The Up-the-Sleeve songs
http://upmysleevesongs.blogspot.com/2003_10_01_archive.html
Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them. Written after a church lock-in while watching the low grey clouds break into rain. Storm clouds building in the western sky. The trees are blooming in the predawn light. The wind is stirring and moving me. From this canyon where i can hardly see. The wind changes and rain begins to fall. Upon this dry and thirsty land. Creation rejoices as it hears Your call,. Come near and drink of Me again".

My struggles in my walk, and my difficulties in my life fleshed out for all to see. I dont have all the answers(even though i once had claimed i did), and i pray that i never will. May my words glorify the Maker and the Savior who made me and died for me. -Andy. Well, sorry about the loss of touch, but i break in to give a little news.and a new link. This is my final post from this space. My new blogging home is here. So come on by and read a while. Thursday, August 26, 2004.

The Up-the-Sleeve songs
http://upmysleevesongs.blogspot.com/2004_05_01_archive.html
Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them. No way i can sleep. For i've already done it too much. This day of this week. But my future's uncertain. And my faith has been tried. By the ghosts and the demons. That i try to hide. Then it all starts again. In the ebb and the flow. And reading the work. I learn from what it tells me. Most of the time. But i'd lie if you asked me. Cause i hate being so dependent. But a new day's come.

Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them. Healing in the Hurting. I am worn and weary from my burden. And my heart longs to be free. From these neverending chains of memory. But i know there is healing in the hurting. Yes i know there is healing in the hurting. The worst weeks seem to follow the best. I guess I know how Elijah felt. When he fled from the top of Carmel. But still i know, there is healing in the hurting. Of who you are.

Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them. Three candles burn bright on the windowsill. To cover red brick with fragrant wax. And bring color to these dull grey walls. That could tell years and years of tales. And I'm up later than i should be. It's a re-rerecurring theme. I've been drawn like a moth to this flame. And i cant find the words to tell myself no. I've been reminded of my own mortality. For my power to destroy far overwhelms.

Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them. Let the words speak for themselves. I see him at the table. And he's talking on the cell phone. To the woman that he loves. He doesnt know I'm watching. And he doesnt know I care. Just trying to go on living. Giving his fish a blank stare. He calls to us on the street. Says, "That's what I like to see. Two young people in love. There isnt anything better". So he gives us each a flower.

Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them. The shaking of my hands. Betray a raging battle. Between my soul and skin. For the hill of my mind. But i'm afraid to fight. Cause i know You will win. And i just want the glory. For myself, for myself. My prideful heart longs for. Someone to fill it up. And blessings of the tongue. And I dont care. Who i have to kill. Just so long as. I get my way, my way. I hide my broken bones.

Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them. My first love song.i think. My heart feels black as night. Coming to my senses. And you still haunt me. You're a ghost i cannot shake. Though years go by. They cant erase the pain. I have no idea. Why these words pour forth. Maybe something in my past. But there's no denying. That i'm deep in love now. And there's no ghost that can. Ever change the fact. Friday, December 05, 2003. I, I am he wh...

Songs that move my heart enough that they need to be shared with others. I just happened to write some of them. It's so hard to hold these horses. From breaking into a run. When that's the only speed they've known. Am i crazy to let myself. I could almost swear i told myself. That this would not happen yet. But i know this feeling. It's all too familiar. Yeah i know this feeling. It's all too familiar. My tongue has no reins. And this forest is your heart. So why cant i keep from burning down.
