I feel it rising, a fire in my chest, a love so wild, I can’t catch my breath.

I Can't Help Myself

Indiana

The road is long, the night is deep  
You cry in silence, lose some sleep  
But stars don’t shine without the dark  
And strength is found in every scar  

You’ve failed before, but still you rise  
With fire burning in your eyes  
No one can walk your path but you  
And every step brings something new  

So hold your breath and count to ten  
You'll find your way back home again  

[Chorus]  
Have faith in you, believe it’s true  
Have faith in you, you'll make it through  
Through every storm, the sky turns blue  
Have faith in you, have faith in you  

They say you’re lost, but they don’t see  
The dream you chase so endlessly  
It’s not their fight, it’s not their race  
You move with courage, style, and grace  
 
Your voice is small but heart is loud  
Don’t need to fit into the crowd  
One quiet step, one louder shout  
You’ll break the chains of fear and doubt  
 
So trust the fire inside your soul  
You’re not half, you are the whole  

[Chorus]  
Have faith in you, believe it’s true  
Have faith in you, you'll make it through  
Through every storm, the sky turns blue  
Have faith in you, have faith in you  

You are the flame in darkest hours  
You hold the keys to all your powers  
When all feels lost and hope is few  
The world still needs the light in you  
Yes, the world still needs the light in you  

[Chorus]  
Have faith in you, believe it’s true  
Have faith in you, you'll make it through  
Through every storm, the sky turns blue  
Have faith in you, have faith in you

Have Faith in You.

lyrics:
The moment seemed to good to be true
Maybe we did it too soon
I’d do it all again

I feel you
The last part of me, you knew
You took me somewhere new
It’s all because of you

You knew how to take it out of me
And you flew, right over me
And I’m used to, giving it all to you

And you take every part of me
And you break
Every chance of hope
That I crave
It’s all because of you
Because of you
It’s all because of you
Sit here and accept my fate

Now I’m alone
I keep my breath close to my home
So I don’t trip and fall too soon
I’m never getting over you

You knew how to take it out of me
And you flew, right over me
And I’m used to, giving it all to you

And you take every part of me
And you break
Every chance of hope
That I crave
It’s all because of you

That I don’t wanna lose
That I don’t wanna move

Maybe I should move on
Set the fire
Set the fire
Burn it through the snow

Because of You

I could feel that something wasn’t right
We weren’t as close as we used to be
Did something break while I wasn’t looking?
What did I miss? Was it something I did?

Your eyes, sharp like shattered glass
Every moment felt like the final drop
Like we were always close to breaking
Two meteors on a single crash course

I never wanted to collide with you
Never meant to hurt or tear you apart
I just need to understand how we got here
‘Cause I still don’t know where it all fell apart

The silences that used to bring peace
Now cut like glass, they cut, they bleed
And we’re fading into the emptiness
Through cracks in the silence

We’re getting lost in uneasy silence
It’s carving a canyon between you and me
I don’t know how to close this distance
I don’t know how to break the quiet

If it’s something I did, just tell me, I’ll make it right
But something’s pulling us down separate roads
And I don’t want to let this fall apart
But every step I take toward you
You take two more away from me

The silences that used to bring peace
Now cut like glass, they cut, they bleed
And we’re fading into the emptiness
Through cracks in the silence

Ah, ah, ahhhh
Cracks in the silence
Ah, ah, ahhhh
Cracks in the silence

Cracks in the Silence

The Whisperer of Reeds

In the stillness of the twilight, where the shadows softly creep,
A tale of the Whisperer stirs from the depths of sleep.
Like desert reeds she sways gently beneath the silver glow,
Her voice a whispered prophecy, a truth few ever know.

With hair like the golden wheat, and eyes that reflect the skies,
A guardian of the secrets that the wild wind only sighs.
She walks through gentle valleys, where the river bends and sways,
While the nightingale sings her songs of love and of the days.

Oh, call her the Whisperer, in her arms the world is still,
She breathes the ancient stories, of the forest, field, and hill.
Hushed tones of nature’s melody fill the air with grace,
As she dances with the moonlight in this sacred, timeless place.

With every sway and every turn, she feels the echoes of time,
Not the steel and fire calling out in a distant chime.
While dark clouds gather ’bove her and tempests clash and burn,
Still she whispers to the grasses, for the world will yet return.

In her heart the winds are howling, in her soul the thunder speaks,
But the gentleness of nature flows through her like river creeks.
Though shadows can be daunting, and the night may seem to reign,
She stands firm, the Whisperer, through the joy and through the pain.

Her kin may feel the tremors of the chaos drawing near,
Yet she listens to the stories that the ancient spirits hear.
In the flicker of the starlight, she can see the paths unfold,
A future painted bright with hope, amidst the tales grown old.

Oh, call her the Whisperer, in her arms the world is still,
She breathes the ancient stories, of the forest, field, and hill.
Hushed tones of nature’s melody fill the air with grace,
As she dances with the moonlight in this sacred, timeless place.

As the dawn approaches, casting gold upon her face,
She embraces all the moments, in this delicate embrace.
For like the reeds that sway and bend, she knows the strength of grace,
And though the steel and fire may come to take her kin,
The whispers of the reeds will always carry hearts within.

So sing, oh Whisperer, in your hushed and gentle tone,
For the tales of yesterday shall never stand alone.
In the echo of the shadows, in the light of morning’s glow,
May your wisdom guide the way, where the desert reeds do flow.

Better Without You (My Dear)

Love song written for a dance with my loved one

By My Side

I want to sing to you-
sing just a few of my keepsakes.
Keepsakes from my voice box.
Sacred secrets of mine-
secrets I've sung in secrecy
from the beginning of our time.
You might very well fall asleep
when I sing my slower
.....lulling lullabies.
Please keep listening.
Please keep listening to me.
