It's Hard To Explain

Well I guess he’s on his way
From the hospital to home
He’s got lots of things to say
I’ll try to teach him more
And it’s hard to explain the feelings that you feel today
And it’s hard to remain the same man that you were yesterday
Her smile is like a sunrise
It stretches out even your fears cannot hide
She’s growing so fast you can miss things
So I reach on down and hold her more everyday
All he knows is just to believe in you
He’ll follow close with every move that you do
Now I know just what I have to do
Do my best to stay around for a long time

Find Something Else

Let me begin before I’m too far away
Because I got so much more I want to say
See it clearly through someone’s point of view
Can only get us closer to the truth
They’ll pretend that there’s been nothing wrong
But no one ever called them all those names
Take a break from all your coloured hate
And find something else to kill your pain
So many years we thought we had it controlled
It breathed in a new life then knocked on our doors
One day you’re walking tall and smiling in the streets
Then next you’re on the ground begging I can’t breathe
Find some solace when you don’t know how this will end
Just know there’s more of us than there are them
Signs and fists power pumping into the air
Just want to overcome the minds that still don’t care

Tip Of A Hat
04:35

I can’t decide if
If I am one of them or not
I guess I rather be not
Because time gets distorted
Focused on moments that shape your life
It’s a sacrifice
Is it true they don’t look at you like the old days?
With a tip of a hat and wink of an eye
Is it true they don’t look at you like the old days?
All we’ve through has been moved to the back of your mind
It’s hard to keep up
Even though we share in the same living space
It’s like a magic show
The smoke fills in then they disappear
How’d they do that?
I don’t need to retrace
Along the trail or any other way where I got off of
The prime time is over your mind’s slowly coming back and sober
Makes you wonder everyday

She's Still Dancing
04:30
|

If I was able to I’d help you find your way back home
Back from the lights and music from angels singing songs all day
And I knew that you were in my room for not long
Just trying to tell me your still dancing on the other floor
If I could slow the beat of this marching band passing by
I might change the timing but I can’t change the melody
I keep looking for your smile and your winking eye
If I keep trying to find you I just might find I’ll lose myself
Knowing you then losing you
You were once but a child then I lived to see your smile
And there are days I hear your voice
Don’t be afraid to make a choice
You ever make now in this life
Cause when we’re all done I hope we’ll see you home
If I was strong like you I’d keep the ones that I love from harm
Teach them all my life mistakes that I’ve been through time and time and again
All you were to me is going to live through what I will do
Even though you couldn’t stay I just feel you’re not too far from here
Knowing you then losing you
You were once but a child then I lived to see your smile
And there are days I fall apart
Don’t be afraid to fill your heart
With all the good left in this life
Cause when we’re all done
I hope we’ll see you home
