.
Living fast and running wild,
They say it was just my youth;
Traveling around searching for Truth,
Still I was confused;
Vanity raging words that aren't true,
A smile that's not from my heart;
Shining my pride and living a lie,
Still further we're drifting apart;
I tried to love, but I didn't know how,
You can't give a gift you've never received;
Closing my eyes, He took my hand,
Softly He whispered to me;
Now like a "prodigal son" I'm finding my way,
Coming home to stay;
You know I want to be your hands,
I want to see through your eyes,
I want to speak your words with no compromise;
My mind is ready, rearranging,
My heart is open, I feel the change and,
My life is so much better than before.

the holes in your old shoes.
Smiling
The finest thing you do for me
Of so many
Is make me think another way
When I get tangled up in private worlds of words.
Why
by Mandy Moore
And it's sad, but true
I enjoy wasting you
Watching you fade with the night
I corrode your soul
Like you tried with my body
