You beat the bass up
I am fishing for your attention
Your rhythm syncs with my heart
I’ve got no more luck
As if it exists anyway
I am that bass

I’ve got blurry eyes
Which is not really blind
Just different perspective
Up close I can see imperfections
Which are really not imperfections
Just different in perfection
The heart is the same
One in love and ready the same

I wish I was actually mentally ill
Then maybe this suffering will
Come to a bitter and hopeful end
So I endure it again and again
In payment by the pain
For yours and my transgressions
Not found in any aggressions

I fell in love with you
The moment I saw you
Cracked open my heart’s shell
Exposing all, do tell

From here I stay silent
My passions I will relent
Otherwise misunderstood intentions
Blown out of proportions

I love that you love me
Looking to within me
I most certainly find thee
To find you outside me
Another matter entirely

I pine for your love
But when push comes to shove
I will step aside
To set you on a ride
To a place you have never been

There is more to love when you give it
Better to give it than to receive it
Does more for your soul
Than any particular kind of role
Granting graces as He sees fit

I know this
’cause I live this
Every day
Forever will I say
I love you more than you know

Got the rhythm blues
Dancing in my shoes
In step with you
Spinning ’round you

My love poured out in motion
Deep and sorrowful emotion
To get to you by locomotion
I hope you get the notion

To all I am dangerous
Dangerously close
To condemning the world
An eye to behold
All truth be told
Don’t fit into a mould
Casting away all darkness
Revealing your true nature

So lift up your hearts
Let your spirits be lifted
Sanctioned grace comes by the way
To those who seek it and know it
Bypassing all the wretched
And leaving dust in it’s wake

When I looked I peered deep
Into His Countenance a pure sweep
Knocked me off my feet
Saw His smile, a defeat
Gracious and beyond beauty
Perfection absolutely

I suffer for you
Want and need you
To feel the love I feel
Embracing that which is real

In a blanket of pain
From others I get disdain
Unknowingly self-destructive
They think what they do is positive

I go by unnoticed
Hoping you noticed
But as reality kicks in
My mistakes, my sin

Yet reconciliation prevails
Over condemnation and nails
Granted forgiveness
Despite my nothingness

There is joy to be found
Despite what evils surround
For we have refuge in the Cross
But to some they are at a loss

To discern spiritual things
Is not like observing Saturn’s rings
But rather disciplined love that does not relent
Listening to those whom God has sent

She cares not for my love
Wish she would see the dove
That one from up on above
Despite the torrent of love
It fits hers like a glove

Let me plunge into your emotions
Purifying it with fire
Firing it up without tire
Calming the stormy seas
Entering into not some tease
Your hopes and your dreams
Are my intentions it seems

Once I was dead
I know how it felt
Like catching a breath
You grasp onto the only love
That kept you alive
And could never let it go

Wish you were here
Everything done to endear
And if that is not enough
My heart will get tough
As it burns an eternal flame
Substantial wth the claim

Picked up the pieces you lost
Tried to assemble it out of love
I am judged and ignored instead
After my feeble attempt
At reconciliation
Humiliation

Strum my heartstrings to your tune
In the chamber of my heart there is room
For all of Heaven and more
God’s gift is in store

Let me love you for sure
Enticing you with a lure
To draw you nearer and closer
To love’s wish for her

My purpose is to pour out love
Amidst a heartless world
To show that Love most powerful
Raises the dead even
To pronounce the Great Return
And I am here through fate

Love endures because of hope
Willing to endure the worst
For what waits is good
And what is good is from God
