LOOK OVER HERE!

Grand news everybody,

This one is especially for you Louise (PS; Totally pumped about seeing you tomorrow!!)
I am CURRENTLY in the process of writing music (Like actual piano music) for some of my lyrics. I will be updating this blog on how this current endeavour is going, every so often so you guys can keep up to date. But if any of my readers go to my school, look forward to next year's Vocals for House Arts because I have conned Caitlin into singing some of the lyrics for next year, so it should be very exciting.

Thanks for all the support peoples. It is much appreciated.

Crushed©

What I wouldn't give,
To spend another day
In your arms
You will never know
That I felt this way
And it kills me,
A little more everyday.


If only,
I had the courage to stand up
I would tell you everything.
If only,
I knew you felt the same way.
But life moves on,
Only my world is crushed.


On a crowded street,
You're that friendly face.
When I see you there,
My heart skips a beat.
There is nothing I can do,
To replace the thought of you.


If only,
I had the courage to stand up
I would tell you everything.
If only,
I knew you felt the same way.
But life moves on,
Only my world is crushed.

I see the words planned out.
You wait for the time to speak.
I know what you want to say,
But it still burns my heart.

If only,
I had the courage to stand up,
I would tell you everything.
If only,
I knew you felt the same way.
But life moves on,
Only my world is crushed.

~END~

OK! So let me explain. This one is about the 'G' man...some of you will know who I'm talking about, those that don't, it's this guy that I liked but I let him go because this particular relationship wasn't going to go anywhere past the 'friends' stage. But when you vest so much into a relationship and it gets shoved in your face, it's kind of like they're saying "Ha! Epic Fail!' and then it stings and stings until there is no more feeling. So these lyrics are about me letting him go.

Rescue Me©

We're undone once again.
I hope this is the last time.
I know it's from the bottom of the heart
When you say 'It's for the best.'
You wish that you could stay
If only a day
The darkness calls me in
The light in you eyes has been set free.

I don't know if I
If I can go on any longer.
The attraction is getting stronger.
I'm drowning over here.
Won't you rescue me?

We're drifting futher apart,
It's breaking my heart.
I don't want to see you leave,
It's getting hard to breathe.
Life is moving on,
And I'm just standing still.
The darkness calls me in
Everything else is far from me.

I don't know if I
If I can go on any longer.
The attraction is getting stronger.
I'm drowning over here.
Won't you rescue me?

How am I supposed to move on?
When you carried me through.
Your love so divine,
My soul has lost its way.

I don't know if I
If I can go on any longer.
The attraction is getting stronger.
I'm drowning over here.
Won't you rescue me?

Let's Go To Africa

The only reason this particular blog is an acutal blog is because Brooke Fraser talked about how going to Africa really inspired her writing and stuff so thats pretty much the only reason that I did it like this.

Who wants to come to Africa with me? Any takers? Anyone at all?

Let me explain myself before you give and answer. Ok, so whilst surfing Youtube today I stumbled upon some Brooke Fraser interviews. She was talking about her trip to Africa (more specifically Rwanda) and that now that she has seen whats going down there, she is responsible for what happens to them. Now, that has me thinking that I want to join that bandwagon. I'm not saying that I want to be the next Madonna, you know by adopting have the child population but I want to help. So I was thinking that after year 12 and the HSC before Uni starts for most people, take a trip to a country in Africa and help out.

I have offically decided that when I get my first official job, I and going to start sponsering a child through world vision. Yes, I don't care what my mother says I am going to sponser one. I would love a little boy, but a girl is cool to. I'm looking forward to the futue. This is the first time that this has actually happened, normally I'm just kinda 'whateves' about the future, God has it under control. But now I'm pumped.

SO...
Tell me and we can start looking at stuff so we're all ready to go. And PS if no one goes with me then I won't go because that just isn't happening.

Peace Out,
Lu

Forever©

Were falling faster everyday
Leaving our mark
The people still say
'He'll leave you in the dark'
But this time
We're not giving up.
It's gonna last forever

Our love is deeper than the oceans
Shines brighter than the stars
It will last forever.
We are stronger than steel
We will not be shaken.
Because we are forever
Forever.

Take my hand
You already have my heart.
Draw me close
I know you better every day
And this time
We didn’t give up
Cus we are lasting forever.

Our love is deeper than the oceans
Shines brighter than the stars
It will last forever.
We are stronger than steel
We will not be shaken.
Because we are forever
Forever.

And it’s our time now
Cus you made me
Cus you know me
And you’ll make it last forever
Forever
Forever

Our love is deeper than the oceans
Shines brighter than the stars
It will last forever.
We are stronger than steel
We will not be shaken.
Because we are forever
Forever.

If I Fall©

You know you're bringing back the real me,
Not a judgement in your eyes.
I know I won't be surprised because
This time, I won't leave.
This time, it's for real.

If I fall,
I fall without you.
I can't stand another moment without you.
Cus this is what it's like to be loved by you.
I know that if I fall, I know that you'll fall to.

When everything falls apart,
I know that I can trust you.
Keeping it a secret,
Till I'm strong enough to face the dark.
But you have to go now.

If I fall,
I fall without you.
I can't stand another moment without you.
Cus this is what it's like to be loved by you.
I know that if I fall, I know that you'll fall to.

The moments we shared,
The chaos that we pushed aside.
Bring us back to the place where we belong,
Because we don't wanna be else where.
Else Where

If I fall,
I fall without you.
I can't stand another moment without you.
Cus this is what it's like to be loved by you.
I know that if I fall, I know that you'll fall to.

Ella's Song (Conquering The World)©

I was just 13 years old,
When you came into my life.
I didn't know what you would do,
I didn't understand just how it changed.
But I'm still glad you came.

We don't want it to change.
We want to stay here for one more night
In the night when we are sleeping
In dark when we are scared,
We know you're conquering the world.

At the end of the day,
Be sure that we'll miss you.
When we're altogether,
Be sure that we care
And that we'll always be there.

We don't want it to change.
We want to stay here for one more night
In the night when we are sleeping
In dark when we are scared,
We know you're conquering the world.

Everything's changing,
Every moment growing.
Your guidence your patience,
Keeping us in line.
God's got you now and forever,
So please believe just that.

We don't want it to change.
We want to stay here for one more night
In the night when we are sleeping
In dark when we are scared,
We know you're conquering the world.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~THE END~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This one is for Ella (hence the title), I wrote basically because she asked me to, and also because its kind of like a going away present for her. I <3 Ella.
The one for Nat is coming soon!

Take Me With You©

Fallen on the ground,
Understanding where I broke my bounds,
Not knowing where to turn.
I feel so out of place,
All I can do is watch it burn,
And when I look, I'm out of space.

Take me with you.
So I can hide from my mistakes.
Take me with you
Away from this hate.
The trust that's in your eyes,
From which I cannot hide.
So please, take me with you.

This heart is yours for the taking.
My life I give to you.
You fill me up when I'm empty,
Replenishing my happiness.
If only I could stay in your arms,
Because I know its not over.

Take me with you.
So I can hide from my mistakes.
Take me with you
Away from this hate.
The trust that's in your eyes,
From which I cannot hide.
So please, take me with you.

Everything is coming together,
But I'm still scared.
You promised me forever,
I cannot be sure of what it is.

Take me with you.
So I can hide from my mistakes.
Take me with youAway from this hate.
The trust that's in your eyes,
From which I cannot hide.
So please, take me with you.

Jesus, take me with you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~END~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok, so the reason that I haven't updated in a while is because I actually lost my pink book (It was a sad time in my life...) But it has been found now and I hope you enjoyed the previous lyric splurge. It was kinda an impulsive thing...well the second half was, the rest is written in the pink book.

I Don't Need Anyone Else©

We can't bring our selves to say were sorry,
I hoped this wasn't good bye.
But lately things haven't been like they should.
I had wanted you all this time.
But I never took the chance.

I hope we find a way
Even if were still friends.
Cus all I need is everything you are.
And as long as I'm with you,
I don't need anyone else.

I remember when you came to my rescue.
You battled away the pain,
Just like a gentleman does.
You are my knight in shining armor,
But I'm not your damzel in destress.

I hope we find a way
Even if were still friends.
Cus all I need is everything you are.
And as long as I'm with you,
I don't need anyone else.

I'll try to sleep away the days,
When Im without you.
Hoping you'll come home,
I'm waiting by the phone.
Thinking we could work

I hope we find a way
Even if were still friends.
Cus all I need is everything you are.
And as long as I'm with you,
I don't need anyone else.

I wrote this one about a guy at youth group that I like. I'm going to the Year 10 formal with him, he's like my best guy friend and you know. It's like that best friend love in the movies, where one loves the other, but the other has no idea. I was talking with 'more that tomorow' about it, and she has kissed dating good bye (I admire her strength), and I want to be like that. So this was just a way of....venting I guess. and yes PRIS

I LIKE GARTH

There are you happy now?! And for the record, NO you can't go through my messages.

Am I Good Enough Now?©

I would sit by the mailbox
Just waiting for that letter.
Telling me I got in.
Telling me I was good enough.
The doubtful feeling grew worse
The letter never came.

What if I don't want to be you?
I want to be me.
Failiure, fears and screw ups.

Am I good enough now?
Can I be in your life?
I just want to know what it feels like.
To be loved,
To be cared for.
So, Am I good enough now?

I waited for you today.
Once again you didn't show.
I don't know why I want it so much.
You care has taught me never to trust anyone.
To rely only on you.
What if there is someone out there?
Someone who knows me.
Someone who is always proud of me,
No matter what I do.

Am I good enough now?
Can I be in your life?
I just want to know what it feels like.
To be loved,
To be cared for.
So, Am I good enough now?

Could you make this any harder?
Where will I go if I don't make the cut?
You planned my life with out my consent.
My life is no longer yours.
I withdraw.

Am I good enough now?
Can I be in your life?
I just want to know what it feels like.
To be loved,
To be cared for.
So, Am I good enough now?

~End~

I wrote this one during a maths test. I wrote it because currently I'm going through the hell of picking subjects for my final years of school. I currently have 13 units, but I'm dropping to 10 or 12 units in year 12. But I wrote it because my mother had started to plan my subjects without asking me, and I'm very protective of my subjects because my school world and my home world are two completely places, and I would like to keep it that way for as long as I can because if they were to collide then that would be a major catastrophe resulting in the eventual kicking out of home. But I was just angry and I thought this was a healthy way to do it by using the wonderful talents that God has given me.

Peace & Love

Your Everything I Am©

Looking for love in all the wrong places.
Searching for a familiar face.
There were fights,
There were tears.
I was bruised on the outside,
I was broken on the inside.
My life was upside down.

Suddenly you come around,
Making me a better life.
Taking control of the uncontrolable
Turning me right side up.

Your everything I am,
You make my heart complete.
When trouble finds me,
Your already there.
Nothing in this world
Could replace my love for you
Because your everything I am.

A blip on the radar screen,
Taken in by the world
Only to be spat back out.
They stole my crown
and raided my dignity
Alone and crushed.

Suddenly you come around,
Making me a new life.
Taking control of the uncontrolable,
Fixing my stinging wounds.

Your everything I am,
You make my heart complete.
When trouble finds me,
Your already there.
Nothing in this world
Could replace my love for you
Because your everything I am.

(Instrumental Solo)

Your everything I am,
You make my heart complete.
When trouble finds me,
Your already there.
Nothing in this world
Could replace my love for you
Because your everything I am.

I wrote this after it came to me at like 10:00 pm. I was inspired by the band that came to school that day (read about it in my other blog http://smiling-at-him.blogspot.com/) And the lead singer whose name is Becky. She was just so cool and well I don't have any words to describe her she is simply that cool. Her faith is so strong and its so encouraging. AND she's from Canada which like triples her cool factor.
Hope you all liked the new song. There is another one soon but I have to finish that. Should be done tonight at some stage...after I finish my Geography Assessment.
Love you all!! <3

PS. You steal...I will find you.

Heartfelt Ballad

I feel something pulling me down.
Taking away my pride and replacing my crown,
When your not around.
But then I see the the signs rising from the water,
Turning me upside down.

Just How Much He Loves Me©

His mercy, His grace.

Nothing could ever replace it.

He took a chance and rescued me.

His love, His tender care are what keep on the ground.

His gave everything for me.

It was there all along, I never wanted to see

Just how much he loves me.

They all said it was fake

How could I make that mistake

But now I see,

Just how much he loves me

My ignorance, and lack of understanding.

The harder I push the more he drew me in.

My hate, my evil.

I was scared to take the chance.

My choice, My life.

It was there all along,

I never wanted to see
Just how much he loves me.
They all said it was fake
How could I make that mistake
But now I see,
Just how much he loves me

He picked me up

Took me with out a sound.

I stripped myself of my pride and of my crown.

Letting the tears fall down my face

He confessed,

It was there all along,

I never wanted to see

Just how much he loves me.

They all said it was fake

How could I make that mistake

But now I see,

Just how much he loves me.


This is a song I wrote just now infact as I was watching YouTube (Go YouTube!!) I was actually watching two songs from my (currently) favourite band. They were at first a kiddy band but now they are writing some really good songs, with some really profound lyrics. The songs are called 'Your Smile' and 'Flying Away'. Both songs are by 'The Naked Brothers Band, oh and don't worry they are fully clothed... But this particular song is written for a guy who will never ever give up on me and what ever I do he will only love me more. His name is God.

DON'T STEAL! I OWN THESE

Losing Her©

It's been a while since we talked.

It's been a while since being with you cured it all.

Where did it all go wrong?

When did it become so hard just to be your friend?

You make me feel so out of place,

You take what you want and

Don't realise who you are hurting.

It's so hard talking to you.

Why did everything have to change?

You moved on leaving us all behind.

I didn't want anything to change

You make out like you were someone who cared

You embarrassed us all.

Look at yourself,

smirking your way through.

Your unbelievable the way you kill us all just to be you.

This was my first real attempt at some poetry. It probably isn't very good, but I wrote it when I was going through a hard time with my one of my friends. She didn't know that I was having these problems but it was just kind of a mental thing. I wrote it originally as song lyrics but I dont think that is going to work out, I just write the musical part of a song. I hope you enjoy it. I dedicate this to anyone who is having problems with anyone that they were previously close to, or people who just like depressing poetry.
