The Voyage of Beliefs~FM Static wrote:I have 2 brothers and a sister, and a mother,
And a father who taught us that we should
All love one another,
We go to church on Sunday,
In a little green Hyundai,
Have some grape juice and crackers,
Then we start again on Monday
And it’s all fine, and it’s all well,
I really want to find what I believe for myself,
‘Cause when you’re gone,
And I’m still here,
I won’t have you to tell me that I should be there
I’m tired of making excuses(oh oh oh),
Need to decide for myself…
What if I stumble? What if I fall?
When I’m on my way to You,
What if I need You? Who do I call?
How do I know I’ll get through?
Because I don’t wanna ride the fence anymore.
I wanna stand up, and shout it,
And let it be known
I have 2 fathers, and a sister and a brother,
And a mother who taught us that we should
All do unto others,
My homeroom teacher, always talks about her preacher
And she says she talks to God,
But I don’t know if I believe her
And it’s all fine, and it’s all well,
I really want to find what I believe for myself,
‘Cause when you’re gone,
And I’m still here,
I won’t have you to tell me that I should be there
I’m tired of making excuses(oh oh oh),
Need to decide for myself…
What if I stumble? What if I fall?

What if I need You? Who do I call?
How do I know I’ll get through?
Because I don’t wanna ride the fence anymore.
I wanna stand up, and shout it,
And let it be known
And you can tell me,
That I can’t make a difference ‘cause I’m just one,
But one is all it takes to start it
And you can tell me,
That I can’t change the world,
Because I’m too young,
But I won’t stand here and be your target
And you can push me,
And try to knock me down, but I won’t listen,
‘Cause I’ve got nothing left to lose and,
You can hate me, for everything I’m not,
But it won’t change this,
‘Cause now that I’m here, I’m not moving
I’m tired of making excuses(oh oh oh),
Need to decide for myself…
What if I stumble? What if I fall?
When I’m on my way to You,
What if I need You? Who do I call?
How do I know I’ll get through?
Because I don’t wanna ride the fence anymore.
I wanna stand up, and shout it,
And let it be known
Her Father's Song~FM Static wrote:I saw the rain fall down today,
Watch lightning crash through skies of grey,
Why can’t life just be polite, and wait…
I saw the lights outside your house,
Red lights cut like nothin’ else,
The scene of a silent cry for help
How are we supposed to do this?
If everyone we love, still lets us down,
If you’re there, can you hear me now?
No matter how hard I try,
Can’t get you out of my mind,
Wish I could be there to help you say goodbye
Don’t hold it inside, ‘cause what’s left can be right,
What’s left can be right
I saw the sky go black today,
I felt your tears, and ached your pain,
It’s hard to tell how much this changed,
How you see everything
And all I can do is pray,
That you don’t take the blame,
‘Cause it’s not your fault, that it happened this way,
Happened this way
How are we supposed to do this?
If everyone we love, still lets us down,
If you’re there, can you hear me now?
No matter how hard I try,
Can’t get you out of my mind,
Wish I could be there to help you say goodbye
Don’t hold it inside, ‘cause what’s left can be right,
What’s left can be right
Take Me As I Am~FM Static wrote:This time I finally see the reason why
I can’t do this alone
It took some time and concentration
To believe it,
This I know
I need to build my faith sometimes
But I am so comfortable in line,
I’m up, there’s no more time,
To try to mess with this design
Tonight’s complete,
Everyone’s asleep,
And I wanna say these words to You
I’ll be Your hands,
Take me as I am,
I just wanna be with You
Take me as I am,
‘Cause I’m goin’,
I was too scared to start,
And now I’m too scared to let go
Take me as I am,
‘Cause I’m growin’,
But it’s so hard to tell
When I’m not used to this so
I lift my voice to sing out,
Let the sound of my heart ring out
These hands aren’t holdin’ me down,
Never again will I be without
I need to build my faith sometimes
But I am so comfortable in line,
I’m up, there’s no more time,
To try to mess with this design
Tonight’s complete,
Everyone’s asleep,
And I wanna say these words to You
I’ll be Your hands,
Take me as I am,
I just wanna be with You
Take me as I am,
‘Cause I’m goin’,
I was too scared to start,
And now I’m too scared to let go
Take me as I am,
‘Cause I’m growin’,
But it’s so hard to tell
When I’m not used to this so

Hating,
Waiting,
For some place where I can fit in.
Show me,
Grow me,
Hold me,
'Till my balance starts to set in.
Notice a little trend? Ok, so I'm obsessed with Dear Diary! It's just so amazing!!
