Back

You can sit and stare,
and look up into the air
And ask every question
on your mind
And you get something
other than regret
Something worth
your goddamn time
There’s a place that’s
buried deep inside
And it will take you far and wide
Is it a blessing, or is it a curse?
That’s all on you to decide
Never wanna go back
Never wanna look back
Never gonna go back
You wanted choice,
you got your fucking choice
Now it’s all on you to decide

Kind
03:21

Big trees, big skies,
big streets, big lights
Big plans, big prize,
big words, big ties
Why do they say I’m strong,
I’m not strong
I’m sick of feeling beat
Why do they say I’m kind,
I’m not kind
I’m terrified of hate
Why do they say I’ve lost,
I haven’t lost
As much as I have gained
They tell me all the time,
to keep up
You gotta stay in the game
But it’s not theirs to tell
They’ll tell you what to do
But you’ve gotta work
it out for yourself
They’ll tell you what to say
There’s no way,
you gotta go along with it all
They’ll tell you how to lose
And you know,
you’re gonna lose some after all
But every day is new
And there’s a way,
to rise if you should fall
But it’s not theirs to tell
Big trees, big lights,
big talk, big fight
Big deal, big price,
big need, big cries
Big heart, big highs,
big loss, big lines
Big trust, big time,
big fall, big rise

Whisper
03:31
|
|||
Whose idea could this have been
To make us feel so voiceless
Is it so unlikely to be heard
Is it so unlikely to be heard?
I’m listening, when you’re talking
I’m listening, when you’re whispering
I’m listening,
when you’re screaming
I’m listening, when you’re shouting
I’m listening, when you’re talking
I’m listening, when you’re whispering

Lose
02:40
|
|||
Picking myself up to carry on
And by now I should know
it’s not what you want
It’s what you’ve done,
and what can you do now?
It’s what you’ve won,
and what can you lose now?
What can you do?
What can you do now,
what can you lose now?

Other Way
01:55
|

How bad will it get
if we don’t fight harder?
How bad will it get
if we don’t look closer?
How bad will it get
if we don’t take over?
We’ll take over
Because we have
so little time to waste
And we might not know until it
stares us in the face
But our chance is slipping away
We can’t afford
to look the other way
How bad will it get
if we don’t run faster
How bad will it get
if we don’t love louder
How bad will it get
if we don’t take over?
We’ll take over

Sense
02:24
|
|||
Work with what you have,
not what you want
Make some sense
out of what you got
Make some goddamn sense
outta what you got

Gone
01:20
|
|||
Faith, gone
Trust, gone
Pride, gone
Gone, gone, gone
Getting the slip in the
simplest fucking ways
Forced to fear the
simplest fucking things
Simplest fucking ways
Simplest fucking ways
|

Wrote
01:14
|
|||
What
Do they want from you
What
Can they get from you
What
Is it everything?
It is everything
Who wrote what you’re reading?

Shine
02:57
|
|||
Oh, these modern times
Oh, these modern minds
Oh, these desperate times
Oh, these desperate minds
Don’t let them put a shine
Don’t let them put a shine
Don’t let them put a shine
Don’t let them put a shine
on you

Listen
01:53
|
|||
I can’t listen anymore
Didn’t need it then
Don’t need it now
Didn’t need it then,
don’t need it now
|

Tell Me
02:43
|
|||
Tell me, tell me when I’m wrong
And give me time to learn
I’ll tell you,
I’ll tell you when you’re wrong
And give you time to learn
And give you space to learn
It takes time to change
It takes strength to make the time
And strength comes
from open minds
Strength comes
from open minds
It takes
Love and strength

Reasons
03:02
|
|||
What are you gonna do
When your reasons
don’t make sense to you?
Make sense to you
