cloud your mind with anything but this life
for its too hard, too hard deal
the pain and the grieving
as we fall into this
we've lost touch with reality
lost touch with the world that's still spinning
on as we wallow in our own self pity
is this all there is
is this all there is
we were walking around with our-
we were walking around with our eyes closed
we were walking around with our-
we were walking around with our hearts shut
we were pushed down
and we were held back
just to feel
a few moments of "relief"
we'll clean up
and we'll start fresh
we'll push onward
and we'll push forward
look at what it's done
look at what it's done
this is because of us!
look at what it's done
look at what we've done
to this family
to this community
we are at fault
but we'll take charge
and beat this
oh we'll beat this.
we will rebuild
we will rebuild
we will rebuild
we will rebuild

The Thief

the words that you say
at the end of each day
will pull this rope
tighter, and tighter
time is too short,
time is a thief,
we live and we die
with the colors of the leaves.
in the blink of an eye
you followed suit
the difference (the difference)
between the paths that we choose
we were so close
before that day
that everything i knew
was taken away
years fall like leaves
like calendars from trees
we all have something we’re running from
we just need something to set us free
set us free
injury from insults,
covers like a blanket.
this will get the best of us
like a twine rope tourniquet
over and over and over and over and over and over….
over and over, has pain taught us nothing?
a carousel parallel to our lost love we sing:
set us free.
over and over, this hell taught you nothing?!
a carousel parallel to our lost love we sing:
set us free.
