The grass used to be a luscious green,
But now that beauty cannot be seen.
The ground and water have gone dry,
Because there is no moisture in the sky.
...
Hate and prejudice are traits that are learned,
And because of that so many people get burned.
They live their lives by the way they're taught,
Never realizing all the hatred they have brought.
...
As I follow in his footsteps, I know he’ll lead the way.
I get closer to heaven with every passing day.
I’m on the path of righteousness, leading toward the Lord.
Praying and listening as He speaks his mighty word.
...
As I look out into the strange world,
I have no idea what to expect.
And as I see the dangers surround me,
I wonder who'll be there to protect.
...
I rolled into a one horse town,
Looking for a place to settle down.
I left the big city life behind,
Hoping for a new life I could find.
...
Now that your mother has become my wife,
You will always be a big part of my life.
I know I could never take your dad's place,
But in your heart I hope you have a space.
...
When you hold my hand it is my heart,
And that is where I will want to start.
If you’re the one to ever feel the pain,
It is my tears that will fall like the rain.
...
It's nearly impossible to face reality,
As you cross the bridge to insanity.
When you head out into the unknown,
It's a journey that you must take alone.
...
You've been through heartache and hell,
Because so many others just couldn't tell,
Your heart is bigger than they realize,
But they just would never open their eyes.
...
With a terrified look upon his face,
I wonder what he’s doing in this place.
There are bombs exploding and bullets flying,
He’s curled up in a corner scared and crying.
...
