lyrics

I've been down on my luck. Can't get out of this rut. But I'm far from feeling useless. I can't count on much. but i'm not giving up because I know that this life's always changing.

Make Me The Author
I'll Write My Own Life

Give us the words we need
To make it better
A song that we all can sing
That fills our lungs
Give us the strength to see
When we feel broken
Give us the words we need
This life is ours to live

Those broken memories. The times we can't take back. Staying up all night long. The clock is counting back. Thoughts racing back and forth. Some things you can't forget. Nightmares in my sleep. Reliving the heart attack.

We know these things can't fix themselves and we don't want any one to save us. Staying true and working hard we will re write our own future. Starting now
