about

Acoustic version of our new single.

lyrics

Growing up can be so tough.
Everything goes against you.
Life can be so rough.
But just remember to wear a smile.
The pain tends to fade away after awhile.
Humanity has let you down.
Again and again
You scream "The pain will never cease to exist,
And why am I the only one who has to deal with this?"

Society has drug you down
To feel like nothing but a hopeless frown
You have the want to coexist
But lack the courage to raise your fist
And say "I am done"
But you have the strength to be the one
To scratch the surface on what is real
And tell the world just what you feel
To shed some light on this broken place
Open their eyes to this total disgrace
That they have pushed to the side for far too long
Ignored the difference between right or wrong
Refuse the standards that they have set
The ones that they say you haven't quite met

She screams "Why, why am I still breathing?
Am I a waste of air?
Can they hear me screaming 'Does anyone care?'"

For all those who had left
It was you who stayed
Up and down this winding road
Guided only by my blind faith
You were there for me when I needed you most
Don't let them make you believe you're not beautiful
'Cause you're beautiful
Just as you are

Do you remember waking up with a smile?
A time before things all changed
Do you remember when you used to say "When will I ever see brighter days?"?
The brighter days are here (3x)

She screams "Why, why am I still breathing?
Am I a waste of air?
Can they hear me screaming...

She screams "No,
I'm too young to let this go
And though the pain inside still grows
I'm never letting go."

One day
We'll fly away (Things will change)
Fly away from all our fears (One day)
And then we'll learn (To see)
To breathe again (The brighter days)
We'll start a brand new life
Just let me in (Find a way)
Into your heart
A place mistreated for far too long
A brand new start to a feeling
That I had held inside all along
