Rant, Rave, Bliss of a Kiss

The lipstick stain of an embedded kiss, placed so gently upon the sky. Where the sun of gold is falling dark, calling the stars to shine the night.
Like a scattered glitter with a sparkle so silver covering black construction paper. And the rays of the moonlight beam dance throughout my imaginary dream.
Glitter falls from the sky, graces us with its embrace. You sparkle, I twinkle, together we glow. Don't ever let go. Lock me in your arms, throw away the key. Now I wish upon a star, moments like these are for only you and only me.
For your insecurities, I sincerely apologize. Harm is not my name, soon you will realize. Business of mine is not where your nose belongs. Try your time on someone else cuz it's not me who's doing wrong.

Don't let your weakness pull you down to your knees. Keep your back straight and stand tall with pride. For you have no shame, no reason to hide.

Why Time Stands Still

Time Stands Still only in a photograph

Like hitting pause in the middle of a laugh
You're ready to feel the bounce in your toes
Needing the next beat to pulse into your soul

Dancin' to the feelin' of heart pouding rhythm

A picture only shows a one-second-time-frame

And the groovin' is movin', so damnit, hit play
Capture what's real, show the world how you feel

In that moment where Time Stands Still

Kiss Of An Angel

After 2 years of an empty feeling and not having complete faith believing in myself or my faith in the Lord, I experienced a wonderful emotion that filled my emptiness. This is what I started writing and my friend Travis helped me with some of the lyrics and added his beautiful voice and guitar to the song.

Written by Meghan "Gem" Stegall & Dalton Travis Gray



I felt the shock wave of a kiss
That came from the lips of an Angel
With delicate lips
She let's me know what love is
With a Heavenly twist

My faith has been tested
But my mind is now rested
My cry of plea
Is now whispered ease
The touch of silence
It was the kiss of an Angel
The kiss of an Angel

She's a soft lift candle
A fire deep inside
She's the roses and wine kind
She's the only tear
That's worth any of my crying
It came from kiss of an Angel

She's strength, she's love
She was sent to me from above
She's the kisss of an angel
Sent from above

I get high on that love
Like a heavenly wind
That blew in from the kiss
That came from the lips of an Angel
The kiss of a Heavenly Angel
A heavenly Angel
The kiss of an Angel

Black and Blue Rain

This particular song is about letting go of pain. As always, every song of mine can be seen in many different perspectives. Maybe you'll relate? The Black and Blue Rain hurts so bad that it leaves you numb, doesn't allow pain to exist anymore. Black and blue are also colors of bruises and bruises are signs of being hurt. Take it how you will and interpret it from your own perspective.



She runs out the door
And collapsed to her knees.
Throws her head back
And she raised her hands high.
A shower of teardrops
Escape from the sky
And one by one, she feels every sting.
Soaking up her skin, rollin' off her cheeks.

And she cries to the sky
Wash me clean, let it sting
Leave me numb, Oh please, God's Son
Let me feel the pain, I need Black and Blue Rain.

There will always be scars
That remind her of the past.
Memory isn't etch-a-sketch easy.
Shake and erase doesn't work on pain.
The only cure is Black and Blue Rain.

And she cries to the sky
Wash me clean, let it sting
Leave me numb, Oh please, God's Son
Let me feel the pain, I need Black and Blue Rain

The blackest blue he gave her
Would be the last damn time
Cuz now she's six feet under
Walls of stone, where her broken bones lay alone.
She's the only angel with tears for cryin'
Cuz everyone needs a little Black and Blue Rain

Drench me in Black and Blue Rain
