A Pastor's Prayer

'Please Lord, ' a Pastor's plea,
'Show me how to Shepard each of these.'
'Give me words when they are down,
That hope and peace may be found.'
On his knees, he shares his heart,
'Please use me, every part.'
'Nothing will I ever hold back,
Please make up for, where I lack.'
Use my mouth, to proclaim Your Word,
So truth may be told to all who have heard.
Use my eyes, to see those you love,
As You, mold them in Your Image above.
Use my ears, to listen to their needs,
Use my mind, … Show me how to lead.
Use my arms, in loving hugs,
For it is on Your heartstrings that they tug.
Use my laughter, in times of joy,
Use my hands, as I dedicate a new baby boy.
Use my heart, even though it may break,
As I say goodbye, to a long loved saint.

I Dont Depend On You

The night
So young
You could lose
You could gain
Your temperatures rising
Better pull into the outside lane
You always say youre not the jealous kind
Then you tell all your friends that Ive got one thing on my mind
Ive played this scene before, you had one foot in the door
But theres always plenty more, dont try to use me
I dont depend on you, Ive got my own friends too
Ill never be your wife, dont try to use me
Ive played this scene before, you had one foot in the door
But theres always plenty more, dont try to use me
Its cruel but its true, I dont depend on you
Its cruel but its true, go back to the end of the queue
Ive played this scene before, you had one foot in the door
But theres always plenty more, dont try to use me
I dont depend on you, Ive got my own friends too
Ill never be your wife, dont try to use me

VI. Giuseppe Caponsacchi

Answer you, Sirs? Do I understand aright?
Have patience! In this sudden smoke from hell,—
So things disguise themselves,—I cannot see
My own hand held thus broad before my face
And know it again. Answer you? Then that means
Tell over twice what I, the first time, told
Six months ago: 't was here, I do believe,
Fronting you same three in this very room,
I stood and told you: yet now no one laughs,
Who then … nay, dear my lords, but laugh you did,
As good as laugh, what in a judge we style
Laughter—no levity, nothing indecorous, lords!
Only,—I think I apprehend the mood:
There was the blameless shrug, permissible smirk,
The pen's pretence at play with the pursed mouth,
The titter stifled in the hollow palm
Which rubbed the eyebrow and caressed the nose,
When I first told my tale: they meant, you know,
"The sly one, all this we are bound believe!
"Well, he can say no other than what he says.

Fundamental of Liar Chapter CXVII: Use

Even I could spell so much difficult words
But if I don’t find one right word to say
What use I know?

Even I have very clear collection of memory
But if I can’t recall it on the right moment
What use I remember?

Even I understand so many problems
But if I don’t agree with the answers
What use I learn?

Even I own lot of facilities
But if I ignore it most of time
What use I care?

Even it could give me so many benefits
But if I don’t get desire of it
What use I follow?

Stop Giving Them a Reason

We're running on low.
Low
Low
Low.
We're running on desperateness,
And fear
That has to end.

We're running on low.
Low
Low
Low.
We're running on desperateness,
And fear
That has to end.

We've got to stop excuses.
Stop feeding crime to police.
Stop giving them a reason,
To use a gun!

Use My Frustration As a Means For Your Motivation

We seem to always seek that need,
To find a comfort feeding to please.
Wishing we were given space...
When it is wanted,
And when it should take place.

Use my frustration,
As a means for your motivation.
You always bring me there,
Without concern or care.
Use my frustration,
In re-inactments as libations.
Use my sweated brow to rehearse...
How to implement your curse!

We seem to find time to criticize,
Those close to us and on our side.
Nit-picking everything they do...
With a disregard of loyalty,
And a devotion shown that's proved!

Use It Or Lose It

Ragtime fast lane--another overdose
You know james dean wasnt playing the role
I said hey, you, what-cha gonna do
When the time runs out on you
Use it or lose it
Sweet pain is the name of the game
I said hey hey hey hey hey
You better use it before you lose it
You better use it--dont throw it away
Jfk, marilyn monroe
Street walking gypsy--margaret trudeau
I said hey, you, what-cha gonna do
Times run out on you
Use it or lose it
Sweet time--is it on my side?
I said hey hey hey hey
Better use it before you lose it
You better use it--dont throw it away
Sweet pain is the name of the game
I said hey hey hey hey hey

Reflection

( del naja, davidge )
3d
Take me where the tides start
And I can pull you into me
Youre really crushing gravity
Your corona is reaching consequences
? ? ? my ? ? ?
It all comes back to me
? ? ?
Collects like dust around my head
And lightly rings and clings
Cant be shakin off the ? ? ?
Like characters we ? ? ? and ? ? ?
Youre ? ? ? to ? ? ? you
Theres nothing I can save for this
No fold it up in 2 of this
No ? ? ? string
No flight-path
No cream
Comes back to me

Use Me

Written by: bill withers
My friends feel its their appointed duty
They keep trying to tell me all you want to do is use me
Uh huh but my answer about all that use me stuff
I want to spread the news that if it feels this good getting used
You can keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
My brother sit me right down and he talked to me
He told me that I ought to not let you just walk on me
Well Im sure that he meant well, yeah but when our talk was throught
I said brother if you only knew youd wish you were in my shoes
You can keep on using me
Until you use me up
Until you use me up
Sometimes its true you really do abuse me
Oh you get me in a crowd of high class people
And you act real rude to me
I said, oh baby, baby, baby, baby, when you love me I cant get enough
I wanna spread the news that if it feels this good getting used
