Lost For Words
02:54

I’m lost for words, I'm sorry
I wish I knew what to say
But I'm lost for words
I'm sorry, I wish I knew
How to take away the pain
But I'm lost for words
I’m lost for words, I'm sorry
I wish I knew what to say
But I'm lost for words
I'm sorry, I wish I knew
How to take away the pain
But I'm lost for words
I’m lost for words, I'm sorry
I wish I knew what to say
But I'm lost for words

Alone
07:26
|

Here in my creative space
As gold and diamonds turn to waste
I think I need to see your face
To free my mind again
Keep me warm as I scrape this pen
Help me shake off this hesitance
I'm struggling to find the strength
Since we lost our friend
I've been afraid to open up
Admit to myself how it’s messed me up
It's bound and tied this open book
The words no longer flow
So take my hand, be my guide
I don’t know why I chose to hide
I can’t even begin to try
To find the answers alone
I can’t stand to be alone tonight
To be alone tonight
To be alone tonight
I need to hold you tight
My heart can’t stand to be alone tonight
To be alone tonight
To be alone

Bump In The Road
04:08
|
|||
There's a small and misty dark room
In the corner of my mind
Sometimes this is where my rationality will hide
From the demons that I’ve always feared to fight
There's a hard and heavy weight
That hovers just above my chest
Sometimes it will clamp its self down tighter than my vest
Whenever darkness puts me to the test
But fear is nothing but a bump in the road
You either let it stop you or you
Plough right through and learn to let it go
Once you face then you’ll wonder why you feared it all along
There's an ever-knowing wise man
Still learning from his books
Sometimes he will raise his eyes, to give a certain look
When he disapproves of certain roads I've took
But mistakes are nothing but a bump in the road
You either let them stop you or you
Plough right through and learn to let them go
Once you’ve learned from them, you’ll wonder why you made them all along
Cause you can do anything you put your mind to
As long as you believe it then it’s true
And there are no dreams that are impossible to reach
Once you’ve opened up your heart and let them in
There's a little childlike quiver
That’s been hiding in my throat
Sometimes it will ponce just as I'm reaching for that note
That one that I can never seem to hold
But limits are nothing but a bump in the road
You either let them stop you or you
Or you plough right through and learn to let them go
Once you break them down, you’ll wonder why you set them all along
Remember you are strong

Blank Page

I’ve got a blank page
I can’t seem to fill it
I've got a blank page
I can’t seem to fill it
I've got a blank page
I can’t seem to fill it
No, I can’t seem to fill it

Tryna Make Sense
03:33
|
|||
Could I be wasting my time
Trying to focus on the things that don’t really matter
Could I be losing my mind
Tryna make sense of it all
Well I just wanna be
That person inside of me
The one that used to beam
The one that used to dream
Could I be out of this game
Tryna hold on to something that’s already gone
Could I be out of my tree
Tryna make sense of it all
Well I just wanna be
That person inside of me
The one that used to beam
The one that used to dream
Yeah, I just wanna be
That person inside of me
The one that used to beam
The one that used to dream
Well, I can honestly tell you I feel like a loser
And I can honestly say I know nothing at all
It may be time for me to throw in the towel and hang my boots up
But what the hell do I know?
Nothing at all
Could I be stuck in a rut
Playing reruns of a movie that I'm sick of seeing
I could be shooting the breeze
Tryna make sense of it all
Well I just wanna be
That person inside of me
The one that used to beam
The one that used to dream
Yeah, I just wanna be
That person inside of me
The one that used to beam
The one that used to dream

Wings
03:40
|
|||
Join me in the comfort of this candle light
That flickers like the stars
The stars
Trust in what you’re feeling and I'll
Take away those everlasting scars
Those scars
Hold my hand a little tighter tonight
My heart has never ventured out this far
This far
I never knew that I had wings
Before I met you
You bring this bird to life
And you let him fly
Let's stay above the clouds a while
Forget the world below
Below
We'll let the wind force the tears from our eyes as we
Set our site upon magic worlds unknown
Unknown
I never knew that I had wings
Before I met you
You bring this bird to life
And you let him fly
I never believed I could really sing
Until I met you
You bring this bird to life
And the sky is ours tonight
So we'll let the wind force the tears from our eyes
And set our site upon magic worlds unknown
Unknown
I never knew that I had wings
Before I met you
You bring this bird to life
And you let him fly
I never believed I could really sing
Until I met you
You bring this bird to life
And the sky is ours tonight

Our Time
03:58
|
|||
Another decade gone
I have to admit, it’s been my favourite one
We've had ups and downs
We’ve been thrown around in a cyclone as we’ve grown
And we’ve chased our tails
Searching for the next junction in the road
But it’s all felt like it’s been part of a plan
For what’s about to unfold
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
You see we’ve knuckled down
We've grafted our fingers to the bone
We've put in the time, mastered the patients
Now let's go
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
And it feels so right
Like it was written in the stars for us
To grit our teeth and bide our time
And I feel so alive
Like I’ve got magic in my soul tonight
So buckle up and hold on tight
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now
This is our time, this is our time
This is our time, this is our time right now

Born Of Greed
04:20
|
|||
I've got desperate thoughts clouding my focus
Like some unwitted victim of some hocus pocus
Trying to lift of this curse any desperate way that he can
And I plead with them to free me, cause I'm so sick of being
Curled up in this corner while the others are seeing
Their aspirations and dreams blooming into life
And then clarity calls and has a word in my ear
I should be so grateful, I'm still physically here
And my focus turns to the ones that were taken to soon
You see, it’s easy to grumble
It's easy to moan
It's easy to kid yourself
The universe owes you something
But the truth is
It doesn’t owe you anything at all
It's hard to satisfied
Grateful, content
It's hard to accept that maybe
This was all meant to be
That’s just our natural way to be
In the 21st century
We're all born of greed
In the 21st century
We're all born of greed
In the 21st century
We're all born of greed
In the 21st century
We're all born of greed
In the 21st century
You see, it’s easy to grumble
It's easy to moan
It's easy to kid yourself
The universe owes you something
But the truth is
It doesn’t owe you anything at all
It's hard to satisfied
Grateful, content
It's hard to accept that maybe
This was all meant to be
That’s just our natural way to be
In the 21st century

Stare At The Wall
05:13
|
|||
When I was small
I'd stare at the wall
Where patterns of lights drew holes
Deep enough to fall into
And I
Got so afraid to look away
With fear that I'd never see them again
I lost that ability when I was eight
I still look for them today
When I was young
I knew how to have fun
A random stick was a gun
Real enough to make me run
And I
Got so immersed, I'd flea and hide
Fear of capture and losing a life
Those illusions faded by the age of nine
Oh, such a simpler mind
When I was a teen
I'd dare to dream
If I told you some things I've seen
Well, they’d make you scream your heart out
And I
Felt so tormented I had to escape
I'd do anything to stay out of my brain
I kicked those habits a little too late
Well, let's put that down to fate
These days I feel old
And when I stare at the wall
There's patterns of nothing but mould
Black enough to take a hold
And I
Get so afraid of everything
Places I'm going, places I've been
But if I could go back to way back when
I'd do it all the same again

Written
04:43
|

All my sneers, all my cheers
All my conquests, all my fears
All my losses, all my wins
All my good deeds, all my sins
My hellos, my see ya laters
All my lovers, all my haters
All my new friends, all my roots
All the dead leaves, all the shoots
All the rich, all the poor
All the good times, all the war
All the lost, all the found
All above, or underground
All the weak, all the strong
All the right, all the wrong
Are we right where we belong?
Was this written all along?
