Waiting - Phase One by Porcupine Tree

Waiting... to be born again

Wanting... the saddest kind of pain
Waiting for the day when I will crawl away

Nothing is what I feel
Waiting... for the drugs to make it real
Waiting... for the day when I will crawl away

Waiting... to be disciplined
Aching... for your nails across my skin
Waiting... for the day when I will crawl away

I feel so cheesy right now..

Runaway

Songwriters: BALLANCE-DREW, BENJAMIN PAUL / SHUCKBURGH, ALEXANDER WILLIAM
Chorus:
Run away, run away, run away and save your life.
Run away, run away, run away if you want to survive.
Run away, run away, run away and save your life.
Run away, run away, run away if you want to survive.

Money, sex, in full control, a generation without soul,
Perfect people in a perfect world, behind closed doors all in control,
Life, in a world of luxury, cold cash money mentality,
You gotta keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
You better keep the faith and run away.

Chorus

Its time to break free, oh oh oh oh, run away, oh oh oh oh,
You better break free, oh oh oh oh, run away, oh oh oh oh.
Money, sex, in full control, look, big brother is watching you,
Unlock your brain and save your soul, no more limits, no more curfew,
Life in the perfect system, take a stand and fight for freedom,
Keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
You better keep the faith and run away.

Chorus several times

Its time to break free, oh oh oh oh, run away,
Oh oh oh oh, you better break free, oh oh oh oh,
Run away, oh oh oh oh
Keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
You better keep the faith and run away.
Keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
You better keep the faith and run away.

Coma <3
by: Lowanla (me)

Hiding under the home made tent
my eyes are closed
and you come into full view
you are everywhere I want to be
if I had it my way I'd be in a coma
just to keep you in sight always

Am I the sickest person or what
that I am that in love with you,
yeah I'm in love with you
Am I the strangest person you dream,
when you are holding me
are you in love with me

Its hard without you, cause I need you,
right beside me, your smile, your frown,
your skin, I need to hear your sound
I need everything, I'm crying inside,
Its hard without you,
I need you in my life,
cause you are a puzzle piece,
that will complete my life's mystery

twirl me around again, cause I'm loving it
lets face adversity, cause I need you there,
I'm hurting, I need you there.
there,
here.

Never Give Up
lyrics by: Josh Bates

Time after time you've been left behind
like the sun when it's starting to rain
Time after time you’ve been forgotten
like a picture that’s faded with age
Time after time you ran after me
when I was still running away

Chorus:
You never give up on me
No, You never give up on me
Though I’m weak you are strong
You told me I still belong
No, you never, never give up on me

Time after time I've used your grace
as a way to do what I please
I've taken for granted prayers that you answered
never been all I could be
You are holding out your hands
and now I clearly see

Chorus

You always erase all my mistakes
You lift me up when I'm down
Through all the ages, Your love never changes
You welcome me just as I am

Chorus

never give up, never give up on me.

That Porcupine Tree song brings up an interesting thought for discussion
how do you know you are born again?

How you know you are born again...

If you can tell someone that you believe that Jesus Christ was born, he performed miracles,
raised the dead, died on the cross, and rose from the grave, is alive still but in Heaven
and will return again. If you can tell someone this without shame but that you truly believe it
in your heart, because you have faith that he really did all of these things,
some people actually don't believe any of this happened...
they go through life hopeless without meaning, without ever knowing the truth of the hope
that is there for them.

somewhere your heart your spirit inside of you has a revelation that Christ is indeed real,
because only the Holy Spirit can give revelations like this, he often does.

Being born again to me means, repenting, and repenting just means changing your mind
about how you view everything by the bible, or how the bible/word of God changed your view.

Example John 3:16 - For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him
shall not perish but have everlasting life"

Reading this scripture shows us that, God gave up Jesus, so that if we only believe in Jesus have faith in him,
we will not perish but we are rescued from death, hell and the grave.

What a revelation! and that is renewing our minds, showing us, hope in Jesus.
​

I am sorry for being frustrating to you,
I know that you were mad at me yesterday,
I know that you go through a lot of turmoil
and hard times, and its been a long struggle

I know that a lot of what I say is hard to understand,
and maybe its too much all at once,
and a lot of the time its frustrating, because you
really are trying.

I want to help you as much as I can with as far
as you given me to help you.
I don't know how to help you,
I want to be there for you,

I just wanted to say sorry for making you feel bad.
I want to encourage you, because I love you,
I want to make you happy but I don't know how,
cause you won't tell me, but I am trying.
​

Life is precious to God For he formed every cell,
every organ, every heart, every tear,
God see's and knows everything
he is not blind to the injustice in the world
he will bring justice to the lost and those who've
been killed in secret...

For now...
This is Gods day of grace for all men,
This is a plenteous time of life and mercy,
...so much mercy, people get away with so much
and they think that God does not see
but he does and he knows men no longer fear him,
he is going to bring justice to this world,
The days of Noah are coming, you can count on it!

I promise you this..

The only reason the Earth has not been destroyed,
is because of the "Salt of the Earth" The Christians
who are constantly praying, who are filled with
the Holy Spirit, to pray for grace and mercy from God,
One day Jesus is coming for his own
because God is opening up the scrolls of Revelation
We are in the last days

When Jesus takes away his children
the grace will be lifted from the world
and the world will see judgement unlike anything before,
because this world has forgotten God,
this world has forgotten goodness and light,
this world is evil and dark

So no God has not turned a blind eye to the evils
he see's but is waiting always
for men to turn their hearts to him,
to change their ways,
he is a God of mercy, and how long is his patience
and love been for thousands of years

There is still hope
but you must follow Christ
and this must be a heart decision,
be willing to leave a fallen world behind

to put your trust in a Savior you cannot see
and at times people may scoff and mock you
and ask "where is your God?"

But don't be afraid, keep the faith, trust in Christ
if you truly believe in him with all your heart
you will not be stolen

for you are in his hand,
and no one shall pluck you from it,
for you are his...forever.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own
understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He
shall direct your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6

Trust In Jesus
Lyrics by: Third Day

One of these days we all will stand in judgment for
Every single word that we have spoken
One of these days we all will stand before the Lord
Give a reason for everything we've done
And what I've done is

Trust in Jesus
My great Deliverer
My strong Defender
The Son of God
I trust in Jesus
Blessed Redeemer
My Lord forever
The Holy One, the Holy One

What are you going to do when your time has come
And your life is done and there's nothing you can stand on
What will you have to say at the judgment throne
I already know the only thing that I can say I

There's nothing I can do on my own to find forgiveness
It's by His grace alone I trust in Jesus
Trust in Jesus

One of these days we all will stand in judgment for
Every single word that we have spoken
One of these days we all will stand before the Lord

Come away/Let me in
by: Jesus Culture

Come away with me, Come away with me
It's never too late, it's not too late
It's not too late for you

I have a plan for you
I have a plan for you
It's gonna be wild
It's gonna be great
It's gonna be full of me
​

Love you
by: Lowanla (me)

I have this dream
where we are at a picnic table
the sun is shining
its just you and me
your eyes are sparkling
the burden on your back is gone
I don't see it there anymore
you are smiling at me
you take my hand
I hold yours tight
there is not a cloud in the sky
Its going to be okay
I know it is
I can hear that in my heart
I know you are scared
cause you came unprepared
but we will make it through
cause I believe in miracles
God made me a promise you will live
and not die
because he has a plan for you
yes you, for your very life
in that sense you are a lot like Paul
who God got a hold of,
but do not fear
even though the odds are great
the greater protection will be over you
and we will be together
because I believe my God can do anything
and he sets before me happiness in disguise
I am happy with you
because of his grace and mercy,
we'll be together for a very long time
you are worth the wait
I've been saving myself for you,
since I was 5 years old I made a promise to God,
that I would save myself for my unknown love
and it would be someone I loved
and do I love you
I do

What Faith Can Do
Lyrics by: Kutless
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1JBSQMkQEo
(Excerpt from Kutless Lyrics)

...
It doesn't matter what you've heard
Impossible is not a word
It's just a reason for someone not to try

Everybody's scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It'll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do

Overcome the odds
when You don't have a chance
(That's what faith can do)
When the world says you can't
It'll tell you that you can!

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That's what faith can do
That's what faith can do!
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise

The Invitation
by: Lowanla (me)

Would you be willing to throw it all away
could you walk away from all the hungry eyes
who dine on your soul for entertainment
they lift you high but suck you dry
could you leave everyone you love behind
could you leave your old life in ruins
would you be willing to die to this world
and be reborn to new kind of life
take my hand and never look back

would you run away with me
this invitation comes but once a lifetime
who knows if we'll get another
would you run away with me
leave them all behind

give it up to fly away
for starry nights and days not wasted
what have you got to lose really
but the days we've lost together
all I need is your invitation
and I'll drop everything and walk away
just to hold you,
for the rest of my days
to be there for you,
I wanna be there for you

Is it worth it where you are at now?
then why do you return to me
lets go somewhere far away
this invitation comes but once a lifetime
who knows if we'll get another
I'm holding my hand out to you,
the invitation rejected or accepted

would you run away with me
leave them all behind

​

Ultimatum (for my guy)

I'm pretty sad aren't I and you can always tell it in my writing
the whole desperation sound of it, love makes you desperate.
Its more or less of an option, I know at this point you probably
won't choose me but I put it there just in case you needed me.
That's if you ever felt that way and wanted me to be there
I would.

I'm no good at ultimatums because I like love, I like being in love
with you, I don't like losing love, I don't like the thought of losing you.

Even when I left you last year, I prayed for you just about everyday,
that God would watch over you and keep you.

I want you to know that, God doesn't give ultimatums,
he loves you no matter what you choose, if you can imagine that,
even if you chose to stay where you are at,
if you make a decision to follow him with your heart and allow him
to lead you and help you, he will. You don't have to
throw anything away really. He wants you just as you are.
Give him an inch he'll take you miles and bless you greatly,
just to show you how much he loves you.

I hope you can spend the day meditating and contemplating this idea,

Love you.
