Train Of Life 03:56
lyrics

Life is the train that keeps rolling Rolling Sometimes it rolls fast Sometimes it rolls slow It can be full or empty From Station to station Carriages full of expectation Rolling on til the tracks run out It's the journey you can't live without Life is the train that keeps rolling Sometimes you got a first class ticket Sometimes it’s standing room only it’s crowded and you still feel lonely From Station to station Carriages full of expectation Rolling on til the tracks run out It's the journey you can't live without Sometimes you got a first class ticket Sometimes it’s standing room only it’s crowded and you still feel lonely From Station to station Carriages full of expectation Rolling on til the tracks run out It's the journey you can't live without Rolling on til the track runs out is it the journey or the destination you dream about?

Tried shovelling shame, Tried shouldering blame, I tried throwing the game, I even tried forgetting my name, And now I'm, 40 Something , Going on, 22, 22 It's not about where you've been, It's where you're going to Now it's the 2nd half, Now I got a 2nd chance, Now I think I understand, The promise in this promised land, 40 Something , Going on, 22, 22 It's not about where you've been, It's where you're going to, 40 Something , Going on, 22, 22 I was so much older then, I never even knew 40 Something , Going on, 22, 22 It's not about where you've been, It's where you're going to, 40 Something , Going on, 22, 22 I was so much older then, I never even knew

Welcome to this place Everything a connection, in isolation Where would you rather be? Then alone, with everybody But for every swipe For every like For every fear of missing out I'd give anything to really be, alone with somebody I'd give anything just to be, alone with someone In real time , in real life So we opened up the gates Was it only our attention they had to take? What if we're lying on a bed of riches? What is gold in this world really worth? Coz for every swipe And for every like For every fear of missing out I'd give anything to really be, alone with somebody I'd give anything just to be, alone with someone In real time , in real life Gimme real time , gimme real life Does the Devil pay for the idle hands he has made? If there's something that he's given Then what did he take? Coz for every swipe And for every like For every fear of missing out I'd give anything to really be, alone with somebody I'd give anything just to be, alone with someone In real time , in real life Gimme real time , gimme real life I'd give anything to really be, alone with somebody I'd give anything to really be, alone with somebody I'd give anything just to be, alone with someone In real time , in real life Gimme real time , gimme real life

At any given time or place You can have that look on your face Troubles coming outta nowhere Never saw it arrive Coz it was already here There's a pressure that exists There's a poison you can't resist There's a pressure that exists There's a poison you can't resist You can go up in smoke or down in flames It doesn't matter, we all burn the same You can hate the player you can hate the game It doesn't matter, the rules never change At any given time or place You can have that look on your face Troubles coming outta nowhere Never saw it arrive Coz it was already here There's a pressure that exists There's a poison you can't resist There's a pressure that exists There's a poison you can't resist You can go up in smoke or down in flames It doesn't matter, we all burn the same You can hate the player you can hate the game It doesn't matter, the rules never change You can go up in smoke or down in flames It doesn't matter, we all burn the same You can hate the player you can hate the game It doesn't matter, the rules never change You can go up in smoke or down in flames It doesn't matter, we all burn the same You can hate the player you can hate the game It doesn't matter, the rules never change There's a pressure that exists There's a poison you can't resist There's a pressure that exists There's a poison you can't resis

No More Self Sabotage 02:52

Got a purpose Got a place Got a reason Finally Written on my face I’ve been thinking What if I never stopped What if I gave it Everything I've got Got a purpose, got a place Got a reason written on my face No more self sabotaging This time around I think I'm done with it now Letting myself down It’s a decision That we make To believe that no one has to play this game Now I'm certain It's a truth that's worth the cost All I really needed I never really lost Got a purpose, got a place Got a reason written on my face No more self sabotaging This time around I think I'm done with it now Letting myself down Can you hear that sound? Can you hear that sound? No more self sabotaging This time around On the way up There'll be no letting myself down No more self sabotaging This time around I think I'm done with it now Letting myself down No more self sabotaging This time around I think I'm done with it now Letting myself down

I Took A Photo 04:07
lyrics

Sometimes some people They don’t want to be found I took a photo and i showed it round I took a photo and i showed it round We all need forgiveness there’s no doubt We cross a line that love rubs out and thats me now So here We are again Asking for a friend How can you draw a straight line From your heart to mine? I guess we fraternised Trying to decide How to love in these times How to lose in these times When I found you your voice made a sound Like disappointment killed compassion Left it on the ground Well for me you'd never be uncrowned Second chances don’t always come about There’s some people we can’t do without And that’s you now So here We are again Asking for a friend How can you draw a straight line From your heart to mine? I guess We fraternised Trying to decide How to love in these times How to lose in these times What will become of us? Before we return to dust? Don't you ever wonder? So here We are again Asking for a friend How can you draw a straight line From your heart to mine I guess we fraternised Trying to decide How to love in these times How to love Can you show me how to love? Can you show me how to love in these times? I took a photo and I showed it round...

Waiting For The Summer To Fall 03:38
lyrics
buy track
The feel of this place is like winter Bones under skin Aching for sunlight’s return Don’t tell me this year is slipping Don’t tell me that I only lack the discipline To catch a fire in a frozen frame And keep it Keep it forever Waiting for the summer to fall I'm Waiting for the summer to fall You blink and you miss it In Autumn I wait for the shiver Emotions worn thin Longing for colors to burn To break free from this stillness Unravel the script i wrote in pain hope only springs like a fragile flower Can i keep it , keep it together Waiting for the summer to fall I'm Waiting for the summer to fall You blink and you miss it Do our dreams sleep in the space between? Waiting for the summer to fall For the summer to fall In the hush of the night, whispers linger Echoes within Craving the warmth that once burned Don't say these days are escaping There's no escaping There's no escaping Waiting for the summer to fall Waiting for the summer to fall You blink and you miss it Do our dreams sleep in the space between? Waiting for the summer to fall For the summer to fall

All We Can Do (Is forgive and move on) 03:14
lyrics

For every shadow on my face For every memory left to escape Well i won’t collapse under the weight Because I’ll never return to this place And that’s why All we can do is forgive and move on All we can do is forget what’s gone For all the stories i told myself Even the ones where i was written out Well i’ve stopped auditioning now Coz I’ll never play that part Again All we can do is forgive and move on All we can do is forget what’s gone I’ll never try to hide it I’ll never try fight it Never chase the mystery Of my history All we can do is forgive and move on All we can do is forget what’s gone All we can do is forgive and move on All we can do is forget what’s gone

Only You I Miss 04:21
lyrics

o you mind if I just blend in I’m not comfortable being At these kinds of Social gatherings I'm out of practice, out of confidence My body wonders where my mind has been You can look me in the eyes And only see what's been left behind And I can't deny the undeniable After all this It’s only you I miss Waiting for tonight to be the night We met and Started again I never dealt with you leaving I hid it in a blindspot I tell myself things are better now But they're not Another night, dancing alone Me and my regrets in our comfort zone Where I only sing along To sad songs Coz I can't deny the undeniable After all this It’s only you I miss Waiting for tonight to be the night That we met and Started again The truth is fact beats fiction This heart still needs fixing Every lie I tell myself slowly dies You're the truth that always survives After all this It’s only you I miss Waiting for tonight to be the night We met and Started again After all this It’s only you I miss Waiting for tonight to be the night That we met and Started again The truth is fact beats fiction This heart still needs fixing After all this It’s only you I miss After all this It’s only you I miss Every lie I tell myself slowly dies You're the truth that always survives Every lie I tell myself slowly dies You're the truth that always survives

Inside Your Soul 03:20

've been scratching around I've been crawling underneath Sometimes being down on my knees Helps me see I must believe it But I don't know You ever know What's written down Inside your soul It gets cold on the ground It gets lonely too Sometimes I think I'd rather shed this skin Than just lie here freezing But I don't know You ever know What's written down Inside your soul Yeah I don't know You ever know What's written down Inside your soul Sometimes being down on my knees Helps me see I must believe it But I don't know You ever know What's written down Inside your soul Yeah I don't know You ever know What's written down Inside your soul

Songs For The Struggle 03:44

Where do you go When your mind and body's been Battered Where do you go When you can't take the punches No more No more Where do you go when your mind and body's been Shattered And there's not going to be no shelter From the storm Whenever I need them most They haunt me like a ghost Whenever my mind is in trouble I hear songs for the struggle Somedays we're not ok Some nights we're not alright Gotta truth I wanna tell you that's mine But you're gonna have to know how to read my mind Feel like the moments go Like my socials doesn't show All the right things at the right times In the right places Gotta truth I wanna tell you that's mine Want you to hear it Every line Whenever I need them most They haunt me like a ghost Whenever my mind is in trouble I hear songs for the struggle Whenever the fear gets close To taking what matters most Whenever my heart is in trouble I hear songs for the struggle I've been in a bubble That's not living but not dying It's a prison where the only freedom is Listening Whenever I need them most They haunt me like a ghost Whenever my mind is in trouble I hear songs for the struggle Whenever the fear gets close To taking what matters most Whenever my heart is in trouble I hear songs for the struggle
