i wrote this song in the 7th grade

lyrics-
why did you not tell me
that you had other plans
that you, had someone else
why did you not tell me
ahead of time so i didn't wait so long

i guess it's in the past 
you didn't wait long enough 
to see me bloom
seems to me that you've already
moved on, guess  i should too

why did you not let me know
that i, wasn't enough
i think that you owe it to me
to tell me what went wrong

guess it's in the past 
you didn't stay long enough
to see me bloom

why did you not tell me
that you had other plans
that you, had someone else
why did you not tell me
ahead of time so i didn't wait so long

Heart Like Yours - cover

How To Be Yours (written by Chris Renzema) is originally a worship song,, but I've taken the chorus and turned it into something personal. a problem that i can't quite seem to fix within myself

i do not own the rights to this chorus

i wrote a song with Clinton Kane - PART 1

Clinton gave me some lyrics,, & i wrote a song out of them

lyrics;
the weight on my shoulders now
is crashin on my body
say that it's not real loud, 
or that you'll ever find me
waking up and somebody's there,
at your door
be another house that can't fill
all the drawers

say that it's all in my head
but really there's more to my words
than just what I have said
I'm not really sure if I can do this over again
so just let me know and I'll
pretend to have this under control
just let me know and I'll pretend

I don't know if these aches and pains
are affecting my breathing
my lungs are failing to bring in oxygen
and keep myself functioning
the overwhelming thought
that you'll never see it
my vision has started to grow blurry
and my ears have stopped working
the constant pounding from my heart
is making it hard to focus

say that it's all in my head
but really there's more to my words
than just what I have said
I've been here for so long I've began 
to forget what lies beyond this
nervous tension that's taken over my head

say that it's all in my head
but really there's more to my words
than just what I have said
I'm not really sure if I can do this over again
so just let me know and I'll pretend 
just let me know and I'll pretend
to have this under control

this is what pressure feels like

i wrote a song with Clinton Kane - PART 2

Clinton gave me some lyrics,, & i wrote a song out of them

lyrics;

my anxious skin can't seem
to settle into the shaking of my bones
hearts racing, thoughts within my head
have found their way to my heart
layers felt over my skin
intrigue the woriness that is
inevitable to miss

overthinking
constantly changing
to put your best front forward

wide eyes stare, seeming through your heart
and expose, the secrets that you've been keeping
behind walls
it's almost certain to happen

my impatient fingertips
sketch the outlines of my limbs
eager to know what words have seeped in
a painted picture of what this shell feels like - trapped
cold hands on my back

imagine a world where i didn't think so much
and my mind didn't buffer at all

overthinking
constantly changing
to put your best front forward

wide eyes stare, seeming through your heart
and expose, the secrets that i've been keeping
behind walls

it's almost certain to happen
but the uncertainty is worth it
