Part One of a three part live set from our living room. All three songs are originals that will be available in our Bandcamp store for purchase.
Lyrics:
I won't pretend that I'm confident
It keeps me from help when I need it
Where there is confusion, I don't want to see it at all
It may be impudent but I'm not a student of
Thoughts you concocted in shadows
These doors closed just measure
What you won't face on your own
So let me in
Unseen by the hear that you Kept from yourself
There are bruises on skin you can't hide
Fighting to tell the story of how you arrived
So blink once for, "I know."
And twice for, "I'm lost."
There's more life here to treasure
While you count the cost of leaving hearts exposed
We should have just gone inside
Oh, misadventures:
Times that we wouldn't let go of cover
See, it showed us what we refused
For love, was never enough to take chances
For all of the others that slipped through our fingers
We wouldn't always care deeply enough
I swear though, there's more to this, more than you know
What if control was never the answer
Unseen by the hear that you Kept from yourself
There are bruises on skin you can't hide
Fighting to tell the story of how you arrived
So blink once for, "I know."
And twice for, "I'm lost."
There's more life here to treasure
While you count the cost of being all alone
I will never forget the feeling
Of seeing you reeling, watching you fall
From hurts that I’m not sure
I could’ve stepped in to take
A lot of these days though
I wish I’d been more than I was
But me in control, was never the answer
See you’re known by the heart that you wear on your sleeve
Those bruises will heal, there’s no reason to leave
It’s a beautiful story, that tale is becoming a guide
To care for those looking for more hope than they have known
It’s stretching out to them, the sight of your growth
You’re worth more, than ever you’ve known
You’re alive
You're alive.

Lyrics:
Silence is not the answer
This is not the end
Your quiet feeds like a cancer
You can't always just wait on things to end
Silence is not the answer
It is not your friend
The space between us is make believe
Unless we speak, make it come into being
Silence

Lyrics:
You and I have both started to die and
I sometimes wonder if we really tried
I remember the fight, just not the light
Casting shadows over why we began
I can see a plan
Start to form
Around where I wanted to be
And where I really am
Could this be
Enough for me
If it stops here
Would I be satisfied
In the midst of broken hope
Would it feel like letting go
To forgive and forget
Releasing this blood debt
I used to hate my heart
While it cried
To take the knife out of what I held you to
But there is freedom in task (of)
Taking shackles off someone else
Even when it hurts you to set them free
See hurt is not your enemy
It just shows you where you're bleeding
Sometimes the most dangerous lie
Is that you're not bleeding inside
Don't hide from feeling
In the midst of broken hope
Would it feel like letting go
To forgive and forget
Would it be pure catharsis
To no longer live with regret
To be free, ourselves
Releasing him from this blood debt
When I let go of you
What you did
What was done
You can't own me
When you owe me nothing
When I let go of you
What you did
What was done
You can't own me
When I decide you owe me nothing
So be free
I release you
