I'll still be feeling low How are we living? [Blue] He'll still be slipping through We all come to it How are we living? [Blue] I'll still be slipping through When it comes to it Break my patience with deliberation Love that's like no other a contradiction But now I know Such is this life Enclosed but free Restricting me But now I know Such is this life Fallen debris Scattered at my feet How are we living? Who we are I need to find balance inside my heart Who we are I need to find balance - I need to fly Who we are I need to find balance inside my heart Who we are I need to find balance - I'm on standby Break my patience with deliberation [feeling lonely] Love that's like no other a contradiction Who we are...

Cruel to be kind Kindness is cruel It was our duty as the able bodies It was our duty as the able minded You need an exit and we supply it It was our duty as the able bodies To pick up the peaces and keep you smiling Holding you close as you willingly slipped Not in the moment, not equipped Holding you close as you willingly slipped I lost a friend - I lost a friend Today to life - Forever Today to life - I lost you I felt you take your final breaths you slipped away I held on as your heart shut down I lost my friend to life they took them away I'll hold on the best I can Today to life - Forever [through and through] Today to life - I lost you [through and through]

Some Nights 04:07
Our lives are just so intense but maybe that's the brilliance? So much of this doesn't make sense, I question the spirit and amens. Our lives are just so intense but maybe that's the brilliance? Some of this doesn't make much sense, I question the spirit and amens I wouldn't be here without you gifting life to me I wouldn't be me without you here Had I been there all alone I wouldn't be the man you know I was never reckless enough I always wondered how this drama ends Our lives are just so intense but maybe that's the brilliance? Some of this doesn't make much sense, I question the spirit and amens Thankfully there was enough distraction along the way I was able to change my course thankfully I wouldn't be me without you and that's ok I always knew I didn't belong so I'd drift away Too close to see - too far away to bid adieu We tried so hard but then we withdrew Emotional danger with no defence It made this all just too intense I was never reckless enough I always wondered how this drama ends Our lives are just so intense but maybe that's the brilliance? Some of this doesn't make much sense, I question the spirit and amens

Forest Fire 07:50
It was dark but we still could see the flames He was bleeding and we couldn't make it stop There was changing but he still could see my name even through the dense smoke The fire burned on... on and on and on I felt it - the heat was just so hot And it raged on and we couldn't move a thing Moments slipped by as they usually do The fire burned on... on and on and on Behind the fire, behind the veil of smoke Trees burn to ash and life turns to smoke Footprints covered in dust The fires spread they rage on 'til nothing's left Taking life with no hindsight Everything gone alight Behind the fire there is so much to see I can settle for less but that's not up to me I'm not the one who's struggling on and on I can't be there it's not that I don't care

Hold me close, retain our warmth Hold me close, rock back and forth Secured in place by loving embrace I try to pause but the time ticks by by the way I'll still be here Let's make it clear I'll still be here As our lives drift near I'll still be her Hold me close when people die Hold me near when I live in fear I love this home, our bond is our cement It holds these walls but the cracks still show By the way Let's make it clear I'll still be here As our lives drift near I'll still be her These are the days you wish that you could crack Patching the days you always want back These are the days you never get back Your life is off track. Let's make it clear
