Things Change

(album: Rise As Equals - 2020)

Things change
They'll never be the same
Even mountains carve away
By the crashing of the waves
Things change

I hate me for you
Having to see
The beat-up, broken, ugly side of me
I hate you for not giving a fuck enough
To kick me out and toss me to the street
I dug a hole, buried him deep
So at night we both can sleep
And dream
One day you'll remember

Things change
They'll never be the same
Even mountains carve away
By the crashing of the waves
Things change
Gotten out of my own way
Standing here sober enough to say
Things change

It took me some time
To open my eyes
See the damage done with all my lies
I got so damn high
And I hit the bottom
I promise
I'm ready to let me show you

Things change
They'll never be the same
Even mountains carve away
By the crashing of the waves
Things change
Gotten out of my own way
Standing here sober enough to say
Things change

What's a price of forgiveness
What's the cost for redemption
Did I mention
That I'm broken
But I'll give you all that's left

Things change
They'll never be the same
Even mountains carve away
By the crashing of the waves

Things change
They'll never be the same
Even mountains carve away
By the crashing of the waves
Things change
Gotten out of my own way
Standing here sober enough to say
Things change
