Following "The Fearless Songwriter" prompt for today, July 22nd 2013, I spent just about an hour crafting this song which is basically a (partial) list of things that I wish I had the courage to tell various people...I hope no one is embarrassed if they figure out a verse's about them...

Lyrics:

I've never told you about the accident
I never even tried
I've never told you what the lyric meant
cause I didn't want to lie

I've never told you about the message I saved
in which you loved me as a fact
I erased the next one as soon as I read
I mean but not like that

So many things don't have to be said
Somehow you get to look inside my head
So many thoughts so many signs
You can tell me yours I don't have to tell you mine

I never told you the reason that song
ever made me cry
I looked up the lyrics and I sang along
either way you finally figured out why

So many things don't have to be said
Somehow you get to look inside my head
So many thoughts so many signs
You can tell me yours I don't have to tell you mine

I've never told you you're the reason why
I ordered that bottle of beer
I think somehow it's how to try
to impress a dad who isn't even here


So many things don't have to be said
Somehow you get to look inside my head
So many thoughts so many signs
You can tell me yours I don't have to tell you mine

"If Jesus Didn't Have No Friends" (Astles/Ober/Jesus)
Don't give what you hold holy to the dogs
they'll just throw it in a pile of shit
don't thrown gold and pearls out to the swine
A man might have read every book on the shelf
But if he doesn't know himself
He lacks everything
The bears have their dens
And birds are in their nests
But a man has nowhere to lay his head and rest
it's heaven
Jesus had had his teachings
Jesus was a man
Lord knows that his words would be lost 
If  Jesus didn't have no friends
I'm the king here so if I destroyed the house
I'd be rumble, ashes and all burnt out
And no one could build it again
Wretched is the body
That is dependent on the body
Wretched is the soul
That is dependent on them both
so don't get so weighted down that you can't fly
Why do you wash the outside and the inside of the cup
Blessed is the woman who carved it out of mud
Whoever drinks with me will be as I am
Whoever searches finds, it will open up for him
Jesus had had his teachings
Jesus was a man
Lord knows that his words would be lost 
If  Jesus didn't have no friends
