Strong Enough To Live

(album: Quarantine Collaborations - 2021)

Will you be strong enough to live
Will you be strong enough to live

Started with the pen and paper
Ended with a plan in mind
Tapping on the window pane as the storm attempts to come inside
Candle in the corner flickers
Shadows dance around the room
Peaceful resolution rests between the needle and the spoon

Close your eyes and
Take your time
Push yourself into another life
(Another life)

When the silence breaks again, when your walls are closing in
When you've given all you have, will you be strong enough to live
When the tide rolls in again, and every bullet needs a friend
When you've nothing left to give, will you be strong enough to live
Will you be strong enough to live

Before you say goodbye forever
Trust your every move in time
We could all just blame ourselves
But there's no answers in there left to find
The only eyes we see through are our own
No one knows the path you've strayed
Before your smiles are forgotten
Walk away from yesterday

Close your eyes and
Take your time and
Push yourself into another life
(Another life)

When the silence breaks again, when your walls are closing in
When you've given all you have, will you be strong enough to live
When the tide rolls in again, and every bullet needs a friend
When you've nothing left to give, will you be strong enough to live

I can see it in your eyes your smile the way you make me feel alive
You've got so much left to give
Deep beneath the cries I know you're strong enough to live

When the silence breaks again, when your walls are closing in
When you've given all you have, will you be strong enough to live
When the tide rolls in again, and every bullet needs a friend
When you've given all you have, will you be strong enough to live
Deep beneath the cries I know you're strong enough to live

I am now strong enough to live
I am now strong enough to live
