Jump awake in the middle of the night
Gasping for air ; heart beating out of my chest
Cheeks wet from the river of tears falling
Panicking as I struggle to take a breath
Feels like the room is spinning all around me
The air is too thick;can feel the anticipation
I feel your strength as your arms touch mine
Hear you whisper just breathe; it’s gonna be okay
Those words from your lips into my ear
Knowing you are with me instantly calms my nerves
My body begins to respond; a sense of peace returns
At times everything feels so overwhelming
When I don’t know if I’m coming or going
My whole world feels upside down and backwards
But somehow you always know what to say
Your very presence takes away my fears
You are the calmness in my storm of panic
You hold me up when it all becomes too much
Become my backbone when I don’t have the strength
When i get weak your arms carry the load
If I feel like I’m drowning you swim harder for me
When there’s no more fuel in my tank you fill me up
At times everything feels so overwhelming
When I don’t know if I’m coming or going
My whole world feels upside down and backwards
But somehow you always know what to say
Your very presence takes away my fears
You are the calmness in my storm of panic
If I’m having a tough moment you remind me to breathe
If I can’t find the words you know my thoughts
You know just what to say to make me feel strong again
You are the calmness in the air after the hurricane blows through
When everything feels so overwhelming
When I don’t know if I’m coming or going
When my whole world is upside down and backwards
Somehow you always know what to say
Your very presence takes away my fears
You become the calmness in my storm of panic
You are the cure for my soul when it’s in turmoil….
You are the one I need by my side….
My love, my friend, my peace, my heart…
Been jumping through hoops for years
Following all the rules like they tell me to
Crossing all my t’s and dotting all the i’s
The truth is it’s pointless cuz no one cares
I make myself crazy worrying about the work
Trying to do the impossible all alone
Putting pressure on my shoulders to carry it all
One person shouldn’t be this stressed
Truth be told they know they are wrong
Truth be told they only care about themselves
Truth be told I’m getting sick of it all
Truth be told I can’t wait to get outta this place
It used to be about hard work and dedication
They used to make you feel appreciated
Somewhere along the way it all got twisted
Now it’s turned into every man for himself
Morale took a hit and the facade is cracking
It won’t be long before everyone else sees it
Once they do, the empire will begin to fall
All the kings men will come tumbling down
Truth be told they know they are wrong
Truth be told they only care about themselves
Truth be told I’m getting sick of it all
Truth be told I can’t wait to get outta here
The good ones are all worn out
Tired of living and breathing this place
The grass is looking greener everywhere else
Time to kiss this place goodbye….
It didn’t have to be this way…
The world is changing for the worse
This generation is destroying things
But they’re so blind that they can’t even see it
Truth be told they know they are wrong
Truth be told they only care about themselves
Truth be told I’m sick of it all
Truth be told I counting down the days till I’m outta here…..
You Saved Me
It’s just a typical ordinary day for you
Flash a smile when you see me; whisper good morning
A gentle kiss on my forehead or the tip of my nose
You have no idea what those little moments mean to me
How something so small makes me feel so loved
I tried to be tough and stay strong for the kids
Didn’t want them to see how broken I was
Then you came along and picked up the pieces
Held me together when I felt too weak
Never left me have to go through it alone
You took time to do the little things just to help me
All those moments where you held my hand
You stood by my side so I never felt alone
You have no idea how much it all meant to me
When I felt lost and hopeless you saved me…
I don’t know if I would have made it through
The dark thoughts almost won on a few nights
But somehow you sensed when I needed you
The texts; the calls were enough to snap me back
You have no idea how just knowing you saved me
You brought the light to the end of my tunnel
You were like the rainbow in the sky after the storm
You built me up after he had torn me down
You made me remember how strong I could be
You are the reason I made it through it all
You did all the little things just to help me
All those moments where you held my hand
You stood by my side so I never felt alone
You have no idea how much it all meant to me
When I felt lost and hopeless you saved me…
Don’t know how to repay all you did for us
Not sure saying thank you is gonna be enough
You put the pieces of my broken heart back together
Made me feel like I was worth being loved
You are the true love of my life and my best friend
You’re the one I wanna grow old alongside
The only person who knows every part of me
The one who can make me smile and laugh
The only partner I ever want in this lifetime
The man I will love even after I take my last breath
You’re always there when I need help
Love the moments when you hold my hand
You stand by my side so I never feel alone
You have no idea how much it all means to me I was feeling lost and hopeless but you saved me…
Because of you I am whole again…
Because of you I feel alive again…
You took my broken heart and saved me…

It feels like it was only moments ago
That you were a wide eyed little baby;
Staring into my eyes, snuggled in my arms
Both of us instinctively knew you were safe
One minute your babies rely on you for everything
Months pass; suddenly they’re walking on their own
You blink and they’re running off with friends
Then before you know it they’re all grown up
This life we live can be so unpredictable
You never know how one decision made
Can alter our lives forever more
So hug your babies tight; just hold them…
We try to guide our children the best we can
Show them how to love and be good people
We teach them to work hard to be successful
Showcase how to make family time important
There comes a point where we have to set them free
Allow them to make their own decisions
It’s a happy and proud time to see their growth
And hard cuz we can’t protect them like we used to
This life we live can be so unpredictable
You never know how one decision made
Can alter our lives forever more
So hug your babies tight; just hold them…
I hope my babies always can feel my love
I pray they stay safe in all they choose to do
I want them to never forget they have family
And they can accomplish whatever they want
It doesn’t make it any easier to let them go
I have to keep my faith that they will be fine
But no matter how old they get;
They’ll always be our babies so just hold them…just hold them…..
Wake up every day not knowing what’s gonna happen
Is it gonna be a good one or a test of my patience
They wonder why I sit in the dark enjoying my coffee
Cuz it’s the only peaceful time of the day I can find
I try to keep a positive attitude but I’m struggling
Knowing that at any second the other shoe will drop
Want to have a home filled with happiness
But it’s difficult to accomplish with all that’s happening
I’m struggling to keep my head above water
No one can hear my inner voice that’s screaming
I’m struggling to do all that I feel I should
No one knows the sadness that’s eating me up inside
I’m supposed to help everyone; do the right thing
Even though I’m lost at what that actually is
I’m just wondering aimlessly trying to figure it out
Have no idea what the right answer should be
I’m supposed to fix all the problems for them
But no sees that I need help with my own issues
I’m trying to be strong; putting on the brave face
But I’m falling apart and crying endlessly
I’m struggling to keep my head above water
No one can hear my inner voice that’s screaming
I’m struggling to do all that I feel I should
No one knows the sadness that’s eating me up inside
How am I supposed to go on living like this
How can I be the hero for someone else;
When I can’t even save myself from the pain
How do I make everyone understand how I’m hurting
The struggle to keep my head above water
Is overwhelming me; no one can hear me screaming
I’m struggling to do all that I feel I should
No one knows the pain I’m dealing with
Struggling to get through the days
Struggling to not lose my mind
Struggling to find a solution
Struggling so everyone else is okay
Just struggling…just struggling…struggling…
Up staring into the darkness once again
Another night I can’t sleep peacefully
Quiet just makes my mind focus on the hurt
I don’t know how to make myself feel better
The things you chose to do caused pain
You say that I’m overthinking it
But you don’t get to decide how I feel
You can’t justify it and make it go away
The hurt doesn’t stop just because you say so
The pain still lingers in my thoughts
Your confession isn’t the end of the story
It’s the beginning of an endless ache in my heart
It’s like a rollercoaster that I never wanted to ride
The constant up and down of emotions
As soon as I think I’ve learned the turns;
Another loop and twist appears out of nowhere
You were supposed to be my safety zone
I thought I had found the one I could trust
Now I don’t know how to feel anymore
I want to let it go but I keep getting caught up
The hurt doesn’t stop just because you say so
The pain still lingers in my thoughts
Your confession isn’t the end of the story
It’s the beginning of an endless ache in my heart
You say I shouldn’t think of it the way I do
You’re mind says it should be forgotten now
But that’s not how hurt and anger works
It’s not a switch that you can flip for fun
I wish you had taken just a single minute;
A moment of thought for my feelings;
Then we wouldn’t be having this rough time
Instead we would be living our best life together
The hurt won’t stop because you say it should
The pain is lingering on in my thoughts
Your confession didn’t end the story
It was the beginning of my broken heart…
You have to stop causing all this hurt
Find a way to fix this broken heart of mine
I don’t want us to end but I don’t know how to go on
This crazy ride has to come to a stop
I want to be able to let go of the hurt….
In my head it’s a perfect little picture
Our family all living happily ever after
But life isn’t as simple as the snapshot
Reality is the truth slapping you awake
The day to day of dealing with people;
It’s not easy to handle all that comes my way
I’m supposed to know what to do to fix it
I’m expected to make everything all better
Used to be so optimistic about it all
I was calm, cool and confident; so happy…
Now I’m just drained and feeling lifeless
The girl I was then is no more….she’s gone…
Home doesn’t feel safe to me anymore
It makes me want to run and hide away
I hate that I am even feeling like this;
It’s not who I want to be; it’s not who I am
It’s like I have a target on my back
Everyone uses me to dump on so they feel better
No one sees me drowning in the sea all alone
In my head I know it’s not personal but it still hurts
Used to be so optimistic about it all
I was calm, cool and confident; so happy…
Now I’m just drained and feeling lifeless
The girl I was then is no more….she’s gone…
This whole situation is changing who I am
It’s made me feel so empty inside; so lonely From outside it looks like I have ice in my veins
I don’t want to live this way anymore
If I’m going to survive I have to figure it out
I need home to be serenity for myself
I work too hard to not be able to feel safe
The constant chaos that fills my soul is too much
Used to be so optimistic about it all
I was calm, cool and confident; so happy…
Now I’m just drained and feeling lifeless
The girl I was then is no more….she’s gone…
If something doesn’t change very soon
The girl I was will never find her way back
She’s gone….she’s gone….she’s gone….
But I need her to return so I can find my sanity
He’s tan with muscles; covered in tattoos
His eyes say go ahead and try it
A wild one made for tempting the law
The kind of guy I always fall hard for
He’s that guy that brings the adventure
The one that danger follows around
He won’t put up with anyone’s nonsense
The type that charms you but scares you too
I should have known it from the start
Should have been able to guess it
But can’t deny what the heart wants
He’s gonna be trouble but I like it…
He can make me laugh even when I’m mad
He’s a hard worker but still likes to have fun
He’s got a rough exterior but a soft heart
The kind a guy I can’t wait to be around
He’s got that sarcastic personality
The kind that keeps everyone on their toes
Underneath it all he’s a smart man
The type of guy I can’t get enough of
I should have known it from the start
Should have been able to guess it
But can’t deny what the heart wants
He’s gonna be trouble but I like it…
His grin will pull you in and make you stay
Those arms will wrap around you;
They’ll make you never want to leave again
The kind of guy that makes you feel at home
I knew it all from the very beginning
I could’ve guessed how it would be
But I can’t deny what my heart wants
He’s gonna be trouble but I love it…
Trouble is calling me and I love it….

I don’t know if I would have made it through
The dark thoughts almost won on a few nights
But somehow you sensed when I needed you

You put the pieces of my broken heart back together
Made me feel like I was worth being loved
You are the true love of my life and my best friend
You’re the one I wanna grow old alongside
The only person who knows every part of me
The one who can make me smile and laugh
The only partner I ever want in this lifetime
The man I will love even after I take my last breath
You’re always there when I need help
Love the moments when you hold my hand
You stand by my side so I never feel alone
