A Year Ago in Boston 03:57
lyrics

A year ago in Boston I had nothing left to lose A year ago in Boston I was shivering in my shoes A year ago in Boston I was barely holding on I thought I knew who I was; I could not have been more wrong One more year goes by One more chapter in my life One more year goes by One more chapter left to write A year ago in Boston I had given up on life A year ago in Boston I was dancing with a knife A year ago in Boston I was wishing I would die Ready to meet my maker, I was walking toward the light One more year goes by One more chapter in my life One more year goes by One more chapter left to write A year ago in Boston I was searching for my soul A year ago in Boston I had fallen down a hole A year ago in Boston I was digging my own grave Standing in the darkness, I was ready to be saved One more year goes by One more chapter in my life One more year goes by One more chapter left to write

Failure Is My Mentor 03:03

I did my best, but it wasn’t good enough I tried my hardest, but it was too hard I gave it all I got, now I got nothing I ran away from home, but I didn’t get far Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Careful what you wish for Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Failure is my mentor I listened to my heart, but I couldn’t speak the language I followed my bliss, but it led me astray I took a leap of faith, but I jumped to conclusions I faced my fear and fell flat on my face Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Careful what you wish for Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Failure is my mentor Where do I go? What do I do? Show me a sign, tell me the truth What do I do? Where do I go? When will I learn? How will I know? Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Careful what you wish for Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Break it down! Build it up Failure is my mentor

Savior Self 03:39
lyrics
buy track
Wake up in a suitcase with your head up in the clouds Give up on the rat race; you’ll make your parents proud Take up arms against yourself, and fight ‘til you can’t breathe Make up stories as you go, and talk to the trees Don’t go fighting wars you never lost Don’t go hang yourself up on a cross Don’t believe a word you hear Don’t speak for second best This is not a test Have you heard the latest news? It’s bound to change your life The world keeps spinning round and round, and no one seems to mind Anything and everything you thought your life would be Is buried ‘neath the suffering of what you think you need Don’t go fighting wars you never lost Don’t go hang yourself up on a cross Don’t believe a word you hear Don’t speak for second best This is not a test Savior self Savior self Don’t go fighting wars you never lost Don’t go hang yourself up on a cross Don’t believe a word you hear Don’t speak for second best This is not a test

Something More Than This 03:54
lyrics
buy track
Let’s be perfectly honest What the hell are we doing here? We’ve all got dreams We’ve all got bills We live somewhere between hope and fear Maybe we were made for something more than this Maybe we won’t know until we try What if all the answers are written under our wings And we just stand here staring at the sky? Let’s be brutally honest Are we afraid of who we are? We live with less We long for more We dig a hole and reach for a star Maybe we were made for something more than this Maybe we should fly before we run What if all the answers are written in the darkness And we just stand here staring at the sun? Penny for your thoughts Can you spare a dime? Another day, another dollar Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up Wait in line Let’s be painfully honest Do we avoid the things we love? We give up hope We take a chance We numb our feelings and think too much Maybe we were made for something more than this Maybe only tombs are carved in stone What if all the answers are written all around us And we just stand here staring at our phones?
