Inspiration can be very painful at times, but I still have to follow it.
My shirt was literally drenched in tears the night I wrote this song:



My Cross To Bear

Im not sure what just happened
I cant believe my ears
My heart was just on fire
Now its choking back the tears

Yesterday I thought Id found a lifetime dream come true
Today Im left in ruins and I dont know what to do

Staring at the ceiling
As time creeps slowly by
I turn my face into my pillow
And I begin to cry

(Chorus)
Oh Lord, if you can hear me
Take this pain away
Replace it with the joy I had
And make it soon, I pray
Dont let me go another day
Without knowing that she cares
This love that holds me captive
Is just my cross to bear

I can still remember
The first night when we met
She had a voice that made me listen
And a smile I cant forget

She has a way of bringing out the best of whats in me
The songs that tell the stories and the hopes of what could be

Now Im left with questions
And I dont know where I stand
Shes slipping through my fingers God
Like tiny grains of sand

(Chorus)
