(Verse 1) I was hooked right under a spell Every slit got me a step closer to my own hell. 17 years ago you should have seen The way I used to be before I reclaimed me. (PreChorus) It was over, I lost the fight Then darkness faded into light. (Chorus) Rain just downpours blood into my skin Places I have never been Laced with nitroglycerin Now I have escaped the pen. I believe I’ve escaped the pen. (Verse 2) When I started to exile myself From the party, I thought no one wanted me to be well. So I dug deeper into me Letting the blood take off wherever it feels it should be free. (PreChorus) I loved every split second’s bliss Of wanting to never exist. (Chorus) Rain just downpours blood into my skin Places I have never been Laced with nitroglycerin Now I have escaped the pen. Rain just downpours blood into my skin Places I have never been Laced with nitroglycerin XXX X XXXX XXXXXXX XXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXX XXXXXXX XXX XXXX X XXXX XXX XXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXX XXXX XXX XX XXXXXXXXX XX XXXXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXX XXXX XX XXXX XXXXXX X XXXX XXXXX XXXX XXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXX X XXXX XXXXXXX XXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXX XXXX XX XXXX XXXXXX X XXXX XXXXX XXXX XXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX XXX X XXXX XXXXXXX XXX XXXX X XXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXX XXX XXXX X XXXX XXXXXXX XXX XXXX

Dust And Bones

By Karianne Gabaldon


About still being hung up on an ex; he was her everything, then he just up and left. Now it’s nothing but dust and bones.

Blister

By Karianne Gabaldon


This is about schizophrenia and describing it as a “blister” on one’s mind. It’s very dark, depressing you could even say, but it’s the truth. Schizophrenia is a blister.

Here I Lie

By Karianne Gabaldon


A song to raise awareness about the psychosis/mental illness, schizoaffective disorder. It is a very hard and scary illness to cope with, but with knowledge and awareness, we can all pull through.

Danger

By Karianne Gabaldon


A song I wrote about a mentally ill person who hates himself and brings himself down constantly; but I personally think he’s the most amazing thing on earth and if he could just see it… he’s so beautiful; so loving…

One Two Three

By Howard Aronson


I wrote this song in about 20 minutes, it's my latest lyric, and it was inspired by listening to Eric Clapton. I really liked the template for the rhyming that they used, something that I haven't done before and that's when the first line and the last line rhymes and the two middle lines rhyme. I'm trying to write differently using different rhyme schemes, and hopefully write something that has no rhymes at all or very few, and has no sense of sequence for lack of a better word. I think when you hear a song you can tell maybe when the rhyme is going to come, and I want to try to do something when you're reading the lyric, and then you're all sudden surprised by the rhyme. This lyric is about a relationship that's coming to an end. Nobody's talking and through all the silence, there's a good chance that this is going to start a huge argument one person knows that they can't do it anymore that they just had it, and they pretty much know what's going on I came up with the chorus just on a whim. I wanted to do something catchy, but not to juvenile. I mean this isn't a nursery rhyme like the one that says pick Up sticks, as I really can't remember it verbatim it was so long ago.

Let All Redeemed

By Stanley Chris


The death of Christ on the Cross ushered us into liberty from the bondage of sin. The icing on the cake is that His ministry didn't end there; He lives on as our High Priest before the Father, interceding for us daily in order that He may present us to God blameless on the last day (1 Thessalonians 5:23). What a Gospel, one so glorious that He has entrusted us to take its message to those in our worlds so that they too can receive the blessings of its truth; to bring them home to love, faith and hope, the three eternal principles of the Kingdom (1 Corinthians 13:13). The other mind-blowing reality of this is that we have been raised with Christ to a position of authority where we rule in victory in His Name (Ephesians 2:4-6). These are the themes expressed in this song, and the Bridge invites all to bring high praise to the risen King who brought us back to God, and defeated man's greatest fear: the sting of deaths.

Adieu

By Sherab Lhamo


A song in which love is compared to fighting a losing battle. War here is the relationship while the battles are the feelings. It’s when you do everything you can and realize there’s nothing left to give. So you accept defeat and bid farewell
