The closing and title track to my sophomore EP... out of all my songs that I've written, I get the most compliments for this one. This one I've always been very proud of, it originally started as a last letter to my loved ones after the car accident... I wrote an encouraging end verse to it after I started to get better, I figured "Fuck it, I'll make it a song". Everyone who liked this song always urged/suggested that it would sound cool as an acoustic song. I have to say - they were right.

lyrics

27 years
That's 27 times around the sun
I used to be in love with everyone
And all the places and things that enamored me
Continually slip right through all the cracks
I'm breaking my back trying to love again
To leave my mark.. before I confront the end

The future is cruel, relentless
And this world will hurt you whenever it's given the chance
I've forgotten how innocence should feel
So whisper a lie and tell me this ain't real
And hold me tight until the stress has been killed
The story so far: chaotic and cold
Funny to say, its the only thing that feels like home

...to ...me
So undeserving of love
Dim light
Hold tight

How unbelievable...

I'm still alive

-

I'm locked inside, being me
Living in the gaps in between
All of your dreams and realities
I'm always trying to reach

Between the essence and descent
Between the potency and spasms
Falls the shadows of my art

If I'm going out, I'm gonna leave my mark
I'll go hard, and now I know where to start
I was never known for being one to shut my mouth

I'm gonna be as loud as loud can be
Cause it always becomes a memory
And you're so vain if you think I can't change
This shit you put me through won't ever rest in peace
And if you're wondering just exactly what I will do

What will I do?

I'll just be me

Cause thats
All
I
Can
Be

I survived
