Thief

 

I
am a thief, I am a murderer

Walking
up this lonely hill

What
have I done? No, I don't remember

No
one knows just how I feel

And
I know that my time is coming soon

 

It's
been so long, oh, such a long time

Since
I've lived with peace and rest

Now
I am here, my destination

I
guess things work for the best

And
I know that my time is coming soon

 

Who
is this man? This man beside me

They
call the King of the Jews

They
don't believe that He's the Messiah

But
somehow, I know it's true

 

They
laugh at Him in mockery

And
they beat Him 'til He bleeds

And
they nail Him to the rugged cross

They
raise Him, they raise Him up next to me

 

My
time has come and I'm slowly fading

I
deserve what I receive

Jesus
when You are in Your kingdom

Could
you please, please remember me?

 

And
He looks at me still holding on

The
tears fall from His eyes

And
He says I tell the truth

Today,
you will be with Me in paradise

And
I know that my time, yes, my time is coming soon

And
I know Paradise, Paradise is coming soon

 

 

Third
Day

“Hmm... sorry folks. Let's try that again...

And I know Paradise, Paradise is coming soon


Third Day”

“Dead, you will lie under a yard of earth,
Far from daylight and all delighting.
So drain the cup; take your pleasures undiluted;
Embrace that beautiful girl, your wife;
And pin no hopes on "immortal wisdom":
Cleanthes and Zeno lie as deep as any.
Marcus Argentarius”

“"Home is a place that, when you go there, they have to take you in."
-Robert Frost”

-George Bernard Shaw”

“"If you're born ugly, tough sh!t"
-My roommate on plastic surgery”
