Growing Up (free) 02:29
lyrics
download
GROWING UP So here I stand thinking about the best of times When nothing could stand in our way Those days were yours and mine And time goes by while we sit and wash away Holding onto memories and counting down the days Growing up is never easy and I'll be the first to say I'll change Nothing stays the same Growing up will never be easy and I'm not afraid to say I've changed Nothing stays the same Nothing can stay the same Now I think back, back to what we shared It seems so distant, like we were never there We've grown apart and it seems sad to say We've disconnected and it still gets to me Now here I stand thinking about these days We've found our own directions and we're facing different ways You'll find your feet and I'll keep these memories For no matter where we go, we're all just seeking peace Growing up is never easy and I'll be the first to say I'll change Nothing stays the same Growing up will never be easy and I'm not afraid to say I've changed Nothing stays the same

Doubt (guest vocals by Sam Jamieson) (free) 01:55
lyrics
download
DOUBT So much doubt So much second guessing where we stand and why Reaching out for something to cling to with acceptance in sight Are we blind to what we feel? Are we numb to what's inside? So afraid of self awareness and what others feel is right I can feel it The pressure to fit in Without introspection we'll never win I see it in my peers I see it in young and old Social anxiety taking over and grabbing a hold What is it worth to stand alone and find identity? All of this pressure to conform is getting the best of you and me I can feel it The pressure to fit in Without introspection we'll never win I just can't hide who I am inside Because I'm burning out and losing sight Fear of unacceptance prescribes who we're meant to be And I am so afraid of what others will see I can feel it The pressure to fit in Without introspection we'll never win

THE PRICE (free) 01:35
lyrics
download
THE PRICE The price they pay I can't understand the difference We're all living beings Breathing, growing, but not all bleeding to fulfil others needs The arrogance of controlling others lives Deciding when they'll meet an end I can't believe my eyes And if I asked you not to look away (the price they pay) Would you hear me? (the price they pay) Would you see another way? (the price they pay) Behind closed doors, callous and inhumane Beaten, abused and broken down Pushed until insane Why try to keep tradition in it's place? The hurt, the pain, the suffering All for a taste I can't turn and look the other way when animals are dying everyday just to satisfy human needs There's a price that they will pay for what we eat

COMPETITION (free) 01:58
lyrics
download
COMPETITION Competition between you and me It's blinding us Now I can't see Envy I only want just what you have Frustrations We'll leave them in the past Growing wise together Learning from mistakes Understanding flaws Before the tension breaks I'm only human and I concede I get brought down by insecurities Learning to take control when my demons take a hold Growing wise together Learning from mistakes Understanding flaws Before the tension breaks I don't want to let you down again When you let me down I'll understand We're all fighting weights that keep us down It's not easy when it's you that hits the ground

NOTHING REMAINS (guest vocals by Martin Specowius) (free) 01:53
lyrics
download
NOTHING REMAINS Tell me what happened Why did it change? Give me one reason why I should feel the same? So much to stand for Swelling with pride But I don't hate you for what you feel inside Learning, growing, thinking, changing Living, feeling, shifting, engaging Nothing remains Tell me what shifted inside your head I just can't see through all the words you said A higher meaning I just can't see I can't find a reason why your stance came to be We spent so long together but now we're worlds apart And I'm asking myself "why did this all fall apart?" Nothing remains

OPPORTUNITIES (free) 03:31
lyrics
download
OPPORTUNITIES Look back at where you've been Footprints and memories Colours and shades of grey Moments build into days The years pass by so fast Present fades into past All in a symphony of what life will come to be The passing days quickly erased Opportunities to be ceased And when the seasons change Time falls into place Potential to repeat the same enduring beat Critics will always speak up when you least need to know That we all have to fall to have the chance to grow The passing days quickly erased Opportunities to be ceased If I could turn back time I wouldn't change a thing Because the lessons learnt become my everything If I could turn back time I wouldn't change a thing Because the chance to grow is such a precious thing The passing days quickly erased Opportunities to be ceased The chances we create are like water through our hands But I still need to see everything that I can The beat will carry on whether you hear or not But if you listen, you'll hear the music play along
