about

This track was written in my senior year of high school. So many decisions had to be made, leading to a large amount of paths that I could possibly take. Knowing that all paths at some point must end and looking back at the paths I took in my life, I felt triumphant that the paths I have taken have led me to the paths that I can choose between now. I wondered why anyone would ever want to exit all paths entirely and couldn't wrap my mind around it. No matter what challenges we are faced with, we have the power to overcome them and voyage on a path of our liking. Although we have our doubts, we should feel motivated to go on with our lives, trying to change what we don't enjoy about it rather than complaining

lyrics

We are all so broken,
torn between two finite lines.
We just run all over
not caring who we leave behind.

But still we hate whats become of this world
and have all forgotten how to love.

Drowned out by our own silence,
we are all so self-deprived.
Wishing to be dying,
trying to find the best way to get high.

But still we hate whats become of this world
and have all forgotten how to love.

How easy it would be for us to give our lives up but we'd never jump.
How easy it would be for us to give our lives up but we'd never jump.
How easy it would be for us to give our lives up but we'd never jump.
