Adding to Simplicity Album #lorijeanfinnila #singersongwriter #album #coronavirus #staystrong #domesticviolence

I picked four songs that I felt go well with my Simplicity album at bandcamp. Please follow along as I work on these when hopefully this fog in my throat clears as our air gets better.

They are as follows:

Rise Above with special thanks to Minor2Go Music

Verse

When I write my hand hurts

When I think my head aches

My eyes blur

when this happens

all I feel …..are the nerves

Chorus

You are the beast of heaven

though I'm feeling bruised,

torn and braised

I will rise above with you

Verse

I'm bouncing

When I'm happy with joy

I feel I'm blessed

when I feel I can anticipate

your direction

and knowing where I'm at

when..... you're around

Chorus

Verse

I can walk though it hurts

I can stand tall

though when I ride

it feels I'm falling

every time I come back.... again

Bridge

There's no sense of this direction

I know fate has its purpose

I was meant to see you

and be with you in.... every way

Chorus

I will rise above and sit beside you

Tears Turn
by Lori Jean Finnila with special thanks to  Minor2Go Music
 

Verse

Please love, listen to me....

I was raised not to talk

about all the things done

It seems hard to function.

Chorus

I could sit down and cry

till my tears turn to falls

or I can pick myself up

and joy that is meant for me right now

Verse

The farmers boots don't hurt me

The free food, gas and water I don't mind

I just want to put everything in a box

where I feel there's no harm

Chorus

Verse

I could look deeper than what's necessary

or see what's in front of me

I can't think of one day without you

You brought my life and happiness back to me

Bridge

I'm sorry for the pasts that's burdened me 

has left you at times all alone.

I get ridiculed for my cutting words

my flesh too botched for heaven

Chorus

I could sit down and cry

my tears turn to falls

repeat

Right Here by Lori Jean Finnila

Verse

I see the man

stand still in the park

park is empty

I know there is more too

Chorus

This day is more important everyday

I feel this to you

from the message from above

and inside of me

Verse

Another stares with a frown

the humble reaches

for a question to be answered

all is fine

I'm right here with you

Chorus

Verse

I know you're scared

But I'm scared too

I listen to all the comments

trying to reach to you

Bridge

My mind has never been taken so far

even with all the tiniest darkest corners of our world

just takes a moment to forget this

when I can still feel

the warm hand in mine

Chorus

I'm right here with you

right here with you

I'm right here with you

right here with you

Way Too Early
So Close to God
I'll Stand Strong
Leave This World
