Flame
05:22
|
|||
|
The wall is an off-white colour
Drapes are drawn, like my mood
I’m gonna lay here for a while
And let life become one big pile
If I were to explain
It’s like something is trying to put out your flame
If I were to explain
It’s like something is trying to put out your flame
The room is mildly chilled
It’s the middle of winter
The windows run ceiling to floor
This is where I’m going to restore
Some tiles in the hall are worn
In the middle where people have walked
I’m going to stay here for tonight
I’ll close my eyes and all will be right
If I were to explain
It’s like something is trying to put out your flame
If I were to explain
It’s like something is trying to put out your flame

Be Love
03:34

There’s a truth when they say
Hurt people hurt people
Be love
I want to be love
Be love
I want to be love
Be everything
The good, the bad, the “something”
That’s what we’ll pass along
That we stayed strong
Be love
I want to be love
Be love
I want to be love
This love will always be clear
This love will always be near

700 Days
03:06
|
|||
|
May I please have my life back?
I’d like to share what I can give
I guess it’s just one way to live
700 days
I want them back
700 days you can’t retract
Maybe I’ll find a meaning
I’d like to find it within this
I guess we’ll have to try to coexist
700 days
Taken from me
700 days changes priorities
700 days
I want them back
700 days you can’t retract
700 days
Taken from me
700 days changes priorities

Letters In A Swarm
03:39
|

All of these letters
All of these letters, they swirl around in my head
They’re having trouble
They’re having trouble being said
All of these letters
All of these letters, they swirl around in my head
They’re having trouble
They’re having trouble being said
Words cannot be formed from these letters in a swarm
I’ll continue to brainstorm but the letters, they won’t transform
My mind is blank
My mind is blank
I cannot say anything
Lay in the dark
Lay in the dark
It’s infuriating
My mind is blank
My mind is blank
I cannot say anything
Lay in the dark
Lay in the dark
It’s infuriating
Words cannot be formed from these letters in a swarm
I’ll continue to brainstorm but the letters, they won’t transform
I’m going to unpack my counterattack
it’s time to push on
I’m going to unpack my counterattack
it’s time to push on

Running
02:57
|
|||
|
Spinning around
Feet on the ground have not moved forward
Hello, socially awkward
I feel I’ve hit the ground running
I’m running, and running and running
I feel I’ve hit the ground running
I’m running, and running and running
People passing by
Living on the fly
Found myself lost
Ignoring at what cost?
I feel I’ve hit the ground running
I’m running, and running and running
I feel I’ve hit the ground running
I’m running, and running and running

Stand Tall
04:55
|
|||
|
Character is built
Like bricks in a path
Some may walk along
or quickly dash
The picture is not full
Looking forward or back
It’s more of an overview
Like an outline of a track
Every stone in this wall
Represents an answered call
We all at some point fall
We get back up
Stand tall
