The Ballad of Pastor John (A Folk Song of Rise and Ruin) (Verse 1 – Slow & Solemn) Oh, gather ‘round and hear the tale, of Pastor John so bold, A preacher man with silver tongue, who turned his words to gold. He built a flock, he raised a shrine, he swore he’d lead the way, But oh, the sins that hide in light would drag his soul away. (Chorus – Catchy & Haunting) Ohhh, Pastor John, where’d you run? Your kingdom’s dust, your name’s undone. The law came knockin’, the truth came down, Now you're breathin’ deep in a border town. (Verse 2 – Midtempo, Driving Beat) He claimed the Lord had shown him signs, a vision pure and bright, But in the dark, he chased a high, a different kind of light. A sacred jar, a breath so foul, he called it holy grace, And one by one, his faithful bowed to seek that sweet embrace. (Chorus – Repeated, More Energy) Ohhh, Pastor John, where’d you run? Your kingdom’s dust, your name’s undone. The law came knockin’, the truth came down, Now you're breathin’ deep in a border town. (Bridge – Stripped Down, Reflective Tone) They dragged his name through fire and stone, The temple fell, he stood alone. No prayer could save, no gold could buy, So south he fled beneath the sky. (Verse 3 – Final Verse, Slow & Wistful) Now in the heat of Mexico, he sits with jar in hand, A fallen king, a faded man, just sippin’ on the sand. No hymns remain, no flock to kneel, just whispers on the breeze, A preacher lost, a lesson told, to bring the proud to their knees. (Final Chorus – Haunting & Drawn Out) Ohhh, Pastor John, where’d you run? Your kingdom’s dust, your time is done. The law came knockin’, the truth came down, Now you're breathin’ deep in a border town. (Outro – Fades into the night…)

Verse 1 I’m trying to get over you But nothing works no matter what I do Tonight I’m hoping something gives But it’s like raising the dead and making it live Got my windows down cruisin in the wind Hoping I can clean up the mess I’m in Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow Verse 2 It ain’t like you didn’t tell me How you’d feel if I done you wrong But I didnt listen to what you said Now im putting the words into this song What I should of told you all along How much you mean to me Just wasn’t enough to not make you leave Cause my actions were louder And that’s what you see Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow Bridge I hope your doing better these days Found you a man who makes you wanna stay Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow
Verse 1 I’m trying to get over you But nothing works no matter what I do Tonight I’m hoping something gives But it’s like raising the dead and making it live Got my windows down cruisin in the wind Hoping I can clean up the mess I’m in Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow Verse 2 It ain’t like you didn’t tell me How you’d feel if I done you wrong But I didnt listen to what you said Now im putting the words into this song What I should of told you all along How much you mean to me Just wasn’t enough to not make you leave Cause my actions were louder And that’s what you see Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow Bridge I hope your doing better these days Found you a man who makes you wanna stay Chorus That’s what they don’t tell you When you break a woman’s heart Your left trying to put back together What you tore a part But it don’t work like it use to There’s a scar because of you I would’ve done better if I knew What I know now I wish I could unbreak your heart somehow

Verse 1) Sunrise paintin' the lake gold, mist hangin' on the trees Got my old hat pulled down low, feelin' that mornin' breeze Truck's parked down by the river bend, coffee steamin' in my hand Another day of castin' lines, in this promised land (Chorus) Yeah, fishin' ain't just fishin', it's a medicine for the soul Leavin' all my worries behind, lettin' the river take control Got my grandpa's tackle box, and a memory in every lure Out here chasin' silver flashes, 'til my hands are raw and sore (Verse 2) Little bobber dancin' on the water, listenin' to the cicadas sing Thinkin' 'bout my daddy's stories, and the lessons fishin' brings Patience is a virtue, that's what he always said But sometimes you gotta change your bait, or you'll wind up with nothin' instead (Chorus) Yeah, fishin' ain't just fishin', it's a medicine for the soul Leavin' all my worries behind, lettin' the river take control Got my grandpa's tackle box, and a memory in every lure Out here chasin' silver flashes, 'til my hands are raw and sore (Bridge) Maybe I'll catch a trophy bast , maybe just a little brim But the size don't really matter, it's the peace I find within This water holds a history, secrets whispered on the breeze A connection to somethin' bigger, beneath these willow trees (Chorus) Yeah, fishin' ain't just fishin', it's a medicine for the soul Leavin' all my worries behind, lettin' the river take control Got my grandpa's tackle box, and a memory in every lure Out here chasin' silver flashes, 'til my hands are raw and sore

I got this pain across my body. I feel guilty because the staff told me off. It is not my fault someone blamed me
[verse 1] I don’t need the stars, I don’t need the gold, All I ever wanted was a hand to hold. Through the highs and lows, through the darkest night, You were there, you were my light. [Chorus] No matter where we go, no matter what we do, I’ll stand beside you, I’ll always choose you. The world may change, but one thing stays, I’ll love you now and all my days. [verse 2] They said love fades, that hearts grow cold, But here we are, still holding on strong. Through every storm, through every fight, We find our way back every time. [verse 3] When the road is hard, and the nights are long, I’ll be right here, where I belong. Through all the pain, through all the tears, We’ll face it together, no more fears. [Bridge] Even if the skies turn gray, Even if the road gets tough, As long as I have you, I know that’s enough.
(Verse 1) Thought we were solid, thought we were real Laughed at the same jokes, made the same deals But turns out I was just another name In your book of people you love to blame (Pre-Chorus) You smile so sweet but talk so cruel Twist the truth, make me the fool Played the victim, played me too Guess that’s just what you do (Chorus) You were never really on my side Just a shadow, just a lie Now I see right through your face You’re just another fake friend, fake friend (Verse 2) All those days, all those nights I thought we had something right But you took, and you took Never cared what you broke (Bridge) Now you stand there, acting fine Like you never crossed the line But I’m done, I’m done with you Go rewrite your story, make it new (Outro) meanie, meanie girl Yeah, that’s all you’ve ever been
Verse 1) In the quiet whispers of the dawn, I wake to face the day alone With a weight upon my soul, so heavy, like a boulder thrown And in the mirror's reflection, I see the shadows of my pain A heart so weary, it's a burden I can't bear, a heavy, heavy chain The world outside is spinning, but I'm stuck in this abyss The pressure's growing stronger, it's like the Earth is shaking, I can't dismiss The whispers of the masses, the expectations never cease I'm just trying to find my balance, but it's all I can do to breathe (Chorus) It's so heavy, I can't bear the wait This feeling like the world is caving in, it's hard to relate The pain inside my heart is a silent scream But through the ruins of my doubt, I'll find the strength to dream (Verse 2) The walls are closing in, the ceiling's much too low I'm carrying this mountain, feeling like it's going to grow The weight of untold stories, the fears I dare not show It's so heavy, I can't bear the wait, for the moment it lets go In the chaos of the city, amidst the deafening roar I'm just a tiny speck, a whisper in the wind that soars But deep within the silence, I can hear the sweet refrain Of a hopeful melody that's trying to break free from the chain (Chorus) It's so heavy, I can't bear the wait This feeling like the world is caving in, it's hard to relate The pain inside my heart is a silent scream But through the ruins of my doubt, I'll find the strength to dream (Bridge) I'll climb the steepest hill, I'll fight the raging tide I'll push against the pressure, I'll stand by my own side Though the path ahead is shadowed, and the road is hard to find I'll hold onto the light within me, and leave the darkness behind (Verse 3) The moments seem like centuries, the hours feel like days But I won't let this burden define me, won't let it have its way I'll shrug it off my shoulder, let it fall to the ground And in the echoes of its shatter, I will be unbound With every step I'm taking, I'll shed a piece of the despair And slowly but surely, I'll start to breathe the purest air The world will keep on spinning, the sun will always rise But now I know the strength that's in me, and I can reach the skies (Chorus) It's so heavy, I can't bear the wait This feeling like the world is caving in, it's hard to relate The pain inside my heart is a silent scream But through the ruins of my doubt, I'll find the strength to dream (Outro) I'll break free from this prison, leave the weight of the past My heart will heal, my spirit will last And when the world is caving in, and the pain is just too much to bear I'll remember that I've got the strength within me, to dare To live, to love, to laugh, to grow, to simply be And in the end, that's all we really need to carry (Repeat Chorus) It's so heavy, I can't bear the wait This feeling like the world is caving in, it's hard to relate The pain inside my heart is a silent scream But through the ruins of my doubt, I'll find the strength to dream
