This is a cover of a really beautiful old French song called "Les Feuilles Mortes" Also known as "Autumn Leaves" in English.

Les Feuilles Mortes

*There are some days where I can't face the reality of existence and life is just too much to continue on... It was on one of those days that I wrote this song and it helped me to get through what I was dealing with, hopefully it will help others as well and help them come out the other side...

Surrender lyrics:
Walking this path all alone, heading nowhere
Feeling so lost with a head full of thoughts of despair
Drowning in sorrow not sure of tomorrow
Just hoping it all disappears
Knowing full well that I make my own hell
As long as I’m living in fear

I know if I were to be honest, I’d say that I lie 
It’s not that I do it on purpose, I swear I don’t try 
But I’m so afraid that I’ll be pushed away, so I hide away in these lies
It’s the only way that I can feel safe, the only way I can survive

Standing at the edge of this cliff
Looking out on to the sky at sunrise
The wind’s at my shoulder it feels like it’s pushing me over
What if I take, just one leap of faith, will all of this quickly be over?

If I jump will I fall, will I die, Will this be the end of this lie
Or will I somehow before I hit the ground learn to fly

Will I open my wings just in time
Will I soar to the heights of the skies
No longer a victim of this game of chance we call life 

I am ready to let myself fly  
I will soar to the heights of the skies
Take that leap of faith now, cause I know that somehow 
I’m able to let myself fly

I will open my wings and I’ll fly
I will soar to the heights of the skies
I surrender myself to all that is good in this life

Surrender (Original)

Last cover of 2015 - My cover of the popular Smashing Pumpkins tune "Disarm" 
One of my favs of all time,


Disarm - Joe Borowsky (Smashing Pumpkins Cover)

This is my cover of Blue October's "Fear" . This song can speak to so many. Theres always a way to get up out of a bad place.
LYRICS:
All my life
Been running from a pain in me
A feeling I don't understand
Holding me down

Rain on me
Underwater
All I am, getting harder
A heavy weight
I carry around.

Today
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
I don't have to let the damage
consume me,
My shadow see through me

Fear in itself
Will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself
And you will walk
Fear in itself
Will use you up and break you down
like you were never enough
I used to fall, now I get back up.

I'm up here
I'm looking at the way down there
I'm staring through the I don't care
It's staring back at me

The beauty is
I'm learning how to face my beast
Starting now to find some peace
Set myself free

Today,
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
I don't have to let the damage
consume me,
My shadow see through me

Fear in itself
Will reel you in
And spit you out over and over again
Believe in yourself
and you will walk
Fear in itself
Will use you up and break you down
like you were never enough
I used to fall but now I get back up

I'm moving on
Oh god just move on
Today,
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid....
Get back up
Get up

Fear in itself will use you up
And break you down just like you're
never enough
I used to fall

Breathe,
Ask for more
if you're bitter still
Ask him to help you carry on.

Lyrics + Chords:

C                   Am                 F                  G	
How long before the world is one family
C                 Am                      F                   G
How long before we learn to live in harmony
         F                   G                C              G              Am
With war nobody wins, with peace we'll all be freed
             F                                               G
From all this hate, injustice and this greed
 

C             G            F                 	G
I have a dream, I hope it will come true
              C           G        F                             G
We'll work as a team, I know that we'll get through
          F                                G         C           G       Am      
These troubles that we've had will soon all go away
        F                                                      G            
The people raise their voices and they say

(Chorus) + Instrumental
 	
C           Am       F                          G
I am a human I know that you are too
       C                                   Am             F            G
Although we might be different, we're family it's true
       F                        G             C          G        Am
I'll love you as my friend, I'll be there till the end
           F                                                           G
When all is done we'll see our dreams come true (x2)
 
Chorus
        F                                                      G                 F     C   F  C
Who needs this hate, injustice and this greed?  Not me  (x3)

How Long (Roxanne Andrighetti Original)

This is a Baha'i Unity prayer which I put to music to sing for my sister's wedding. 

"O my God!  O my God!  Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose.  May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law.  Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee.  O God!  Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love.  Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord.
Bahá’u’lláh
