'n i wish you would choose
and no one would have to lose

i know you're hiding
something deep inside
'n i know you're looking
for a boost in your pride

but don't tell me that you love me
until your sure that you do
i'm building up these walls
cuz you so easily break through
o, i don't know why i stay
when i should be running away

i want you to know
it hurts me to let you go
and i want to let you fly
but i just can't say good bye

don't tell me that you love me
until you're sure that you do
i'm buiding up these walls
cuz you so easily break through
oh i don't know why i stay
when i should be running away

You've made it crystal clear
although it's hard for me to hear
i know i'll never be your number one
but it's far too late for me to run
far too late for me to run

just don't tell me that you love me
until you're sure that you do
i'm building up these walls
cuz you so easily break through
but no longer will i stay
cuz i need to run away

Don't Break My Heart

As we walked down the road
I saw it for the first time
I'm too much a part of life
for you to ever love me

always flirting back and forth
it messes with my heart
here i go letting down my guard
when to you it's all a game

Don't go breaking my heart
I can't handle the pain
I've given you my all
now just let me go
you know i'll fall to pieces
please don't break my heart

All those other girls
i guess i've never had a chance
should've known i'd just get hurt
well now i know the truth

Don't go breaking my heart
I can't handle the pain
I've given you my all
now just let me go
you know i'll fall to pieces
please don't break my heart

if you ever change your mind
you know i'll be right here
But at least for now
i'm letting go,
i'm moving on with life

Don't go breaking my heart
I can't handle the pain
I gave you my all
but you let me down
you know i fell to pieces
when you broke my heart

Be My Strength

Deep inside my chest
There's a place in agony
A place that longs for comfort
A place that screams for hope

Deep inside our hearts
We all want someone to love
Someone to stand beside us
Someone to calm the storm

Be my strength
Stand by my side
Hold me when i need you
And your love
Be my guide
My one desire
I know that i can's do this
On my own

Deep inside the pain
There's a place of calm and peace
A place to rest my head
A place i find in you

Be my strength
Stand by my side
Hold me when i need you
And your love
Be my guide
My one desire
I know that i can's do this
On my own

Be still and wait upon the Lord
Be still and wait
Be still and wait upon the Lord
Be still, My soul, Be still

Be my strength
Stand by my side
Hold me when i need you
And your love
Be my guide
My one desire
I know that i can's do this
On my own

Sunset

Sometimes I wonder
What’s my purpose?
Sometime I wish
That I was sure

Sometimes I think
I’m all alone
Sometimes I long
To be with you again

But I’ll admire the sunset
Even knowing darkness is coming
I’ll push through the black and the gray
With a light to lead my feet,
I know I won’t see the sunrise
If I don’t push through the dark ahead

Sometimes I worry
I’m not ready
Sometimes I fear
You’ve got the wrong girl

But I’ll admire the sunset
Even knowing darkness is coming
I’ll push through the black and the gray
With a light to lead my feet,
I know I won’t see the sunrise
If I don’t push through the dark ahead

Minutes turn to hours
Hours turn to days
Days turn to weeks then months
But I’ll hold on tight
Cuz I know sometime soon
Sunrise will come!

But I’ll admire the sunset
Even knowing darkness is coming
I’ll push through the black and the gray
With a light to lead my feet,
I know I won’t see the sunrise
If I don’t push through the dark ahead

what would you remember?

I take a look at life so far
have i given it my all?
Lived every second to it's full
Or merely kept it from being dull

Every time i've said i can't
though it really was i won't
i gave up a chance to live life right
and win the battle, win the fight

If tonight i were to die
what would you remember?
i pray it'd be the good things
good times we've had together
But more than that i hope you saw
God's light shining through
Cuz that's my biggest goal in life
to show his love to you

The lies that add up over time
have left me with a hill to climb
All the traps i fell into
Often held me back from you

Everything i held onto
Selfishly, with out a clue
The lives that i could have improved
If i'd only made the move

If tonight i were to die
what would you remember?
i pray it'd be the good things
good times we've had together
But more than that i hope you saw
God's light shining through
Cuz that's my biggest goal in life
to show his love to you

Lend a hand to the helpless
Lend your heart to the hurting
Lend an ear to the lonely
and lend your love to all

If tonight i were to die
what would you remember?
i pray it'd be the good things
good times we've had together
But more than that i hope you saw
God's light shining through
Cuz that's my biggest goal in life
to show his love to you

little brother

We've had our ups and downs
It's not a perfectrelationship
We've hurt eachother more than once
But we always make up in a few days

We'll go through crap, you know its true
But i will ALWAYS be here for you
This world will try to drag us down
But we'll make it through we've got eachother

Maybe we're not blood-related
Maybe we just got close last year
But you're my little brother
i'll love you always and forever
I'm here when you need me i'm here when you don't
Oh little brother i'll never leave

You know we're close
we can read eachother's minds
you know just how i'm feeling
And how you can make it right

Maybe we're not blood-related
Maybe we just got close last year
But you're my little brother
i'll love you always and forever
I'm here when you need me i'm here when you don't
Oh little brother i'll never leave

You give the greatest hugs i've ever recieved
You're a sensitive guy and i love that about you
You're a beautiful boy becoming a beautiful man
And you're the best friend i could ever ask for
So remember this when you're down
You're loved more than you can imagine
And i've always loved having you around

Maybe we're not blood-related
Maybe we just got close last year
But you're my little brother
i'll love you always and forever
I'm here when you need me i'm here when you don't
Oh little brother i'll never leave
little brother i'll never leave
I will never leave

Move On

She's stuck in the past
can't think about tomorrow
barely getting through today
but the happiness was borrowed
She thinks it's all her fault
It's hard to push through all the sorrow

He just can't get past
His anger at his father
who ruined his childhood
and then he left it all together
he tucks it all inside
then wonders why he even bothers

Oh he's standing over you
with his arms open wide
ready to take your pain away
and bare it if you let him
But you've got to let it go
You've got to move on

It's hard for her to trust
everyone's let her down
she expects them to wrong her
'til then she just waits around
But she hides the pain in a secret room
swears she'll never let it out

Oh he's standing over you
with his arms open wide
ready to take your pain away
and bare it if you let him
But you've got to let it go
You've got to move on

Come to Jesus in the pain
Come to Jesus through the rain
Come to Jesus praise his names
And let him take your pain away

Oh he's standing over you
with his arms open wide
ready to take your pain away
and bare it if you let him
But you've got to let it go
You've got to move on

He's stuck in the past
can't think about tomorrow
