Should Have Lasted Years First things first Everyone falls sometimes You’ve seen the worst Words belied actions we carry on trying Did we expect too much? upon closer inspection, there is a revelation through white noise a whisper/cloaked in some strange power It was all rehearsed Everyone would see a new me A tower built On promises never filled All The Gravity defying Revealed as the stunt it was, it was The worms come out When it rains Got me spooked I’m running trying to hide (but I can’t escape your light) upon closer inspection, there is a revelation through white noise a whisper/cloaked in some strange power keep yearning, keep fighting don't ever stop trying, give into the process of living and dying A break in my stride Trying to pull the thorns from my eyes Before long I’m stranded, forgotten who I am And what We Were just to break the silence, ill let you go to fall on your own again break the silence Wont you settle your mind You don’t have to strive so This is your pace and your time boy Once you settle your mind You don’t have to strive so So dig in to this life and leave regret behind

Recognition 05:40
People, people live in tension dont want to pass through life, without some recognition We dress up / Accumulate the best of Yes sir i know what its like then the silence of winter seems To pull me down / til I get what I really need now a broken dream \ can bring a man to his knees embrace that lower place\ where pain brings clarity It’s a take-all, mans selfish composition Poisons the best of hearts with indiscrimination It feeds on our fears and isolation Shows us our lack when the burdens stacked then the silence of winter seems To pull me down / til I get what I really need now a broken dream \ can bring a man to his knees embrace that lower place\ where pain brings clarity You Spend your life/ fighting for/ an honest wage While dreams are / tucked away For an existence so plain It's not too late / to ask yourself Does it bring me joy We don’t live on bread alone Yet here we toil picking crumbs inspired by the tv / pining for normality For a counterfeit, a mirage While what’s of worth is sabotaged Freefall we fall in desperation Without a glimpse of light in our Situation We neglect love, looking for a shortcut while the rest of the world is on fire then the silence of winter seems To pull me down / til I get what I really need now a broken dream \ can bring a man to his knees embrace that lower place\ where pain brings clarity

Today, today is just another day. but there's a moment When the sun is shining through your hair and a new song with all the right phrases is playing and I'm alright when I hear your sound the harmony Your music moves me like nothing can In this moment I want to stay and you feel the same way too thats why we can carry on like we do Today, today you tore my wall down When least expected, you met me where I didn't think you’d come Now a new song with all the right phrases Is playing and I’m alive

Head in the clouds I’ve been a fool While I should've been fighting I was laying low Tell ya little something You may know about If you waste your moment in the sun (Then) Place your bets that life will come around blazing up our time Up to nothing good Amazing that we're here after all that we pulled I’ve changed up my act Just to switch it right back Tell ya little something You may know about When you look for pearls in apathy (Then) Place your bets that life will come around Place your bets that life will come around Knocking off your crown Please don’t take this lying down Your mistakes don’t seal your fate When you rise with the gloves on You're a Cannon bomb Place your bets that life will come around Place your bets that life will come around Knocking off your crown

Beam 05:47
Its pure motivation when a vision for life starts shaping Now that the wheels are spinning I am reeling to grab a hold Stop the second guessing You gotta nurture fascinations Capture the animation when your colors in the heart start forming create, refine what's in your heart don't let it wilt away create, refine what's in your heart Compose with flaws, your all You’ll find your way, Trust your gut Disregard what some say They only wish to do the same Don’t let them snuff your light Your out of ordinary ways Are exactly what we need So pull your foot from off the brake Your lanes wide open now
