BANDIT ON THE RUN



Oh baby sister
I can not believe you are gone
Last night I saw a falling star
Drifting away from the sky before dawn

In nature, we were opposite 
Yet perfect together in every match
You were like a mother to me indeed
Always conscious of the things I need as much

First it was Ini, my beloved brother
I knew from that moment
My world came to an end before september
If not, how can I return back to sanity?

You knew I was ready to fight for you until the end
Why did you have to go without saying goodbye
Why did you had to let go my hand
I am as guilty as a murderer, watching you slip by

My regrets can not bring you out of the sand 
Please allow me to wander endlessly
Is this the best life got to offer to a weary mind?
The moment you went away, I lost my insanity 

This bring back pain to an already inflicted heart 
Wish I could borrow your smile 
Your smile is the only thing that makes me happy tonight
It is difficult for me, but I had to say goosbye

ALWAYS BY YOUR SIDE



Last time when we were strolling together
I noticed the stars twinkling high above
I was jealous, my heart is very fond of you
You mean so much to me

I know life robbed you off a mother's love
Nothing in the world can ever replace that
I know what it feels to loss someone dear
It's like the world is falling apart

You are stronger than you think you are
Be bold, wipe away the tears from your eyes
That is the right thing she will want you to do
Did you noticed how amazing you look when you smile?

A day at a time, that is all it takes
If you need someone who truely care
I will be here offering my love for free
All I want is what is best for you

While you go to sleep tonight
Know that you can still find love
It is alright if you have nightmares
I will be here by your side to ease away the fear

THE DAY OF THE LORD



Oh Lord, I plead the blood of Jesus 
Please hear my humble cry
In your infinite mercy, forgive us
Cause not the souls to perish and die

For generations you have been faithful
To man despite his insipid nature of mind
We broke our vows, yet despised you
For a mere piece of silver, the house of God turned blind

The prophecies of old are upon us
We mock the grace of God, slaughtered one another
The church of God is not as sacred
But a refuge for thieves and a muderer

In the clouds I see your glory 
I will serve thee because you love me
My song of praise, your amazing grace will be
You have giving life to me, I will praise thee

Tonight as I lay on my bed to sleep
I confess my sins to be washed away
I forsake every act unclean in my heart
When the trumpet sound, Lord take me away
