Blood, Toil, Tears, Sweat

(album: Seasonal Depression - 2014)

May the wind always be at your back

Anything in life can take your breath away
Find the one thing that puts air into your lungs
For now I'm throwing mixed emotions to the wolves
They can rip tear and shred every fiber, every thread

Nothing is truly lost, just in a different place in time
In my head your heart still beats with mine

It's not about putting yourself together
It's about letting pieces fall apart
That shipwreck in your chest
Will always be an anchor on your heart
Even in the face of the heaviest tides
I swear you can make it part

I may not be the best example
But I stand here with a fucked up past
A good laugh and the hopes of moving forward
I'm embracing change with open arms
Yet clumsy hands and a lack of charm
Makes it fucking hard to hold it all together

Nothing is truly lost, just in a different place in time
In my head your heart still beats with mine

It's not about putting yourself together
It's about letting pieces fall apart
That shipwreck in your chest
Will always be an anchor on your heart
Even in the face of the heaviest tides
I swear you can make it part

Everyday is a firefight
And as I face these battles
I have to retain that this
Hope can remain and still survive
There's more to living than just being alive

Those who spend their lives in glass houses
Should not cast stones
Give in to being broken
We're made to be fragile
Designed to be open and fall apart
Give way to your heavy heart

It's not about putting yourself together
It's about letting pieces fall apart
That shipwreck in your chest
Will always be an anchor on your heart
Even in the face of the heaviest tides
I swear you can make it part

Everyday is a firefight
And as I face these battles
I have to retain that this
Hope can remain and still survive
There's more to living than just being alive
