David William Breidenthal Poet Lyric

In My Life

There’s positivity ashore
I don’t love you anymore
There’s positivity elevated
Used to being so jaded

In my life,
I have dealt with strife
In my life,
I want a winsome wife
In my life,
I have lost it all
In my life,
I will stand tall

In my life...in my life...in my life...
It cuts so deep like a jagged knife
Let’s see what happens next...
I am extremely vexed...vexed...
In my life...in my life...in my life...
It cuts so deep like a jagged knife
Let’s see if I’ll make it another day
I am extremely filled with dismay

There’s gladness in what lies ahead
I don’t hate you with such utter dread
There’s gladness in eating His bread
I have happiness and joy instead...instead...

In my life,
I have dealt with strife
In my life,
I want a winsome wife
In my life,
I have lost it all
In my life,
I will stand tall

In my life...in my life...in my life...
It cuts so deep like a jagged knife
Let’s see what happens next...
I am extremely vexed...vexed...
In my life...in my life...in my life...
It cuts so deep like a jagged knife
Let’s see if I’ll make it another day
I am extremely filled with dismay

Engrained in mere embarrassment
I have been full of discouragement
I need Your help, oh Lord, to be holy
I don’t want to be human literally
Engrained in mere embarrassment
I have been enlarged in encouragement
I have received Your love - it’s blessing-sent
I need Your joy, oh Lord, to lift me up
I don’t want to be human...I need to be filled up like your delightful cup

In my life,
I have dealt with strife
In my life,
I want a winsome wife
In my life,
I have lost it all
In my life,
I will stand tall

In my life...in my life...in my life...
It cuts so deep like a jagged knife
Let’s see what happens next...
I am extremely vexed...vexed...
In my life...in my life...in my life...
It cuts so deep like a jagged knife
Let’s see if I’ll make it another day
I am extremely filled with dismay

I just want peace within
I just want to know where You’ve been
I don’t want to be lost again
I really need His mercy ten times ten

In my life,
I have dealt with strife
In my life,
I want a winsome wife
In my life,
I have lost it all
In my life,
I will stand tall

In my life...in my life...in my life...
It cuts so deep like a jagged knife
Let’s see what happens next...
I am extremely vexed...vexed...
In my life...in my life...in my life...
It cuts so deep like a jagged knife
Let’s see if I’ll make it another day
I am extremely filled with dismay

There’s positivity ashore
I have been hit to the core
I love the pain you put me through
Without you, I am numb with rue
