Song 5

Trying to write as many songs as I can this year. Aiming for one a day but that isn’t always possible as I have a job and stuff haha. It is still helpful knowing that if I have time, I should try to finish or at least start a new song. Here is the fifth in this new year’s resolution series.

Day 3

Day three of three songs in three days. How long can I keep this up? Who can say for sure.

Cowrite with my friends Kevin and Chris, who make up 1/2 of a band I’m in called Send A Raven.

When You Run Out of Time

What can we do

Now that we’re dying

If I could start again

With energy to spend

Hide all the clocks

Pull me back in

Stained glass

Watch the expanse

All this medicine isn’t keeping you alive

The best part is the next part

When you go back in time

Send away all the angels

It’s all that you can do

They do not deserve to see

What the world did to you

You might not get any closer

On the edge looking down

Out in the horizon

Is a world you haven’t found

All this medicine isn’t keeping you alive

What is worth holding on to

When you run out of time

All this medicine isn’t keeping you alive

What is worth holding on to

When you run out of time

All this medicine isn’t keeping you alive

What is worth holding on to

When you’ve run out of time

Day three of three songs in three days. How long can I keep this up? Who can say for sure.

BRAVE

I walked in to your room

I couldn’t find the words

Do I have to spell it out

Sit down this one’s gonna hurt

I thought you might have known

Many times I had tried

To lay it all out

Should have come as no surprise

You don’t have to be brave

You don’t have to let it go

You don’t even have to try

You are never alone

You don’t have to be brave

I guess I should have known

Should have read the signs

Should have hid your keys

Should have read your mind

You gotta make your move

It’s gonna be ok

This could be your shot, kid

This could be your big break

You don’t have to be brave

You don’t have to let it go

You don’t even have to try

You were never alone

You don’t have to be brave

Or pretend that you’re strong

Let’s just both fall apart

Right here where we belong

You were already packed

I was turning over stones

Something shifted in the earth

When I picked up the phone

We’ve been stumbling in the dark

For half of our lives

Something bigger than us both

Pulled me back inside

You don’t have to be brave
