Avoiding My Direction

Avoiding My Direction © March 11, 2007 By Andrew Smith, Justin Van Etten, Todd Ritzema Here we are going to sleep Beneath the shining stars Wondering what’s next for us Wondering where we’re going Running from the past Hiding from the future Knowing we’ll have to Face one direction Twisting roads and Paths we take I hope they’ll guide you Right back to me Lying in the grass Next to each other Avoiding the words That haven’t been said. Holding your hand And shedding a tear Loving the time That we’ve spent together (Wanting to make it last forever) Running from the past Hiding from the

Acoustic for the Longing Soul

Acoustic for the Longing Soul Written By: Andrew Smith Music By: Justin Van Etten I remember you and the first day that we met Sadly it would be the last I would see Your stunning eyes and your smile Your body’s longing for me If I could see your face just one more time I would die for it Repay your kiss In debt to you The way I wanted to If I could see your shining face just one more time I hear your voice in whisper I know you’re calling to me Your moisted lips and your cheeks I want to feel that way again If I could see your face just one more time I would die for it Repay your kiss In debt to you The way I

I'll be there

You feel you've lost, in this race called life. You've been counted out, at least a dozen times. And now, and now your down So just pick yourself up off the ground, If you need some help, I'll be around. And I'll be there For you when you need me. And I'll be there, So that people can see, My love for you. Now I can help, if you need a friend. I want to be yours, till the very end. So just let me, so just let me help you Just pick yourself up off the ground, When you need some help, I'll be around. And I'll be there For you when you need me. And I'll be there, So that people can see, My love for you. (musical interlude ins

My thoughts are clouded, With visions of you. And all that I can see is your sweet smile. It lit up my world like a wild fire, And it was a total surprise. That's when I figured it out, I want to be with you. And I know that it might sound crazy, But I want to be with you, Right now. I've thought a lot about you, Every second that goes by. And I feel your presence everywhere. And I don't know what hit me, Till I saw it in my mind. And that's when I figured it out, I want to be with you. And I know that it might sound crazy, I want to be with you, Right now. In my dreams you are my everything, You are the vision of loveli

Confessions of a Hit Man Pt 1

Confessions of a Hit Man Part 1 Date: March 12, 2003. I got the call; it was only 8:15 in the morning. "I need your help," said a very raspy, horse voice on the phone. "Someone's not paying up and a lesson needs to be learned by them." "Ok, I'm listening." I reply to the familiar raspy voice of my boss. As I listen to the raspy voice bitch and complain about the family that owed him money; they were a family with a daughter, yadda yadda yadda; I lit a smooth great tasting Cuban cigar. The glowing embers on the end kind of reminded me of this raspy voiced boss' anger with this family. When he got done ranting, I hung up the phone

Dancing in the Stars

As I lie awake, under the stars, You're all I think about. When I'm with you, I feel complete, And words can't say what you mean to me. Your love, is all I feel, And every day it surrounds me. Well I pray, and I hope, That every day you will be near. And when I look, In your eyes, I feel I'll be with you till the end of time. And we'll be dancing, in the stars tonight, Up where everyone can clearly see. You know baby, you're thinking it too, So we'll be dancing in the stars tonight. Now I hold you, in my arms, And I am holding you tight. There is nothing, I wouldn't do, To make this last forever. So when I look, In your ey

Leaving Tomorrow

I'm sitting here alone, Watching the sun set. Thinking about all the good things, That I have done and said. I thought of all my loved ones, And all the friends I know. I remembered all the good times, And every joke we told. So if I leave this world tomorrow, Would you remember me? Would it be the things I did, Or the things that I said, That made you remember me, If I leave this world tomorrow? I don't want everyone to cry, But just remember all the fun we had. Because when we were together, We felt invincible. And as I think back now, Of what I thought could change. I realized that, I wouldn't change a thing. So if I

Dreams of You and Me

I had my eye on an angel for quite some time, But when I asked her out she just shot me down. She broke my heart and she crushed my soul, As I gave them to her to have and to hold. And every night I have that reoccuring dream, Of the impossible happening. I sit here dreamin' for a day that won't come. I waste the whole night just thinking of you. As I think now there is one thing that I see, It's the fading dreams of you and me. I've been awake now for three whole days, I can't sleep becasue of what you've done to me. I stand here trembling, weak at the knees, Wondering if that dream will haunt me. Becasue every night I have tha

Mandolin

Mandolin, please play that sweet song, From which your strings vibrated so strong. The song Grandpa played for so long. Mandolin, play your precious tune, The one Grandpa wanted to teach me too. But it never happened becasue he left too soon. Mandolin, teach me the best way to play, Like Grandpa did when I would stay, At Grandpa's house all day. Mandolin, I see now where you stand, In your case alone without a playing hand. Since I last tried to play that song of Granddad's. Mandolin, it is now I find, Grandpa left you to me before he went to St. Peter's line. So play me that tune, that is now Grandpa's and Mine.

Here I Stand Alone

Here I stand alone, cold, and in the dark. A slight wind comes from the entrance at my back. Ready at anytime to draw my sword for a battle, I stood tense. My eyes fixed on a certain prize, wanting it and cherishing it with my eyes. The gold that glistened in the rays of the moon mesmerizes me and makes me just sit there and want to grab it from it's pedestal. Just then I hear the movement of something big behind me. And I don't just mean bigger than me, but bigger than anything that could live on this earth. I pull my sword out of it sheath. "What manner of demon are you?" I mutter into the darkness. "Are you of this earth or should I mak

OK, so, I have been taking a break to find my muse.......again.......and rewrite some songs with the band.  We have been working hard on writing songs and getting them on any type of CD.  Well, the CD thing is harder than it looks, so that still might be a while.  Oh well I am working on getting just the music up for the songs in a little while.  When I do, you will all be amazed (probably not cuz the band is only medioker at best right now).  Till then, Good night and have a wonderful holiday!

Man it has been a long time since I have done this.  I can't believe it has been one whole semester.  OH well what can you do?  I am currently working on some songs to post on here.  Yayy for me.  So hopefully to anyone who actually looks at this, you will see some new stuff soon.  Maybe if I can get the permission from my band, I can start posting our songs up here.  That would be cool too!   We are also hoping as a band to have some recording time coming to us.  I hope that works out so that we can make a CD.  Then I could distribute it to everyone who wants a copy.  Then you could hear the sweet sounds of my lead singer and me playing gre
