I trace the lines where the scars go deep. If I take a hit first, then the fall from your arms won't feel as steep. You're the one holding the blade. So sharp, you're sweet. Come on, darling, I won't feel a thing. You jest and you jest, but there's still a heartbeat inside. Beneath the mask of an idiot in which you try to hide. You snuck up behind, a dagger--rather than I--in your embrace. A kick to the back of my knees, now I'm falling from grace. I looked up from the ground. Too desperate to be oblivious. But god, the glint in your eyes was hideous. With unwavering trust, like a dog on a chain. Clawing at my stitches, the aching remains. It's a dull sort of pain. My hands were shaking, the air growing thin. Lungs expanding slowly, where does one begin? I've never known a man to make me feel small. But when you speak, suddenly I'm just a little girl begging for my mom to call. You jest and you jest, but I need there to still be a heartbeat inside. Underneath the mask of an idiot, now taking my side. You snuck up behind, a dagger--rather than I--in your embrace. A kick to the back of my knees, now I'm falling from grace. It's your game, I should know how to play. Just give me the rules, I'll be okay. So I'll breathe in the names, and wear them like a second skin. Cover my ears, and maybe the ground won't spin. I've never known a man to make me feel small. But when you speak, suddenly I'm just a little girl begging for my mom to call.

Verse 1: In a swamp so green, by a murky stream, Lived a big ol’ ogre, living his dream. Shrek was his name, don’t mess with his peace, But something in his heart was yearning for release. Pre-Chorus: He saw a donkey, and he saw a princess, But nothing in this world could cause more distress, Than a love so strong, it cut like a knife, Shrek is love, Shrek is life! Chorus: Shrek is love, Shrek is life, In the swamp, there’s no strife. With his big green heart, and his dirty boots, He’s the one who’ll make your dreams come true. Shrek is love, Shrek is life, A fairytale with no end in sight. From the swamp to the castle, it’s all a ride, Shrek’s got love, it’s deep inside! Verse 2: One fateful day, Fiona came by, A love so true, it made him sigh. No more alone, no more disdain, Shrek found love and broke the chain. Pre-Chorus: He didn’t need fame, didn’t need the gold, All he needed was someone to hold. And in her arms, he found his light, Shrek is love, Shrek is life! Chorus: Shrek is love, Shrek is life, In the swamp, there’s no strife. With his big green heart, and his dirty boots, He’s the one who’ll make your dreams come true. Shrek is love, Shrek is life, A fairytale with no end in sight. From the swamp to the castle, it’s all a ride, Shrek’s got love, it’s deep inside! Bridge: From "don’t tell me what I can’t do," To finding love, and making it true, No fairy tale, no dragon’s breath, Can stop this love, not even death. Chorus: Shrek is love, Shrek is life, In the swamp, there’s no strife. With his big green heart, and his dirty boots, He’s the one who’ll make your dreams come true. Shrek is love, Shrek is life, A fairytale with no end in sight. From the swamp to the castle, it’s all a ride, Shrek’s got love, it’s deep inside! Outro: Shrek’s the king of this fairytale land, In his swamp, with his big green hand. Shrek is love, and Shrek’s our guy, He’s the one we love, no need to deny!
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

Verse 1: We went to Cleveland, saw Hadestown, Orpheus and Eurydice, love all around. I’m just a swamp-dwelling, grumpy old soul, But with you, I felt like I might lose control. Chorus: After the show, you turned to me, With eyes full of wonder, and a grin so free. You said, "Will you marry me, my dear?" I looked at you like, "What is this, some kind of joke here?" Verse 2: Walking down the street, a real good time, But I thought, “This can’t be real, must be a crime!” You looked at me with that puppy dog stare, Like you just caught me mid-‘ogre’ hair. Chorus: After the show, you turned to me, With eyes full of wonder, could it be? You said, "Will you marry me, my dear?" I laughed and said, "Wait, are you serious here?" Bridge: Orpheus and Eurydice, a tale so sweet, But I live in a swamp, and like my meat! You, all shiny and sweet, asking for my hand, I thought, “Are we in a fairy tale land?” Verse 3: You took my hand, and I felt a spark, Wait, you're real? Not some prince in the dark? With a grin, I said, "You really mean it?" "Yes!" you said, "I want to keep it." Chorus: After the show, you turned to me, With eyes full of wonder, could it be? You said, "Will you marry me, my dear?" I laughed and said, "You’re not joking, I fear!" Outro: Layne and Alex, we’re not that neat, But together, we make a pretty cool beat. From Cleveland to forever, let’s get it right, Two ogres in love, ready to fight. In love, and in life, we’ll make our mark, Layne and Alex, it’s our own sweet arc!

Verse 1: Fish Sticks the cat, he's orange and wild, Drives Rhea crazy, but she's still beguiled. He leaps on the curtains, knocks things to the floor, Always causing chaos, she's had to buy more. Chorus: Fish Sticks, oh Fish Sticks, you're out of control, Rhea's patience is wearing thin, taking its toll. She threatens the circus where you'd chase funny mice, But we all know she loves you, despite your vice. Verse 2: He zooms through the house, a furry orange blur, Knocking over vases, making Rhea stir. She catches him stealing food from the plate, "Fish Sticks, behave!" But it's always too late. Chorus: Fish Sticks, oh Fish Sticks, you're out of control, Rhea's patience is wearing thin, taking its toll. She threatens the circus where you'd chase funny mice, But we all know she loves you, despite your vice. Bridge: Late at night, when the world is asleep, Fish Sticks curls up, no more mischief to reap. Rhea sighs, she can’t stay mad for long, 'Cause Fish Sticks purrs, and all feels right, like a song. Verse 3: Morning comes, the antics start anew, Fish Sticks on the prowl, always something to do. Rhea shakes her head, but there's a smile on her face, 'Cause life without Fish Sticks would feel out of place. Chorus: Fish Sticks, oh Fish Sticks, you're out of control, Rhea's patience is wearing thin, taking its toll. She threatens the circus where you'd chase funny mice, But we all know she loves you, despite your vice. Outro: So here's to Fish Sticks, the cat who’s insane, Driving Rhea bonkers, but she can’t complain. For in every crazy moment, every little spree, Fish Sticks brings laughter and love endlessly.

In your world of lights and sound, I found a love so profound. Chorus: Together we rise, a love unforeseen, Rock star and healer, a perfect dream.

(Chorus) Today I don’t feel like thinkin’ deep, Just wanna chill and let the world sleep. Put the books away and let ideas flow, Intellectual vibes, come on, let’s go! (Verse 1) Got the Enlightenment cruisin’ in my mind, Ideas popping up, ain’t no hurry, we unwind. Philosophers and thinkers sparkin’ up the flame, Lockdown the norms, ain’t playin’ no blame. (Pre-Chorus) We could talk ’bout Newton, Einstein, and their games, But not today, I just wanna feel the change. Let’s sit back, relax under this blue sky, Watch the world turn while we let theories fly. (Chorus) Today I don’t feel like thinkin’ deep, Just wanna chill and let the world sleep. Put the books away and let ideas flow, Intellectual vibes, come on, let’s go! (Verse 2) Industrial dreams, makin’ history shift, People on the grind, man, it’s a powerful gift. Social revolution, yeah, dreamers goin’ bold, But I’m here in my PJs, let the stories unfold. (Pre-Chorus) Yeah, let’s wave goodbye to the old school ties, Sending shockwaves under clear blue skies. So much to explore, but let’s take it slow, This lazy revolution, let the good times roll. (Chorus) Today I don’t feel like thinkin’ deep, Just wanna chill and let the world sleep. Put the books away and let ideas flow, Intellectual vibes, come on, let’s go! (Bridge) We can sip some coffee, debate those great minds, But right now, it’s all about good times. Turn the speakers up, let the music play, While we’re dreamin’ big, let’s just drift away. (Chorus) Today I don’t feel like thinkin’ deep, Just wanna chill and let the world sleep. Put the books away and let ideas flow, Intellectual vibes, come on, let’s go! (Outro) So come on, kick back, join this lazy parade, In the world of ideas, we’ve got it made. Intellectual, yeah, but take it slow, In this revolution, it’s our time to glow!
