Once Upon A Time

    a long long time ago

    in a place I used to know

Harvest of Yesterdays

    is this reaping what was sown?

    finally paying off the loan?

HOW TO GET WELL

    I want to be well, I want to be well

    I want to be well, I just want to yell!

SILENT NO MORE 

    can’t keep this bottled up

    can’t keep covering up

TELL ME MORE

    will you listen, really listen?

    cuz it’s compassion I’m really missin’

DARE TO DREAM

    let it flow

    feel the glow

Girls Forever Brave and True 

    I can be one

    Yes, I am one

MEMORIES

    painful stabs, repeating past

    oh, how long will it last?

Yesterday, I Cried 

    they say it’s okay

    good to let it out each day

PROMISES

    this too shall pass

    and I will be healed at last!

WHAT REMAINS 

    put the pieces back together

    feel in the process, feel better

Never Forget

    my whole is greater than the sum of my brokenness

    faith, hope, and love bring me wholesomeness

FALL & RISE 

    no matter how hard and far I fell

    it is never too hard or far to get well
