Love Yourself

Hey don't you shout
There's nothing to fuss about
Take a drive and figure it out
Take a walk and discover another route
Take a breath and laugh it out
Give yourself the benefit of the doubt
There's no need for you to feel so down
Because I love you
Oh yes, I do
But not as much as
you should love yourself
I know life can be hard
No need to burn it to a chard
We have come this far
No need to act so tart
Come on now and listen to your heart
Drive to the mountains in your car
We can try to reach for the stars
And I love you
Oh yes, I do
But not as much as
You should love yourself

Nowhere
03:01

It's a long road to nowhere
But still sounds fair to me
Life is not charity
We get to a forest and no one is there
The ferns brush at our knees
The air is pure and clean
But still we are nowhere
We are no one
We are nowhere
We are not the only ones
Who don't care
Take me somewhere else
Cause any where is better than this
I can spend my life looking at trees
Because nowhere can be bliss
As long as we are free
From the chains of society
We are no one
We are nowhere
We are not the only ones
Who don't care

Secrets Secreted
03:24
|

Secrets secreted from your mouth
Words finally free but why now?
That's when everything went south
We can go back to the norm but how?
What is there left for us to allow?
We can go anywhere, just don't bring me down
I can see the truth hidden in your eyes
But I can only see the future as it passes by
This journey is too cruel to continue
Wishes of wellness vanish into the blue
But at least there is still me and you
Real friends are now far and few
There's always so much to go through
So little options so much to do
I can see the truth hidden in your eyes
I can see the storm coming in the sky
I can detect the smallest of lies
But I can only see the future as it passes by

Is This Real?
04:46
|
|||
|
Is this real?
I taste, sense, and feel
We face our own fear
Is our fate really sealed?
Or do we choose how we get here
Like me choose our meals
Wheels turn and gears grind
What can we find?
When close our own eyes
And open our ears
Is it inside or out side?
The truth that we hear
The sun is here
The night sleeps
We're each other's mirror
Hold back those tears
Do you see?
What we want to be
Our body's the ship
Our mind the helm
That we steer
Lets sail on a trip
To explore other realms
We get swept on our own feet
To see reality
The sun down is here
The day sleeps
Create a mirror
Take that leap
Hold back those tears
Dreams are for more than sleep
We're all a mirror
Take that leap
