The God That Soothes

A sleep
A friend
A sign.
I know that it is what God wants,
Isn't it?
I guess I just don't trust Him enough.
I confronted you.
I am the one that cannot forgive.
I am the one that's holding on.
Please let what they're going through
Be God's will.
Lord, take this sourness away from me.

Trying

Trying so hard to be happy for you,
But how can I, with the pain there is.
Who caused it, we are all to blame
In part. But it is such a shame
That you trust him every bit as much as I did.
He told you all the same things that he told me.
Partial lies.
Partial truths.
And it is none of my business anymore
I am gone.
Leaving
My life here is over.
Over.
I am gone.
Leaving.

A Memory

He drifts through my mind
Like a boat on the lake,
The wondering prisms
Of this ache, this ache...

A Song

by K M Radley

I am the moon child, circling the skies
Wait to realize how I need you.

I am the moon child, hold you in my hand
Brush me like the sand from your shoe.

Sailing on the wind in a milk white gown,
Dropping circle stones on a sundail

Realizing that I cannot run, no I cannot run
You'd catch me after a while.

The ghosts of DAWN will find me there....
The reapers named their harvest DAWN.

So, whoa, hold me. Just hold me a little while.
My sun child.
Hold me, just hold me a little while.
Sun child. Sun child...sunchild.

Melodrama

Like apricots on a silent sea,
Like the sun rising in the distant hills
Like the mountains moving over ages of time
His eyes smile, his smile haunts me still.

Eye of the Hurricane

C
Tank is full, switch is on
Am7
Night is warm, cops are gone
F+9
Rocket bike is all her own
G
It's called a hurricane
C
She told me once it's quite a ride
Am7
It's shaped so there's this place inside
F+9
Where if you're moving you can hide
G
Safe within the rain

Chorus

F+9 Em6
She wants to run away
G C
But there's nowhere that she can go
F+9 Em6 D9sus4
Nowhere the pain won't come again
F+9 Em6
But she can hide
G C
Hide in the pouring rain
F+9 G C
She rides the eye of the hurricane

F+9 G

Tell the truth, explain to me
How you got this need for speed
She laughed and said "it might just be
The next best thing to love."
Hope is gone and she confessed
When you lay your dream to rest
You can get what's second best
But it's hard to get enough

chorus

Bridge

Am7 G F+9
We saw her ride so fast last night
Am7 G F+9 G
Racing by a flash of light


Riding quick, the street was dark
A shining truck she thought was parked
It blocked her path, stopped her heart
But not the hurricane
She saw her chance to slip the trap
There was just the room to pass in back
But then it moved, closed the gap
She never felt the pain

Chorus

coda

F+9 G C
She rides the eye of a hurricane

C Am7 F+9 G C C
