Just an update

Haven't posted anything in a while. Been practicing the songs already written and not writing lately. But I assure you all, I'm sure I'll get a spark and write something new sometime in the near future. Just an update for now since I haven't been writing. Soon though, I'm sure I'll blow you all away...heh yeah right

The Straightlaced Rebellion: Part 3: The Ocean Calls Back to Me

The Ocean calls back to me
And sometimes i visit that terrible Sea
It's not that i even want to go
But often it seems I have no control
I feel everything around me
The salt air smelling so familiar
And for more than just a second
I feel like jumping in
Then You call my name
And I pretend not to notice
Then You call my name
And I can't help but notice...

The Straightlaced Rebellion: Part 2: The Sea of Despair

Drowning in a Sea of Despair
I reached for a small raft
There was enough to sustain me there
But I longed just to go Home
Open water so deep
I even heard it in my sleep
Then one day a thought occurred to me
Why am I letting this be?
My signal soared into the sky
Bright and moonlit in my eyes
And in the distance...
I heard a horn cry

The Straightlaced Rebellion: Part one: I'd rather run

Running away
On a ship to some Nineveh
Sleeping through storms
Instead of choosing
Your voice faded to a whisper
Lost in the winds of my mind
But You never really left did You?
I simply couldn't see the works of Your hand
Your writing on the wall
the focus of Your plan
And in my blindness I jumped ship
Headlong into disaster
