Dead Heart's Don't Cry

Dead Hearts Don’t Cry
Words & Music by Steve Siler

If you really knew me
Then you wouldn’t like me
I’m damaged and dirty
And shameful to the core
What you see is fiction
A fragile contradiction
Hopeless and hurting
And constantly at war

You’d think the tears would flow
From these wounded, weary eyes
You’d think the tears would flow
But dead hearts don’t cry

I feel like an accomplice
Why didn’t I stop this?
Evil and awful
Somehow I caused this pain
Inside the demons shout it
But I can’t talk about it
I’m used and confused
And it’s eating me away

You’d think the tears would flow
In a never ending tide
You’d think the tears would flow
But dead hearts don’t cry

How could God love me
When I hate myself?

You’d think the tears would flow
From these wounded, weary eyes
You’d think the tears would flow
But dead hearts don’t cry

Man of Sorrows

Man of Sorrows
Words & Music by Steve Siler

No majesty to attract us
Despised and rejected by mankind
Like one from whom people hide their faces
We held him and low esteem

Man of sorrows
Familiar with suffering

Man of sorrows
A righteous guilt offering
Pouring out his life he bore our sins
He was a man
He was a man of sorrows

Pierced for our transgressions
Crushed for our iniquities
The punishment that brought us peace was upon him
And by his wounds we are healed

Man of sorrows
Familiar with suffering
Man of sorrows
A righteous guilt offering
Pouring out his life he bore our sins
Yes, he was a man
He was a man of sorrows

Like sheep we have all gone astray
Each of us has turned to our own way
And on him has been laid
Everything that we have done wrong

Lead like a lamb to the slaughter
Yet he did not open his mouth
He was cut off from the land of the living
Though no violence he had done

Man of sorrows
Familiar with suffering
Man of sorrows
A righteous guilt offering
Pouring out his life he bore our sins
He was a man
He was a man
A man of sorrows

Crooked Road

Crooked Road
Words & Music by Christopher Bailey & Steve Siler

It’s hard feeling different from everybody else
Oh how I wish for just one day I could be normal
But there is no escaping and no cure to make me well
And every single day is such a struggle
I cannot run
I cannot hide
What can I do?
This is my life

If you love me God
Why did you let this happen?
Are you in this place
I could not have imagined?
I’m crying out for peace
And the patience that comes from you alone
Lord, give me faith to walk this crooked road

I feel like a mirror that’s been shattered by a rock
How will I ever put the pieces back together?
It’s like I’m in an earthquake & the shaking just won’t stop
And nothing I can do will make it better
There’s so much pain
It’s such a grind
It’s just not fair
It’s just not right

If you love me God
Why did you let this happen?
Are you in this place
I could not have imagined?
I’m crying out for peace
And the patience that comes from you alone
Lord, give me faith to walk this crooked road

It’s as if there is race
And there’s no way I can win
‘Cause I’m running with my shoelaces tied
Every time I get up
I get knocked back down
How will I ever reach the finish line?

Sometimes it feels
like you’re not there
Lord do you see?
Lord do you care?

If you love me God
Why did you let this happen?
Are you in this place
I could not have imagined?
I’m crying out for peace
And the patience that comes from you alone
Lord, give me faith to walk this crooked road

I Miss You

I Miss You
Words & Music by Lee Black, Steve Siler, & Tony Wood

You were always there to talk about
a thousand things in life
School and friends and work and all
the dreams I had inside
Now those memories don’t register
there isn’t much to say
If we talk at all it’s of some far off
distant yesterday
I feel like you’ve been stolen by some thief
and anytime I’m with you now
All I feel is grief

I miss you
Can’t hold back the tears
Like I’ve lost you
and yet you’re still here
It’s a long goodbye
that goes on and on and on
I miss you and you’re not even gone

I feel guilty ‘cause I don’t enjoy
the time I spend with you
I long for days that won’t come back
The things we used to do
I know this isn’t who you’d want to be
Could these days make me forget
who you once were to me

I miss you
Can’t hold back the tears
Like I’ve lost you
and yet you’re still here
It’s a long goodbye
that goes on and on and on
I miss you and you’re not even gone

Prayer for You

Prayer for Y0u
Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, Tony Wood

Half my heart is half a world away
It feels like the life in me is missing
From the moment I awake
I put on my brave face
and fight back the tears that want to flow

it almost hurts me more to hear your voice
’cause it makes me want to fell your arms around me
We ache across the miles
We have to for awhile
but still there is hope

i’m sending out a prayer for you
Knowing that you’re praying too
While we’re living in this loneliness
We can trust
the God that we’re both looking to
is looking out for us

We can find the strength to carry on
We have love enough to bridge the distance
and love will see us through
til I can be with you
Until then we’re not alone
cause

i’m sending out a prayer for you
Knowing that you’re praying too
While we’re living in this loneliness
We can trust
the God that we’re both looking to
is looking out for us

Too Big for My Body

Too Big for My Body
Words & Music by Steve Siler

When my emotions won’t fit inside the frame
I color outside the lines
It’s a chemical reaction inside my brain
It makes me crazy sometimes
I’m sorry my emotions blow up in your face

Sometimes my feelings are too big for my body
and sometimes the crossfire ricochets in my head
Sometimes the current overloads the whole system
and my mind is defenseless when the chaos begins

I can’t control them, these voices in my head
They’re pushing and pulling me down
It’s a crowded, lonely feeling, making no sense
A maze with no clear way out
I know from where you’re standing it feels like no one’s home

But sometimes my feelings are too big for my body
Sometimes the crossfire ricochets in my head
Then my reactor overheats in a meltdown
and there’s no peace to be found when the chaos begins

I cry out to the heavens
Desperately
Who is the real me?
Who is the real me?

’cause sometimes my feelings are too big for my body
and sometimes the crossfire ricochets in my head
I pray for mercy and the calm of your presence
where my soul can find respite
so that healing begins
Peace and healing begin
Peace and healing begin

When You Don't Know What to Say

When You Don’t Know What to Say
Words & Music by Steve Siler

Someone you love is hurting
and your powerless to make it stop
You want to move Heaven
You want to move earth
And your praying with everything you’ve got
Praying for an answer
But only questions come
What’s to be said?
What’s to be done?

When you don’t have the words
To take away the pain
When someone who means the world to you
Can’t take another day
You can speak just by your presence
With a love that stays
and trust that God is in the silence
When you don’t know what to say

It’s hard to sit with the sadness
It’s uncomfortable to let it be
The air feels so heavy
The ache feels so raw
And you wonder if maybe should leave
Is there some wisdom?
A scripture you could share?
What would bring comfort?
What would bring care?

When you don’t have the words
To take away the pain
When someone who means the world to you
Can’t take another day
You can speak compassion
With a love that waits
and trust that God is in the silence
When you don’t know what to say

When you don’t know what to say
The Spirit intercedes
and in the stillness
There is room to breathe

You can speak just by the closeness
in a tender way
and trust that God is in the silence
When you don’t know what to say
Trust that God is in the silence
When you don’t know what to say

Breakthrough

Breakthrough
Words & Music by Steve Siler

The sky is the color of cold, grey steel
How does it know the way I feel?
Heavy and laden, bleak and depressed
Hollow from emptiness, weighed down with stress
I need a lifeline of hope
Lord, if you’re listening throw me a rope

Break through
Lord I need you to break through
Like a small yellow flower pushing up through the sod
I need the light
Show the way please dear God
to break through
Breakthrough

Flailing down under a deep, dark sea
You are the oxygen tank I need
Lord pull me up by your hand
On to the solid rock where I can stand
and

Breakthrough
Lord I know you can break through
Like a small yellow flower pushing up through the sod
I need the sun
Show the way please dear God
to break through
Breakthrough

The clouds can’t hold back the sun
The night can’t hold back the dawn
My wounds can’t hold back your grace
When I seek your face

Breakthrough
Thank you God that you break through
Like a small yellow flower pushing up through the sod
I need the light
Show the way please dear God
to breakthrough
Every day won’t you break through
Oh I need you to break through
Breakthrough

Days of Hope

Days of Hope
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne & Steve Siler

In the corner there’s a man who’s been brought down by the bottle
On a cot there lies a lady black and blue
There’s a man who served his country just staring out the window
Broken and alone

When we serve is when we love
When we give then there’s enough
When we reach out with the hands of Christ
These are the days of hope

A blanket for the cold
An arm around a shoulder
A shelter in the middle of a storm
A simple cup of soup
A kind word for a stranger
An open heart, an open door

When we serve is when we love
When we give then there’s enough
When we reach out with the hands of Christ
These are the days of hope

When our gifts join together
We bring a better day
So let us partner
Let us pray

When we serve is when we love
When we give then there’s enough
When we reach out with the hands of Christ
These are the days of hope

Walking without Skin

Walking without Skin
Words & Music by Steve Siler

The pain is raw
Every inch of my heart like an open wound
I can’t go on
I’ll drown if I don’t stop the bleeding soon
Where can I find some protection
to prevent this ongoing infection?
I’m walking without skin
Walking without skin

Raindrops sting
Every tear cuts like it’s broken glass
Your violence
Stalks like a shadow that will not pass
How will I know when it’s safer
When every step feels sandpiper?
I’m walking without skin
Walking without skin

I want to laugh
I want to love
I want all the good things that life is made of
I won’t let you win
You don’t have control
You stole what you could
But you don’t get my soul

With every day I’m getting stronger
and soon I won’t be any longer
Walking without Skin
Don’t wanna be walking without skin
Won’t find me walking without skin

Child of God

Child of God
Words & Music by Steve Siler

I paint on the face
I strap on the heels
I shut down my heart so it won’t have to feel
the hands that don’t know me all over my skin
and the eyes that don’t love me drinking me in
Under this make up
I’m black and blue
The petals were crushed before I could bloom
I didn’t choose this
No one ever would
And I’d break these chains if only I could
I’m a child of God
I hide in plain sight
I’m a child of God
Slave to the night
Powerless, broken, abandoned, abused
Do you see a child of God
Or just a prostitute?
The world looks away and calls me a whore
and each day I die just a little bit more
A disposable person to keep at arms length
Human trash…
Is that what you think?
I’m a child of God
I hide in plain sight
I’m a child of God
Slave to the night
Powerless, broken, abandoned, abused
Do you see a child of God
Or just a prostitute?
What I’ve become is not who I am
We both were created by the very same hand
I’m a child of God
I hide in plain sight
I’m a child of God
This isn’t right
See my humanity
Look for the truth
I am a child of God
I am a child of God
Not a prostitute

This Should Never Have Happened to You

This Should Never Have Happened to You
Words & Music by Steve Siler

I’m sorry
I really am
But I know that words alone won’t make it better
I’ve been a selfish man
Betraying everything we had together
I dishonored you and hurt you
My love and my best friend
I was so blinded by my sin

But now I see your worth
I put you through what you did not deserve
I wish I could take back what I can’t undo
This should never have happened to you

I’m sorry
for all the lies
I shattered trust one secret at a time
So caught up in the counterfeit
I couldn’t see the truth
that what I should have treasured was you

And now I see your worth
I put you through what you did not deserve
Oh, I can’t take it back and it breaks me in two
This should never have happened to you
This should never have happened to you

Sorry doesn’t mean much
unless a heart has changed
and it’s hard to cross a bridge once it’s been burned
But I’ll work to be a different man
Repair the damage that I’ve done
and pray that one day your trust can be earned

‘Cause now I see your worth
I know I put you through what you did not deserve
Oh, I can’t take it back
But one thing is true
This should never have happened to you
This should never
Oh no, no never
This should never have happened to you

It Doesn't Feel like Christmas This Year

It Doesn’t Feel like Christmas This Year
Words & Music by Steve Siler
The houses and shops are all greening
There’s baking and wrapping to do
Outside they’re caroling white Christmas
But in my heart it’s blue
December’s the time for snowfall
But all that’s falling is my tears
I wish this holiday would just go away
Cause it doesn’t feel like Christmas this yearCandles and Yule lights are twinkling
Everyone’s merry and bright
But me, I’ve got a different reason
To have a silent night
People are full of the spirit
I can’t seem to get there from here
Wish I could just pretend
That it’s spring again
Cause it doesn’t feel like Christmas this yearThe calendar says to be of good cheer
To be joyful, to laugh, and sing
But in the midst of celebration
What do I do with all of this pain?December’s the time for snowfall
But all that’s falling is my tears
I wish this holiday would just go away
Cause it doesn’t feel like Christmas this year
Wish I could just pretend
That it’s spring again
Cause it doesn’t feel like Christmas this year
