Band Members:Hello, I'm Melissa Andress, Singer / Songwriter. I hope my lyrics will touch you as they have touched my life. Through my songs, I have found growth and healing. I have been raised from a depressed spirit into a lilly of the field through God's love. Music can open the door to healing wounds and emotions from our past. God is the God of second chances..He is a God of Love and Compassion! Through my mistakes, i have found forgiveness, grace, and mercy. If you are going through a tough time in your life right now..know that God wants you to cast all your cares on him. When we give him everything ,we win. As long as we love people, God will do the rest! It's all about LOVE!All of these lines across my face Tell you the story of who I am So many stories of where I've been And how I got to where I am But these stories don't mean anything When you've got no one to tell them to It's true...I was made for you I climbed across the mountain tops Swam all across the ocean blue I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules But baby I broke them all for you Because even when I was flat broke You made me feel like a million bucks Yeah you do and I was made for you You see the smile that's on my mouth Is hiding the words that don't come out And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed They don't know my head is a mess No, they don't know who I really am And they don't know what I've been through but you do And I was made for you... -Brandi Carlile
