Assemblage 23 - Let Me Be Your Armor.

Let me take the fall
Let me take the blame
Let me carry you from hell to home again
Let me walk for you when your legs are weak
Let me find the words for you when you can't speak
Let me be you armor
Let me be your shield
Let me take away the pain you feel
Let me be the light
That guides your way through darkest night
Let me be your armor

Audra Day (covering Bob Dylan)
Forever Young

May God bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you

May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young

“And when the broken-hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be” The Beatles – “Let It Be”


“And as we lie beneath the stars
We realize how small we are
If they could love like you and me
Imagine what the world could be” Nickelback – “If Everyone Cared”


“Hanging on another day
Just to see what you will throw my way
And I'm hanging on to the words you say
You said that I will, will be OK
Broken light on the freeway
Left me here alone
I may have lost my way now
Haven't forgotten my way home

I'm falling apart
I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart
That's still beating
In the pain (In the pain)
There is healing
In your name (In your name)
I find meaning
So I'm holding on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on “ Life House – ‘Broken”

Beyonce - "Heaven"

I fought for you
The hardest, it made me the strongest
So tell me your secrets
I just can't stand to see you leaving

But heaven couldn't wait for you
No heaven couldn't wait for you
Heaven couldn't wait for you
No heaven couldn't wait for you
So go on, go home

Banks
Beggin For Thread


So I got edges that scratch
And sometimes I don't got a filter
But I'm so tired of eating all of my misspoken words

My words can come out as a pistol
And I'm no good at aiming
But I can aim it at you

I know my disposition gets confusing
My disproportionate reactions fuse with my eager state
I know my actions, they may get confusing
But my unstable ways is my solution to even space

 

[Friday]

Dierks Bentley
Riser

And I'm a riser
I'm a get up off the ground, don't run and hider
Pushin' comes a-shovin'
Hey I'm a fighter
When darkness comes to town, I'm a lighter
A get out aliver, of the fire, survivor

I'm strong enough to hold you through the winter
Mean enough to stare your demons down
The hard times put the shine into the diamond
I won't let that keep us in the ground

The Head & The Heart
Lost In My Mind

Put your dreams away for now
I won't see you for some time
I am lost in my mind
I get lost in my mind
Oh my brother, Don't you worry 'bout me

 

[VioletButterfly]

What's Going On - Marvin Gaye

Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today, eheh
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today, oh oh oh
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
Talk to me, so you can see
Oh, what's going on
What's going on
Yeah, what's going on
Ah, what's going on
In the mean time
Right on, baby
Right on brother
Right on babe
Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause our hair is long
Oh, you…
Mother, mother, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here today
Oh oh oh
Picket lines and picket signs
Don't punish me with brutality
C'mon talk to me
So you can see
What's going on
Yeah, what's going on
Tell me what's going on
I'll tell you what's going on, ooh ooo ooo ooo
Right on baby
Right on baby

Bob Marley
No woman, no cry.

Good friends we have, oh, good friends we have lost
Along the way, yeah!
In this great future, you can't forget your past;
So dry your tears, I seh. Yeah!

One of my favourite songs

Helps with survivors guilt & grief & ghosts. It's from at least the 1600s & possibly earlier. Used to be sung in places where Auld Lang Syne & Taps are modernly.

The Parting Glass

Of all the money that e'er I spent
I've spent it in good company
And all the harm that e'er I did
Alas it was to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all

Oh, all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They'd wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I'll gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be with you all
