When We Broke Through

(album: Find A Way Home - 2023)

Change my mind help me find
A way to explain the pain
Starts somewhere in my heart
Goes up through my throat
Then ends up inside my brain
Where it festers inside
Makes me want to try
A little harder to turn the tide

Against the odds we made it work
Through the struggles and the pain
This life, it ain't so bad
When you pull it from the frame
I need you like a junky needs a needle for a vein
And now I'm fighting all these feelings
I was headed down the drain

When we broke through into undiscovered country
We both knew that this would change us completely
And it's true I feel it down so deeply
When we broke through
We broke the life we knew
When we broke through

What if we, what if we never met?
There'd be a lot less regret
And so much less to forget
That's what if we never met

But then we wouldn't have her
And then we wouldn't have him
Or all those sweet memories
Like Vegas out on a limb

Against the odds we made it work
Through the struggles and the pain
This life, it ain't so bad
When you pull it from the frame
I need you like a junky needs a needle for a vein
And now I'm fighting all these feelings
I was headed down the drain

When we broke through into undiscovered country
We both knew that this would change us completely
And it's true I feel it down so deeply
When we broke through
We broke the life we knew
When we broke through
We took a chance on something new when we broke through
