Feeling down, don’t know why
Heart is cold, feeling nothing
Nothing that can be told
Or reasoned why
Angry most of all at what I don’t recall.
Then there is my head
My mind it’s telling stories full of dread
It saids there is no way things will be right
Just give up, curl up and sleep
Til late tonight.
That’s when my heart beats up
Pounding, ‘Don’t give up!’
I can make it right, deep breath
The rest will come
Before falling of sweet night.
Listen
Hear things dear to your heart
Let your mind wander but don’t let it start
The bad, the sad or that which will taint
The faint of heart.

Hunger so
Need the help
Not sure why.
Please Lord
Let me not die
Holding on to something
That won’t even cry.
Hunger so sad
Cause
Not sure why.

I wonder what was it like
When I was born
Did I cry right away
Or was I compelled?
Did I know what had happened
Was I frightened to be out
Of the only world I’d known
Did I even know where I was?
The answers I don’t know
No one left to tell
Gone are the memories
I may have once held.
The business of new life
Took over and I cried
Sad to be leaving
The soft, warm womb
Where my mother kept me
Safe and alive.
I may not remember
No one left to tell
But I know I was born and
With love I was held.

It’s going to be okay
All this badness will fade away
It’s going to be okay.
Tears will be for not
It’s going to be okay
On this sad but sunny day
I know, I pray
It’s going to be okay.

Beat myself up
Curse the way
That got me here.
Need to let up
Need to be happy
That I’m living, existing
With breath to breathe
In this atmosphere.
Forget the bad, the negative
And the sad
Seeing only pleased
And grateful inside of me.
Forgive me and thee
Forgive and live
Live here
On the right side of happy.

Good news glad
Right there with
Bad news sad
Doesn’t matter cause
It’s the news you have.
Read it, write it
Say it loud
Bad news sad and
Good news glad.
Spread the word
Take it where you have
Good news glad along
With bad news sad.
That’s right
That’s all
That’s all
You have.

Remember when the time was sad
Remember when even so I was glad
Remember when the world was wrong
And I was not very strong.
Remember when the song I sang
Heralded not much of anything
Remember now the good, the bad
Remember not to be so sad
But stay forever very, very glad.
Remember when your life
Unfolded the only way it could
Remember when it was told
The way you should remember.
Remember when time was sad
Remember when you were glad
Remember all this life you had
Remember.

Why does it feel so sad?
This is it, all we have
Cherish it, make it best
Don’t be sad, don’t be mad.
Trust the best
Will come to rest
Here among all
Of your kindness.

My heart is sad and maybe a little mad
Not at the world but my attitude.
Who made me think I could chose
The way to travel thru this universe?
Not alone
Nor will I ever be
Able to master all this
I see before of me.
Be me humble and resolute
I will accomplish this I wish to
With a power greater
Than all of me.
This my heart must accept
For it will race with joy
As I master this
That has been brought
Before of me.
Thank you God
And the Lord above
Without your help
There would be no love.

A monster lives deep beneath
Surging up with saddened grief
Making all ponder where to go
Melancholy persons reaching out
Filled with disbelief that
No remorse can ever share
Feel me now feeling bad
Fill me up with sadness glad
A monster lives deep within
Changing color on a whim.
