Progress Isn't A Straight Line
by Luke Knodel

Lyrics:

[Chorus: Megan Jette]
I’m hurting
Can anyone hear?
My cry for help
Lord tell me that you’re near
And I’m lonely
Oh I’m so stressed out
I’m begging for your mercy
Please save me from myself

[Verse 1: Luke Knodel]
And I’m weary
I’m chained up all by myself
And I’m lonely
Lord I’m needing your help
Waking up and I’m feeling numb, is it cause I’m growing up?
Or is it cause I’m apathetic? Living life just showing up
Where’s hope and love? Is it in me? Nowadays I see things so dimly
Is it just because I’m so busy? Or that I’ve felt almost every feeling
This world can offer? Life it’s only getting harder
I wish I had a perception stronger, or is my mind tricking me? I’m envisioning
That that time was better, I’ll always treasure my memories but I’m looking forward
To nicer weather, I’m missing all of our times together, so

[Chorus: Megan Jette]
I’m hurting
Can anyone hear?
My cry for help
Lord tell me that you’re near
And I’m lonely
Oh I’m so stressed out
I’m begging for your mercy
Please save me from myself

[Verse 2: Luke Knodel]
I’ve been feeling worried, making new friends is hard
Everything is blurry and surely I don’t let down my guard
Friendships temporary, it’s very scary, I’m wary
And barely have any time that is set aside to recharge
If things don’t get done then I’m falling behind, if I’m not productive I’m out of my mind
What is the time? What’s my assignment? When is it due? Gotta do it fore writing, ooh
Haven’t even started working yet and I’m stressed,
There’s so much on my chest and I’m confessing that I’m a mess
I hate forgetting names and bad handshakes, man it’s really lame, that I can’t break
Any of these chains, that I’m held with, I don’t wanna claim, that I’m selfish
Cause life’s about me and the way that I feel, I know that it’s not but that seems so ideal
Looking to God for the meaning of real, loving the people’s my purpose revealed

[Chorus: Megan Jette]
I’m hurting
Can anyone hear?
My cry for help
Lord tell me that you’re near
And I’m lonely
Oh I’m so stressed out
I’m begging for your mercy
Please save me from myself
