HELP Hard to reach out when you don’t care if you’re alone Everyday seems the same pushing the same stone Lately it only feels like you’re just going down Probably just stay here, don’t wanna be around Hard to see light when darkness is all that is found Every day it seems worse but you know that you won’t make a sound Lately it seems that no matter what- you’re all alone Please know that there’s hope so please pick up the phone ahh we all have someone who loves we all have someone who needs we all have someone someone someone

Shots ring out Before the bell Children shout The clink of shells Hit the ground Where bodies lie Stick around And you will die Life cut short By flying lead The new sport Losing your head This madness When will it end This sadness The latest trend You put your rights Above theirs But you’re gen'rously offering Thoughts and prayers Tears they fall But make no sound Bodies small Litter the ground Don’t ask why Get no redress More will die We will regress You put your rights Above theirs But you’re gen'rously offering Thoughts and prayers Your NRA is paying fares And you’re chipping in with Thoughts and prayers You put your lives Above theirs But at least you’re sending Thoughts and prayers

Monday morning started like an ordinary day Grabbed my book and headed off to math Sounds of bullets ringing, shouts over the crowd What the hell is happening now Click click bang and the bodies fall Screams of pain echo down the halls This is supposed to be a place Where we grow into adults Not a bloody grave for our friends This madness has to end! How much is too much how many more? Arming teachers have you lost your mind? How can politicians attack our wounded youth What the hell is happening, marching for the truth Click click bang Hear the bodies fall Screams of pain echo down the halls This is supposed to be a place Where we grow into adults Not a bloody grave for our friends This madness has to end! NRA, gun control, Lives at stake, guns take a toll Why is it, no other place Puts children lives at stake For what? Money For what? the NRA0 0000 Fuck you and fuck your guns I’ll take our daughters and sons Click click bang Hear the bodies fall Screams of pain echo down the halls This is supposed to be a place Where we grow into adults Not a bloody grave for our friends This madness has to end!

Slow down You’re running wild with no sign of giving up In time it wears you down Slow down You’re always burning the candle at both ends You know you can’t go on, no you can’t go on forever Enjoy a little time for yourself Don’t let this world get you down Slow down Rest well and take good care of yourself Stop what you’re doing and breathe in for a moment Slow down I must admit I do it some myself Every day seems like I’m running out of time Take a break some sleep will do you good Get away from it all every once in a while Enjoy a little time for yourself Don’t let this world get you down

I'm sure that something's missing And no one seems to care Certainly I'm losing limbs Society is unaware I feel like a leper Whose symptoms do not show I'd almost cut off my own foot So that way you would know But I don't have the proper tools To do the procedure Just dimly lit hallway rooms And a bottle of ether I can't ask for help That's part of this disease It won't let me raise my hand Ask for what I need Some days it's hard to fight I need help to find a cure That's why I'm writing you this letter Why you're reading these words Please offer a hand To those that might need it Cause they may be a leper Even if you don't see it

She just wants to keep on learning Like she did not long ago But now it is just a yearning Kept at home by nature's flow No suburban mother's cabinet Exists within a hundred miles No corner store to grab some tampons. The scraps they have don't work for long enough to leave Without always she she is stuck at home she falls behind Without always she just drops out of school While the world keeps flowing by

v1: I cursed my brother on the highway He didn't keep up my speed Even though he was going my way Somehow I felt the need To ruin his day, and while I was at it, I took a shot at mine Yeah, I really let him have it Had to keep us in line ch: Would it kill us to show some civility 'Cause it seems we've lost the ability To love out neighbors, at least the ones who don't look like we do We'll answer later, but I don't think that's what Jesus would do v2: We only love the ones That love us right back We're sticking to our guns We've really got a knack Of holding tight to our agendas And building up our walls I think it's time that we should end this Before we lose it all ch: Would it kill us to show some civility 'Cause it seems like we've lost the ability To love out neighbors, at least the ones who don't think like we do We'll answer later, but I don't think that's what Jesus would do br: I don't think that our dialogue lifts up our fellow man Are we loving each other the best that we can? And are these verbal slings & arrows part of our God-forsaken plan? v3: We go to church every Sunday Or at least for 3 of 4 They say Jesus will come back someday Can't imagine what for We pick the parts of the story That tend to suit our needs We get carried away in glory But we're too lazy to sow the seeds

She Disappeared Sometimes your Words don’t mean a thing sometimes your words mean everything you know your alone and your frozen in your room Sometimes words are meant to be cruel Sometimes from friends sometimes at school You can’t hide the pain and your hurting all the same She disappeared behind her closed door She disappeared no one ever saw her face anymore They hanging ribbons on her door They’re laying flowers on her floor Nobody knows where she’s gone or where she’s wandered to Sometimes you think don’t fit in Sometimes they won’t let you join in you sit and wait your turn and feel like a fool She disappeared behind her closed door She disappeared no one ever saw her face anymore She disappeared behind her closed door She disappeared no one ever saw her face anymore Sometimes your words don’t mean a thing sometimes your words mean everything you know your alone and your frozen in your room She disappeared behind her closed door She disappeared behind her closed door She disappeared behind her closed door She disappeared no one ever saw her face anymore

Open your eyes, yes you, you are beautiful. The birds in the sky, sing out, ring out, lovely musicals. Kiss the nighttime goodbye, the sun sheds light for a view to all. Soooo...Toss off the covers, and hop out of bed, make way for some warm, joyous thoughts in your head cause’ you’ll seeeeee, you just have to believeeee. That, one day; Today, life’s changing for better. Just keep your chin held high; if in your mind, you feel under the weather. It’s my pleasure to say, have a wonderful day, throw a smile on your face, repeat after me: “Dear Almighty, I pray that you lead...me not astraaaay.” So find faith and you’ll seeeee, you’ve just got to believe. Don’t let a soul tell you different, there’s beauty in your pigment and sheeeeen. Preach these words and agree. “Today, I’ll strive to be better. Just a little more clever. No more worries can fester. As soon as stress starts to pester, simply breathe. Search for silence and peace. If we all work together, we’ll find unworldly treasure. Concrete burdens to feathers. Cheerful news lines and letters; ink pressed trees read no grief. Know the pain, soon will seize. Rest, and go with the breeze. To yourself “I’m unique.” I’ll strive to be better. I just have to believe.” Cause’ if I open up all my heart, fill one’s despair with bright, warm sparks, I’ll know I helped a fellow friend from misery. Could we all learn to share some wealth, with the ones that have none else. It would be a much, much better world. Truly, I believe, with simplicity, it starts with Me.....”

Overjoyed 03:57
It was only just a few years ago. Thought I knew, but really I didn't know. No idea of just how much I could grow. Here I stand, and baby you surely know. I'm overjoyed. Thought I knew, but I didn't understand. Ended up just throwing away my plan. Thankfully, now I'm a better man. Don't you know I'd do it all again. I've overjoyed. This is what real love is all about, I will shout it to the sky. My, oh my, I know I've got it bad. I am such a lucky guy. I do not deserve what you give to me. You rescued me out of my misery. Now I realize how it used to be. Never going back for you set me free. I'm overjoyed. I'm overjoyed. I do not deserve what you give to me. You rescued me out of my misery. Now I realize how it used to be. Never going back for you set me free. I'm overjoyed. I'm overjoyed.

about

Write a PSA or “awareness song.” A song that brings attention to a specific subject matter. This can be very specific, like Macklamore’s “Same Love,” or you can go more abstract like Sarah McLachlan’s “Angel.” Also the subject is wide open; From anti-bullying, to pro-equality, to suicide prevention, to mental health awareness, to cancer awareness, to animal rights, the possibilities are endless and the choice is yours. Up tempo, down tempo, genre, style, all up to you.
