Save Me From Myself

Hey guys! 

So about a couple of weeks ago I was really going through a tough time. I felt a sense of emptiness accompanied with extreme loneliness. As I sat in my room, I felt like I should write a song, so I did. 
I poured my heart out on the page in hopes of not only my words being therapeutic for me but also for others who were/are in the same boat. 

Loneliness, sadness, anger, etc, are things everyone has felt before. It's just some may feel these feelings more often that others. Regardless of how long you feel this way, I want you to know you're not alone. 

I just created the lyric video to the A Capella version of my song, Save Me From Myself. I downloaded CakeWalk's Music Creator 7 in hopes to create music with my vocals but that software is so stinkin' difficult to figure out despite their tagline of, "No musical experience? No problem!" then goes on to say how easy of a program it is to use. And I've had 18+ years musical experience! Even the tutorial videos don't do a lot of good. There aren't many tutorials out there for this program yet.

Along with this, my PC basically fell apart. Wouldn't connect to the internet without a direct connection via cable to router. So I ordered a 2009 Macbook on ebay and I just got it today. I used iMovie to make my lyric video but haven't gotten the chance to check out GarageBand. From what I've seen through YouTube tutorials, it looks pretty simple and straight forward along with delivering the tools Music Creator 7 offers. 

But anywho, I plan to play around with GarageBand this weekend and get some music set up with my vocals. If I ever get it "perfected" I plan to make a music video to my song. I'm really looking forward to this!

To Save A Life lyrics

Hey guys, I wrote this two years ago. God laid this song on my heart to write. I was just sitting there thinking of how so many people around the world are hurting. Even those who look completely happy and perfect on the outside have a deep need on the inside that no one may even know about. I believe that we can be so unaware of how we can effect others around us. Your smile could mean saving a life to someone you locked eyes with at the grocery store, the mall, or wherever. You don't even know the person, but it gives them a spark of hope that keeps them going on.

To Save A Life written by Brooke-Lauren Montgomery

She thinks she's all alone and nobody knows what she's going through.
She's crying out for someone, just for someone to reach out and show they care.
We can be so unaware that the little things we do may save a person's life:

Have you ever felt the weight of the world upon your shoulders?
I've felt it, I've felt it.
Have you never been the toy that needs to be wound to make it through the day?
I've been there, I've been there.
Have you never wished for someone to let you know that they are there?
I've done it, I've done it.
Don't you know that God through us could give them hope to carry on?


He sits alone tonight putting up a fight with things that plaque his mind,
Waiting for someone who will be a listening ear to what he holds inside.
We can be so unaware that the little things we do may save a person's life:


Have you ever felt the weight of the world upon your shoulders?
I've felt it, I've felt it.
Have you never been the toy that needs to be wound to make it through the day?
I've been there, I've been there.
Have you never wished for someone to let you know that they are there?
I've done it, I've done it.
Don't you know that God through us could give them hope to carry on?


He holds a gun in his shaky left hand,
She grips a bottle of pills, twisting the cap.
Two different people with different stories,
They hold their precious lives in their hands.
Will you take the time to show you care?
A simple smile could save a person's life:


Have you ever felt the weight of the world upon your shoulders?
I've felt it, I've felt it.
Have you never been the toy that needs to be wound to make it through the day?
I've been there, I've been there.
Have you never wished for someone to let you know that they are there?
I've done it, I've done it.
Don't you know that God through us could give them hope to carry on?


She thinks she's all alone and nobody knows what she's going through,
He sits alone tonight putting up a fight with things that plague his mind.
