Smile, Dear

Verse 1:
Smile, Dear. The day is new
The sun is shining through
The clouds and beams your face
With a fresh start, a clean new slate
There will be challenges
And we all have our own vices that
Keep us from getting what we need
But I won’t let them decree
What I can do.
Chorus:
I’ll look forward to the day ahead
As an opportunity instead
I’ll raise the bars that I’ve set low
For I’ve allowed my weaknesses to grow
I’ll accept that I’m a human being
And acknowledge the spirit inside me
To help with the troubles I’m facing
And to love others unconditionally
To become a light in this dark, dark world
So that others can see the giver of light
Verse 2:
Smile, Dear. It’s time to take hold of
Your fear that breaks your mold and
Throw it to the ground and
Drive it out of town because
Perfect love drives out all
Fear which you hold near
And the worries that consume your
Life must be given to
Your God who loves you
Chorus 2:
I’ll look forward to the day ahead
(Smile, dear)
As an opportunity instead
(The day is new)
I’ll raise the bars that I've set low
(The sun is)
For I’ve allowed my weaknesses to grow
(Shining through)
I’ll accept that I’m a human being
(The clouds and)
And acknowledge the spirit inside me
(Beams your face)
To help with the troubles I’m facing
(With a fresh start)
And to love others unconditionally
(A clean new slate)
To become a light in this dark, dark world
So that others can see the giver of light
(repeat Chorus 2)
Smile, Dear.

“Frank”
verse 1:
I think through a lot of different thoughts in a day.
Some are musings, some are wonders, but they're all interesting.
Some are memories of the past where I wish I could depart.
Some are dreams of the future that take me to my heart.
verse 2:
I think through a lot of different thoughts in a day.
Some depressing, some inspiring, but they’re all interesting.
Some days I think I’m in a hole where I can’t get out,
But some days I’m the one that’s helping pull somebody out.
chorus:
I don’t talk much; I’m a good listener,
But that doesn’t mean I don’t have something to say.
And from here on out, I promise you through this music
To let you know what’s on my mind today;
Hello, my name is Frank.
verse 3:
I think through a lot of different thoughts in a day,
And they like to take my mind to think in different ways.
Sometimes they take me on a journey I do not like,
But sometimes, the path is beautiful and I can see the light.
verse 4:
I think through a lot of different thoughts in a day,
And I hope that anyone will think that they’re interesting.
Sometimes I'll get a crowd to laugh at some stupid joke,
And sometimes my greatest thoughts go ignored by every folk.
chorus:
I don’t talk much, I’m a good listener,
But that doesn’t mean I don’t have something to say.
From here on out, I promise you through this music
To let you know what’s on my mind today;
Hello, my name is Frank.
ending:
I listened to a lot of different music today,
And I hope you’ll think this song is more than interesting.

Movin' On

“Movin’ On”
verse 1:
When we were together I shared happiness with you
And that happiness was unmatched with anything else I would do
But I admit that recently
I didn’t pull my weight and you pulled yours continually
So I started to pull and to try
But it was too late and. I. still. don’t. know. why.
chorus:
So I’m sorry, I’ve said it a thousand times
And you’ve forgiven me but there’s still something wrong in your eyes
Yes I tried to make it all right
But the chance you’ve given me is long gone and I know that I had
Said it, I knew it was strong
But I meant it, I knew you were wrong
I guess I’m just tired,
I’m sick of it all
I’m movin' on.
verse 2:
Yes we broke up, yes we agreed
But you’re taking it a lot harder than you ought to be
You brought it all up
About breaking up
You made your plea
And I agreed
We both saw it coming I knew I was running
But I ran back just to say
I was really trying but inside I’m dying
I just need to get a break
chorus:
So I’m sorry, I’ve said it a thousand times
And you’ve forgiven me but there’s still something wrong in your eyes
Yes I tried to make it all right
But the chance you’ve given me is long gone and I know that I had
Said it, I knew it was strong
But I meant it, I knew you were wrong
I guess I’m just tired,
I’m sick of it all
I’m movin' on.
bridge:
Even after all that, I still want to be friends
But you’re taking it as if we might never speak again
& I’m fine with you goin' to your friends to vent
But don’t go posting everything about me on the Internet
So once you’re done stabbing my heart with your words
I’ll come talk to you, because even good friends will hurt
chorus 2:
So I’m sorry, I’ve said it a thousand times
And you’ve forgiven me but there’s still something wrong in your eyes
Yes I tried to make it all right
But the chance you’ve given me is long gone and I know that I had
Said it, I knew it was strong
But I meant it, I knew you were wrong
chorus 3:
I’m done being sorry, yeah I’m wasting my time
You need to change, and until next time
It’s been Isak Wilson, with a story about
A girl he thought he knew, but she really turned around
ending:
I’m movin' on
I’m movin' on
I’m movin' on.

If

"If"
(part I):
If I saw
A shooting star flying
Across the sky
And made a wish
Would you wish you had seen it?
& If I played
A basketball game with
The all-stars that
You know so well
Would you be jealous?
If I went
Across the seven seas
And brought you back
An artifact
Would you be impressed?
& If I painted
a Mona Lisa and
Gave it to you
Would you put it on your wall?
If I planned
A birthday party at
Your favorite place
Would you want to be invited?
& If I made
A million dollars and
Gave some to you
Would you become
My friend?
(part II):
There was nothing I could have done for you
To make you think twice about myself
& All of the broken pieces of me
Were caused by your constant bullying
I wish that I had a time-machine
To go back in time and tell little me
That there’s no worth in popularity
& friendships can last an eternity
(part III):
If I had
The chance to go back and
Do it again
Would you give me a chance too?

verse 1:
The world is gonna get you down
The off days seem more often then they sound
You’re tired, hungry, and longing for warmth
Driving down the road, looking at
chorus 1:
The cloudy days can only add to your dismay
Nothing right seems to fall into place
Your tears
Mixed in with your fears
Are blinding you to the light in front of you.
verse 2:
When you fall, you will rise again
Off days are an illusion inside your head
Each problem you will face is assigned a time
A temporary moment
chorus 2:
Everything is within the grasp of your hands
Nothing is impossible when in God is where you stand
Your can’ts
Mixed in with His cans
Is the perfect combination to try again
verse 3:
When you rise you have to start somewhere
Starting somewhere means to try again
Trying ain’t a guaranteed success
It’s a platform for learning from your past
Trying ain’t a guaranteed success
It’s a platform for learning from your past
Trying ain’t a guaranteed success
It’s a platform for learning from your past
Trying ain’t a guaranteed success
It’s a platform for learning from your past
It’s a platform for doing your best
chorus 3:
Eventually you’ll get out of the rut
Of failures that you feel inside your gut
Success
Is pursued at your best
And attained when the rest is the rest
Everything is within the grasp of your hands
Nothing is impossible when in God is where you stand
Your can’ts
Mixed in with His cans
Is the perfect combination to try again
