Be Known

(Izzy Douma)

Being known is what many of us strive to do. "Be Known" is a song about being known without having to change, seek out attention, etc. (Being known by a Creator if you will?)

I sit alone 
I sit unknown 
I can feel your midst 
In my helplessness 

I stand awake 
I stand and undertake 
another beating, 
of the world around me 

Although I am shy 
You still come by 
I am known by you 
I am known by you 

Although I am tired 
I still seek you 
to be known by you 
to be known by you 

I sit, head down 
I want to drown 
in the ghost of you 
guarded by you 

Although I am shy 
You still come by 
I am known by you 
I am known by you 

Although I am tired 
I still seek you 
to be known by you 
to be known by you 

So here I sit, waiting for you 
Knowing you''ll come 
It's what you do

So here I stand, my arms are open 
my heart is open 
for what you will do 

So I can be known by you 
I wanna be known by you 

I sit alone 
I sit unknown 
Until I am found by you 
I will be known by you

Alone (I Wish)

By Izzy Douma

In my late Sophomore year of high school, I was forced to move away from the friends that were important to me. After facing the realization that I would be leaving for good, it dawned upon me that I never appreciated those friends enough. I spent my time there dealing with insecurity and fear of getting close to them. "Alone" focuses on my feelings for one friend in particular who I was always too afraid to talk to (mostly because he was popular) and the longing to see him again.

Natural Order

By Brian Hendrix

This is a song I wrote inspired by my father, who passed away a year ago. I wrote this a few months after he passed. The way I wrapped my head around it finally was reaching the realization that this is simply the "natural order" of life. We love. We laugh. But mostly, we lose. We lose what we have and what we gain, and it's something that unifies us. As divided as we are in this world, we never seem to take the time to realize that we're all going through the same stuff. We're all at the mercy of the natural order. Country song from a male perspective.
