My music,
It sings so loud
I say what I want,
Its not what you want to hear
You need what I have to say

On the radio
Playing a broken guitar
Speaking from my heart
Using my mind
Jesus on the strings
Guiding my foot on the petal
Jesus on the strings
A dork singing on a broken guitar

Rudolph taught me about the harp
Street music for your ears
God bless you people
Incur a bane way of life
Angels my friends and cash in my hand

Hold to this.  Its what I do
The purpose God lay me here
Not to get drunk and alcohol and girls
Somber and broken on the lips of gray skies
Jesus on the strings
Guiding my foot on the petal
Jesus on the strings
A dork singing on a broken guitar

Maybe if it weren't so simple
I wouldn't be complicated
I need a place to live
But I really need to tell you about the bleeding lamb
Before I die and my ghost bleeds as well

On the radio
Playing a broken guitar
Speaking from my heart
Using my mind
Jesus on the strings
Guiding my foot on the petal
Jesus on the string
A dork singing on a broken guitar

I pray you find real love
And real peace be etched within you

Jesus

i get that it a song, or the begingings of one, and i understand what you are trying to convey, but it seems a little disconnected, like the lines arent complete.  i think this could be a spectacular one with a little polishing. (not to say anything, because myslef, I am real rusty)

A cange is going to come...

Hey, thanks for the constructive criticism.  I have a feeling I'll definietly make some changes when I write the music to it.  Its how they go.  I write down a roughdraft with lyrics and then when I put the music to it it usually changes a bit.  I love it.  Its like songs that I write pretty much rip me in half while I'm playing them unless I'm disconnected from it for some reason... but yeah... Thank you

God bless,
In Christ,
-Craig

Hey send me an e-mail sometime huh?  It has been a while...

If you're refering to the typo... oops..., but "tombstones without marks" is kinda like a dead body without identification.  Like everything in your life that has finally ended has come to nothing all the way to the point that even your tombstone is blank.  Sorta how my life feels from time to time.

God bless,
In Christ,
-Craig
