…[are you] getting something wrong [?]
Like there’s a way you’re supposed to be that you haven’t figured out…
…
…either it’s all pretend, just emotions all stirred up
or there’s some deficiency in you, like you’re not spiritual enough
God is in no hurry
You can take your time
Trusting that the process is part of the design
[God] loves you where you are, not where you “should” be
…
You can try and force yourself into being what you’re not…
I don’t think God…has to be so hard to find
…God is in the things You Love
so linger there awhile
Following the path of What Makes You Come Alive
God loves you where you are, not where you “should” be
God is in no hurry
God loves you as you are,
not as you “should” be
Do you ever feel the bite
Of the wolves that haunt the night…
Do you ever hate the sting
Of feeling everything…
Cross your heart and hope to die
Look that monster in the eye
Hold on lightning
Don't close your eyes when it's frightening
Let that thunder grow
Through the ages
You open up all the cages and
Hold that spirit
Hold that spirit close
Have you ever felt alone
In the shadow of your home…
Have you ever felt like you
Could fall and slip right through…
Cross your heart and hope to die
Look that monster in the eye
Hold on lightning
Don't close your eyes when it's frightening
Let that thunder grow
Through the ages
You open up all the cages and
Hold that spirit
Hold that spirit close…
Cross your heart and hope to die
Look that monster in the eye
Cross your heart and hope to die
Look that monster in the eye…
Hold on lightning
Don't close your eyes when it's frightening
Let that thunder grow
Through the ages
We open up all the cages and
Hold that spirit
Hold that spirit close
Hold that spirit close

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free
Blackbird, fly
Blackbird, fly
Into the light of the dark black night
Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly (learn to fly, learn to fly)
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

(from “Black Sheep” by MILCK)
Black sheep, cryin' those rebel tears
It's a battle to survive these lonely years
Black sheep, you live up to your name
You've been told for way too long that you're the one to blame
You never mean to hurt yourself or anyone around you
But trouble's like a curse, a curse you didn't choose
The house you're in is like a cage, the walls and floor rage
It's hard to breathe, but hard to leave
Look up, you’re not alone
You’ll make a home of your own
Don’t let anyone turn your unique into flaws
Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are
Take those sticks and stones and make a home of your own
Every warrior grows from her battles and scars
Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are…
Dear black sheep
It runs deep, it's insatiable
That hunger to be seen and to be understood
Black sheep, they call me that, too
I've wrestled with the dark, but I made it through
And so will you
Look up, you’re not alone
You’ll make a home of your own
Don’t let anyone turn your unique into flaws
Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are
Take those sticks and stones and make a home of your own
Every warrior grows from her battles and scars
Yeah, you know that I love you the way that you are
Black sheep…
The house you build,
It will be safe and be full of light and space
You'll finally breathe, my dear black sheep
Look up, you're not alone, you'll make a home of your own
Don’t let anyone turn your unique into flaws
….you know that I love you the way that you are
Take those sticks and stones (sticks and stones)
And make a home of your own (all of your own)
Every warrior grows from her battles and scars
And you know that I love you the way that you are
And you know that I love you the way that you are
…you know that I love you the way that you are

I could tell you the truth
But you'd call me a liar…
Tried to wave a white flag
But you set it on fire
You cry, they don't
Every single night
That's how you know
You gotta let it go
Sometimes you just can't fix it
You love somebody…
But you gotta let 'em go
Before you go down with them
Can't love somebody who loves burning bridges
…
I used "Sorry" to keep you
And that was my error…
'Cause I tore me apart
Tryna hold us together
You cry, they don't
Every single night
That's how you know
You gotta let it go
Sometimes you just can't fix it
You love somebody…
But you gotta let 'em go
Before you go down with them…
You cry, they don't
That's how you know
You cry, they don't
That's how you know
You gotta let it go
Sometimes you just can't fix it
You love somebody, love somebody
But you gotta let 'em go
Before you go down with them
Can't love somebody who loves burning bridges
You cry, they don't
That's how you know
White knuckles
And sweaty palms from hangin' on too tight
Clenched shut jaw
I've got another headache again tonight
Eyes on fire…
And they burn from all the tears
I've been cryin', I've been cryin'
I've been dying over you
Tie a knot in the rope
Tryin' to hold, tryin' to hold
But there's nothing to grasp
So I let go
I think I finally had enough
I think maybe I think too much
I think this might be it for us
Blow me one last kiss
You think I'm just too serious…
My head is spinning, so…
I think that life's too short for this
Want back my ignorance and bliss
I think I've had enough of this…
I won't miss
All of the fighting
That we always did
Take it in
I mean what I say when I say "there is nothing left"
…No more battles from me
I think I've finally had enough
I think I maybe think too much
I think this might be it for us
Blow me one last kiss
…
Just when it can't get worse…
…I think I’ve had enough of this
…
…All the lies, all the why's
Will all be crystal clear
I think I've finally had enough
I think I maybe think too much
I think this might be it for us…
…
I think that life's too short for this…
…I've had enough of this
(from “Blow Me (One Last Kiss),”
song by Pink —> the full song is more “gritty”. Just a warning— it’s not for everyone’s tastes)
We stand in long lines waitin' for a ticket
To see paradise for just one minute
I thought I saw you walk away
I thought I knew you well
Stay on your good side, say what you wanna hear
Bend over backwards and shut up until I disappear
You'd never change for anyone…
And I give my love, but it's not enough
Now this feels like a waste of time
Then you fall from a height
Or we both could dive
Oh, what did you have in mind?
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
To make you feel alive
I pay a high price
I give myself away
You'd never think twice to ever do the same
And in the half-light we were glorious
I crumble every time
And I give my love, but it's not enough
Now this feels like a waste of time
Then you fall from a height
Or we both could dive
Oh, what did you have in mind?
I chase the landslide to keep you on my side
Now I'm holdin' a flatline to make you feel alive
