I was slippin’ away, losin’ sight of the light,
Watchin’ the stars on the screen livin’ high every night.
Hollywood glitz, celebrities flashin’ their gold,
Glamorizin’ sin like it’s somethin’ to hold.
Oh, why do the wicked seem to have it all?
But Lord, I seek You, and I hear Your call!
Turn from the noise, let the culture fade,
In Your presence, true peace is made!
Mainstream media paints a picture so fine,
Sin looks like freedom, but it’s chains in disguise.
They mock the faithful, sneer at what’s right,
Enticin’ hearts with their worldly delight.
Oh, why do the wicked seem to have it all?
But Lord, I seek You, and I hear Your call!
Turn from the noise, let the culture fade,
In Your presence, true peace is made!
I envied their lives, felt the bitterness grow,
Almost turned away from the God that I know.
But like Asaph, I paused and sought deeper truth,
Saw their end comin’, their glamour a ruse.
Oh, why do the wicked seem to have it all?
But Lord, I seek You, and I hear Your call!
Turn from the noise, let the culture fade,
In Your presence, true peace is made!
Remove the distractions, shut off the screen,
Let go of the idols, come clean and lean.
On God’s faithful promise, His justice will reign,
Confess the envy, break free from the chain!
Oh, why do the wicked seem to have it all?
But Lord, I seek You, and I hear Your call!
Turn from the noise, let the culture fade,
In Your presence, true peace is made!
Now I stand firm, my faith justified,
God is my refuge, forever my guide!
Better than riches, better than fame,
In Him I find joy, praise His holy name!
Halloween’s barely over, still got chocolate on my chin,
Candy wrappers in my pockets, Lord, where do I begin?
I swore I’d start a diet, but that was last July,
Now I’m eyein’ up the turkey with a hungry little sigh.
One bite leads to another, and the buttons strain from bloat,
But who needs breathin’ room when there’s a gravy boat?
Twenty pounds of holiday cheer, comin’ down the line,
From the pumpkin pie marathon to the rum cake divine.
Unbutton my jeans, let the feast begin,
I’ll worry ‘bout the scale when the holidays end!
Yeah, I’m packin’ on the love, one plate at a time,
Twenty pounds of holiday cheer, and it feels so fine!
Thanksgiving turkey is just a warm-up, casseroles stacked high,
Pecan pie and cornbread, brown rice swimmin’ in butter—oh my!
Rolls so soft they melt, stuffin’ piled to the sky,
I loosen up my belt and give another helping a try.
We waddle to the table, laughin’ through the pain,
Knowin’ Christmas cookies are callin’ out my name.
Twenty pounds of holiday cheer, comin’ down the line,
From the pumpkin pie marathon to the rum cake divine.
I’ll worry ‘bout the scale when the holidays end!
Unbutton my jeans, let the feast begin,
Yeah, I’m packin’ on the love, one plate at a time,
Twenty pounds of holiday cheer, and it feels so fine!
Twelve mugs of cocoa with marshmallows on top,
Eleven candy canes I can’t make myself stop,
Ten Christmas cookies, nine peanut butter balls,
Eight chocolate pretzels, seven stuffing calls!
Six pans of fudge, five golden rolls,
Four Christmas dinners, three French hen goals,
Two turtle doves… wait, no—just one more slice of cake,
And a rum-soaked fruitcake that I’ll eat for heaven’s sake!
By New Year’s Eve I’m swayin’, twenty pounds in tow,
Resolutions on the table, but my heart says, “Hell no!”
I’ll toast to all the memories, the laughter and the cheer,
And start the diet tomorrow… or same time next year!
Twenty pounds of holiday cheer, I wear it like a crown,
From Halloween to New Year’s, I ain’t backin’ down.
Unbutton my soul, let the good times roll,
I’ll love every curve when the credits roll!
Yeah, I’m livin’ for the love, one bite at a time,
Twenty pounds of holiday cheer, and it’s all mine!
I’ll diet in January… Or maybe February…
So pass the pie, the fudge, the cake— and don’t you dare judge me!
I’m standin’ in our bedroom, where the silence screams your name,
Your old flannel’s on the chair, but it don’t feel the same.
The scent of your cologne still lingers in the air,
I’m searchin’ for a reason, but your ghost is all that’s there.
Did I push you out the door, or did you choose to roam?
My heart’s askin’ questions, in this house that ain’t a home.
(Chorus)
In this room, where we loved, where we laughed, where we dreamed,
I’m haunted by the memories of a life that’s torn at the seams.
Tell me, my love, why’d you leave me alone?
In this room, I’m just a shadow, in a place we called our own.
I trace the cracks in the walls, where we carved our hopes and plans,
Your boots by the door, still caked with red dirt from our land.
Was it somethin’ I said, or a fight we couldn’t mend?
I’m wonderin’ if you’re missin’ me, or if this is the end.
Did I hold you too tight, or not tight enough to stay?
I’m drownin’ in the what-ifs, as the nights turn into days.
(Chorus)
In this room, where we loved, where we laughed, where we dreamed,
I’m haunted by the memories of a life that’s torn at the seams.
Tell me, my love, why’d you leave me alone?
In this room, I’m just a shadow, in a place we called our own.
I keep your pillow close, though it’s cold as the truth,
Prayin’ you’ll walk back through that door, like you used to do.
Was it freedom you were chasin’, or a heart that wasn’t mine?
I’d give anything to turn back the hands of time.
The radio plays soft, an old song we used to sing,
I’m swayin’ in the dark, holdin’ onto everything.
I whisper to the walls, “Will he ever come back home?”
But the echoes only answer with a lonesome, mournful tone.
(Chorus)
In this room, where we loved, where we laughed, where we dreamed,
I’m haunted by the memories of a life that’s torn at the seams.
Tell me, my love, why’d you leave me alone?
In this room, I’m just a shadow, in a place we called our own.
I’m standin’ in our bedroom, where your memory still resides,
With a heart full of love, and tears I can’t hide.
Tell me, my love, will you ever come home?
In this room, I’ll wait forever, though I’m standin’ here alone.
Verse 1
You were my Prince Charming, my knight in faded jeans,
My heart lit up like fireflies when you stepped on the scene.
We’d drive those country backroads, watch the sun sink low,
But that first sweet kiss we shared—now it’s a bitter show.
Chorus
I’m your worst nightmare, your ex-wife on a tear,
Gonna burn your world down, leave you gaspin’ for air.
I’ll lie, I’ll cheat, I’ll do what I gotta do,
I’m determined, darlin’, to ruin you.
Verse 2
I cooked your eggs at sunrise, your steak when day was done,
Thought we’d last forever, but you went and cut and run.
That fight tore us apart, left me cryin’ in the rain,
Now I’m claimin’ that old house, and you’ll feel my pain.
Chorus
I’m your worst nightmare, your ex-wife on a tear,
Gonna burn your world down, leave you gaspin’ for air.
I’ll lie, I’ll cheat, I’ll do what I gotta do,
I’m determined, darlin’, to ruin you.
Verse 3
I’ll tell the cops you shoved me, let ‘em haul you downtown,
Paint you as a monster with a cold, hard frown.
I’ll cry to your sweet mama, say you cheated every night,
Spin a web of pretty lies ‘til you’re readin’ your last rites.
Bridge
You called me crazy, oh, you crossed that line,
Now this fire in my heart’s gonna make you pine.
From your boss to your buddies, I’ll spread the word around,
You’ll be livin’ in the poorhouse when my storm comes crashin’ down.
Chorus
I’m your worst nightmare, your ex-wife on a tear,
Gonna burn your world down, leave you gaspin’ for air.
I’ll lie, I’ll cheat, I’ll do what I gotta do,
I’m determined, darlin’, to ruin you.
Verse 4
I’ll charm your friends with smiles, so sweet they’ll never see,
The venom in my heart that’s aimed at buryin’ thee.
I’ll tell your boss you’re stealin’, make him doubt your every move,
There’s nowhere you can hide, boy, I’ve got nothin’ left to lose.
Chorus
I’m your worst nightmare, your ex-wife on a tear,
Gonna burn your world down, leave you gaspin’ for air.
I’ll lie, I’ll cheat, I’ll do what I gotta do,
I’m determined, darlin’, to ruin you.
Outro
You thought I was just naggin’, just an old hag in your eyes,
But this town believes my story, not your desperate alibis.
So raise a glass to karma, ‘cause I’m settin’ it loose,
Your ex-wife’s got a vendetta, and you’re swingin’ in her noose.

Moonlight on My Heart
Lyrics written by Kerry Wood
Verse 1
Sittin’ on this porch swing, under a velvet sky,
His shadow in the moonlight makes my heart reach up and fly.
His kindness pulls me closer, like a fire in the dark,
But I’m wonderin’ if he’s ready to let me hold his heart.
Pre-Chorus
Does he feel my soul burnin’, achin’ for his touch?
Or know this love I’m holdin’ is growin’ way too much?
Chorus
Moonlight on my heart, it’s callin’ out his name,
I’m fallin’ for a man who might not feel the same.
I’m longin’ to be near him, but his past still holds him tight,
I’m prayin’ he’ll let me love him, in the moonlight tonight.
Verse 2
I see the weight he carries, from a love that left him cold,
Scars that make him hesitate, keep his heart on hold.
I wanna wrap my arms around him, chase those shadows far away,
But I’m scared to push too hard, in case he don’t wanna stay.
Pre-Chorus
Does he see my heart yearnin’, in the quiet of this night?
Or know I’d give it all to make his broken heart feel right?
Chorus
Moonlight on my heart, it’s callin’ out his name,
I’m fallin’ for a man who might not feel the same.
I’m longin’ to be near him, but his past still holds him tight,
I’m prayin’ he’ll let me love him, in the moonlight tonight.
Bridge
For every hurt he’s carried, I’d trade my heart to mend,
Show him love ain’t always pain, but a start that never ends.
Just one sign, my darlin’, that you’re willin’ to try,
Let me be the one to dry those tears you hide inside.
Verse 3
He’s standin’ by the oak tree, where the fireflies softly glow,
A vision of the man I love, more than he’ll ever know.
I’m dreamin’ of a future, where his heart beats close to mine,
But tonight I’m just a woman, waitin’ for a hopeful sign.
Chorus
Moonlight on my heart, it’s callin’ out his name,
I’m fallin’ for a man who might not feel the same.
I’m longin’ to be near him, but his past still holds him tight,
I’m prayin’ he’ll let me love him, in the moonlight tonight.
Outro
Under this old moon, my love’s a whispered prayer,
Hopin’ he’ll turn and find me, standin’ waitin’ there.
With moonlight on my heart, I’ll hold this love so tight,
Dreamin’ he’ll be mine forever, in the moonlight tonight.
Verse 1
They talk of rights, but end the unborn’s spark,
Say it’s for freedom, while they’re tearin’ out the heart.
Men in women’s games, swingin’ fists with no remorse,
The Left’s cheerin’ loud, while they’re changin’ up the course.
Chorus
They’re rippin’ the country apart, piece by piece,
With their lies on the news, no truth, no peace.
Gaslightin’ folks, blamin’ us for their sins,
The communist Left, where the evil begins.
Verse 2
They call it healthcare, but it’s harm they bring to kids,
Mutilatin’ young ones, doin’ what the good forbid.
Fake news on their side, spinnin’ tales from dusk to dawn,
Pointin’ fingers at the righteous, while their own lies carry on.
Chorus
They’re rippin’ the country apart, piece by piece,
With their lies on the news, no truth, no peace.
Gaslightin’ folks, blamin’ us for their sins,
The communist Left, where the evil begins.
Verse 3
They say they’re for the people, but their hands are stained with greed,
Backin’ waste and fraud, ignorin’ what we need.
The border’s wide open, fentanyl and pain pour through,
Murder, rape, and traffickin’—their hands are bloody too.
Bridge
It’s good against evil, the lines are drawn so clear,
They’re fightin’ for destruction, spreadin’ chaos and fear.
We didn’t start this battle, but we’ll stand up tall and fight,
For our kids and their future, we’ll take on the dark tonight.
Chorus
They’re rippin’ the country apart, piece by piece,
With their lies on the news, no truth, no peace.
Gaslightin’ folks, blamin’ us for their sins,
The communist Left, where the evil begins.
Outro
Evil won’t go quiet, it’s a war we didn’t choose,
But for peace and our children, we’ve got too much to lose.
We’ll stand against their tyranny, till their darkness fades away,
For the heart of this country, we’ll fight another day.
