Burning Out

The silent thoughts that break the day
The stone that carries your name
Flowers in the shade
The light out in the haze
And I'm burning out
Candles flicker through the silk
The voice that gives me chills
Stranger in the dark
A shadow from afar
And I'm burning I'm burning out
I'm burning out
You lied to me
And I can see right through you
Your words are empty as your heart
You lied to me
And I can see right through you
Your words are empty as your heart
You cold nothing
The breath I take with pain I've known
To ships that don't come home
Fire in the sun
I'm not the only one no
And I'm burning out
Your eyes staring deep within
A bedroom stained with sin
Cold is where I lay
Ashamed in misery
And I'm burning I'm burning out
I'm burning out
You lied to me
And I can see right through you
Your words are empty as your heart
You lied to me
And I can see right through you
Your words are shaking me to the core cold nothing
You lied to me
And I can see right through you
Your words are empty as your heart cold nothing
You lied to me
And I can see right through you
Your words are empty as your heart
You cold nothing
You cold nothing
You cold nothing....

Every time I take a breath I feel, I feel alive
Every time I look up to the sky oh I, I feel alive
And I know there will come a day when things will change and
I know there will come a day I'll have to face
Every time I take a breath I feel, I feel alive
And I am not ready to say goodbye
I'm not ready today
I am not ready to say goodbye
I'm not ready to die
Every time I take a step I feel, I feel alive
Every time I touch my skin, I oh I, I feel alive
And I know I can't take another day of this
This pain its killing me its just such s***t
Every time I touch my skin I, I feel alive yeah yeah
And I am not ready to say goodbye
I'm not ready today
I am not ready to say goodbye
I'm not ready to die
Every time I write a song I feel, I feel alive
Every time I sing to you I feel, I feel alive yeah yeah
And I am not ready to say goodbye
I'm not ready today
I am not ready to say goodbye
I'm not ready to die
And I am not ready to say goodbye
I'm not ready today
I am not ready to say goodbye
I'm not ready to die

The Road Home

Is there anywhere I can go from here
Is there any light to shine the road home
Can I count my steps to find the way
Can I take a breath I need to breathe
Someday I will find you again And we will be always
Someday I will find you again And we will be always
Is there any place for me Is there anybody out there Is there anything to see Is there anybody out there –out there Is there anywhere I can go from here Is there any light to shine the road home

Water From Leaves
03:48

|
She walks down the street staring at the pavement
Everybody’s walking by her no one pays attention
And everything she ever does was so kind yet goes unnoticed
She only has herself escapes into the forest..
I'm the girl in the trees
My feet bare and running
Around as I please
I'm never on the ground
I'm kissing water from leaves
Before the drops hit the sand
In the forest I'm free ohh ohh ohh
She asks the kids to play
Gets laughed at pushed back pushed away
Sticks stones and all alone
Bullied from the children and bullied from home and
She runs a way from the day breaker star makers
Running faster climb higher through the trees you know you are…
I'm the girl in the trees
My feet bare and running
Around as I please
I'm never on the ground
I'm kissing water from leaves
Before the drops hit the sand
In the forest I'm free ohh ohh ohh
She dreams of scraped knees from the bark of her trees and
She needs to escape to run to and hide away....
I'm the girl in the trees
My feet bare and running
Around as I please
I'm never on the ground
I'm kissing water from leaves
Before the drops hit the sand
In the forest I'm free
I'm the girl in the trees
My feet bare and running
Around as I please
I'm never on the ground
I'm kissing water from leaves
Before the drops hit the sand
In the forest I'm free

Be strong my friend
It won't be long - before
Everything will come together
You just hold on
These things take time - before
Everything will get better so…
Don't be afraid of
Time that is wasted
Your mind is invaded
It's never clear it's never clear
You are you are
Everything you fight for
You are you are
Everything you strive for
You are you are
Everything you believe
You are you are
Live your life my friend
You'll start to think - before
You realize there's something better
You just hold tight don't let it go - before
This life will come together so…
Don't be afraid of
Time that is wasted
Your mind is invaded
It's never clear it's never clear
You are you are
Everything you fight for
You are you are
Everything you strive for
You are you are
Everything you believe
You are you are
Don't be afraid of
Time that is wasted
Your mind is invaded
It's never clear it's never clear
You are you are
Everything you fight for
You are you are
Everything you strive for
You are you are
Everything you believe
You are you are…

Time never cease to amaze me
Drives me crazy all my life
I wish I could stop the hands
Make amends do what’s right
Do what’s right
Do what’s right
Make your stories a memory
A legacy you leave behind
Take a peace of this emptiness
Find what’s left of it
And hold on tight
Hold on tight
Cause everybody needs a way to shine
Everybody needs to take there time
Everybody needs a way to love
Reach inside release the dove..
Please well I can’t change the past
If I could I take some back
To ease the pain
And I’m traveling down this empty road
Trying to find what once was home
But I can’t go back
Can’t go back
Cause everybody needs a way to shine
Everybody needs to take there time yeah
Everybody needs a way to love
Reach inside release the dove..
Time never cease to amaze me
Drives me crazy all my life
I wish I could stop the hands
Make amends do what’s right
Do what’s right
Do what’s right

Bethany Sky Whitman Fort Lauderdale, Florida
I have been creating art and music since I was about 7 years old. I don't really know if I can say it's some kind of escape from reality for me or if it's just a part of what makes me feel whole and alive. What I can say is that I am driven to create without boundaries. ... more
