I'M Gonna Show You How Great I Am

Shadows seem to surround us
But it's really the light we're more afraid of
Strangers come and I let them know me
But you are still held at arm's length
I've got the reach, I know I do
I'll close the space to just hold you

I'm gonna show you how great I am
A force too fierce to be denied
I'm gonna show you how great I am
Because I know I once moved thunder
And held the lightening in place
just to make your eyes shine

It's not my fear of failure before you
It's my fear of the wonder of just
letting go and letting you in
These pathetic terrors are nothing
but walls I'm gonna climb
'Cuz I'm gonna show you how great I am

I'm gonna show you how great I am
Because I know I once moved thunder
And held the lightening in place
just to make your eyes shine

Setting Sun

Why must you leave
Must you go away
Can we not bask 
In another light of day
What are you running from my dear
Can we not stand and fight the
Fear inside
The fear inside 
Fight the fear inside
Away 
Won’t you stay
As the sun sets
I hold on for the light
You took the stars
I sit alone in the night
Why must this sun always fall down
And leave me broken on the
Hard cold ground
The hard cold ground
This same old broken ground
Tonight
This can’t be right
When you came home
You asked to meet up some night
But I stayed home
I’m so weary from this fight
I tried to love you tried to stay strong
But I’ve been dragged on 
Far too long
I can’t hold on
I can no longer be strong
For you
