Lyrics

We all have stories So what’s yours Is it great Or are the pages old and torn Do you take another pace Or step back when at the door Do you look over horizons See change And then pause And think back to all to you know How could you let that go But these things you keep Aren’t always the things you need And sometimes letting go Is how you’ll learn to breathe Because you’ve been carrying this baggage Now you’re aching at the knees Legs are failing Arms are heavy Pain can run forever So try walking Moving steady When you’re pushed against your boundaries Don’t strain against the ropes If you fall into the waters Instead of swimming Try and float Because stories are like seasons And with time these seasons change You’ll get sun and snow and rain and clouds And all of that’s ok You don’t need to take an action If reactions cause you grief Soon tomorrow will be today Another chance for you to breathe Clothes are laying on the floor With holes in every shirt Jeans hung up on bedroom doors With lights that never work This room is made of from momma’s bones She made me feel some worth I knew I’d need to say goodbye to it But I didn’t think it would hurt Dreams have been there all my life To guide me as a kid When everything was full of shine And everything felt big Used to look up to the sky And now my head stays dipped But a heart in me that once had died Is asking me to live And If I’m not meant to find my happiness Well that’s fine At least I tried I didn’t give up on the way I know there’s others who might laugh at this But that’s life And I’m not throwing mine to hate I gave it years to find some peace But there’s nothing left for me here Apart from friends who aren’t friends And people who disappeared A life made from pretend Ready for the light and diesel Let the flames ignite the end So I can go and start my sequel Cause I’m sick of the clouds in my mind They’re raining and pouring inside These waters surrounded my life So I gave it my best Held my air In the deep I’m thinning the fog and the haze That’s blinded me all through my days This vision is not what I’ve chased So I’m leaving my demons and starting to breathe I find pictures of a younger me And lockets shaped like hearts Cards from those now enemies Every one had left their mark But these scars they’d simply reappear Every time I fell apart They’re sharpened heads would rear Like I was still swimming with the sharks Maybe I’m meant to find my happiness If I try With my time Instead of counting all the days And when the others They all laugh at this That’s alright Cause I’m fine living in the grey I’ve got years to write my piece There’s a story left in me Without those friends who aren’t friends And all those people who aren’t people A life made on the mend Putting down that can of diesel Douse the flames inside my head So I can go and live my sequel Cause I’m sick of the clouds in my mind They’re raining and pouring inside These waters surrounded my life So I gave it my best Held my air In the deep I’m thinning the fog and the haze That’s blinded me all through my days This vision is not what I’ve chased So I’m leaving my demons and starting to breathe So I'm leaving my demons and starting to breathe So I'm leaving my demons and starting to breathe You don’t need to rush into everything head first If it hurts just pace Take it slow When the wounds have cut deep They don’t fix over night The trauma doesn’t just disappear All because you smiled These things can take a while And an off day is not an off life It’s ok to not be fine It’s ok to need more time It’s ok if you’re not alright Your human and this is life And one day you will see That this patience that you hated Will actually set you free We’re not born into sadness We’re not born to hate ourselves We’re not made out of madness And not every day can go so well So take your moments Take your breaths Take your pauses When your giving it your best Your self will thank you later Even though today it hurts But soon in time you’ll feel enough And rediscover worth
