Track Name: May We Swim
Everything has a beginning
Everything may not end
Whether you like this
Whether you like this or not my friend

Beating hearts begin the cadence
Beating hearts my find an end
I am a vessel.
I am a vessel wrapped in skin

In between the first and finish
In between the start and end
There is an ocean
There is an ocean we need to swim

Cut boldly through the waves
Cut boldly through the waves
Cut boldly through the waves
May we swim
May we swim
May we swim

Everything has a beginning
Track Name: The Hardest Part of Fading
Winter hearts and cold hands
you are buried in the sand
waiting on the spring sun
to undo what you've done

Feel the rising tide come
feel your heart kick like a drum
There is no escaping
are you worth the risk of saving?

The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue

You can taste the salt kiss
You thought death would feel like a fist
tilt your head back breathe deep
exhale then watch it leave

The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
The hardest part of fading is the hope of rescue
Track Name: Up From The Ground
Up from the ground, up from the cold
I've been here before, I know how this goes
I thought it was good, I thought it was right
But hope turns to fear when there's absence of light
Yeah, hope turns to fear in the dead still of night

Just when the sun came out from the clouds
Just when I had it all figured out
I met a strong fist she's called gravity
A right-left blindside and I'm down on my knees
A right-left blindside left me weak and empty

This is the call and I have no choice
This is the call and I have no choice
This is the call and I have no choice
Track Name: The Weight of Sadness
No refuge scarce enough is safe for hiding
Cause nothing shields me from the pain of living
I know I can't support the weight of sadness
There's always something in the way, between us

I picked up my heavy heart
in the middle of February
I tried to nail it shut
but you stood there staring at me
reach out your hands
reach out... your hands

I'm often left without support I've managed
to move but now I only feel so stranded

I picked up my heavy heart
In the middle of February
I tried to nail it shut
But you stood there staring at me
Reach out your hands
Reach out.... your hands

Can nothing heal me?
Can nothing heal me?
Can nothing heal me?
Can nothing heal me?
Track Name: Gravity (Don't Let Me Go)
Oh Dear, Gravity don't let me go
Hold me like the winter holds the cold
Free fall, nothing in between my bones
Nothing but the wind and ground below

Burn red, I can feel the falling
Burn bright, through the atmosphere
I hear gun shots in the distance
Oh God, tell me that you're near

Head down, hiding from my last breath
Fingertips are finding dirt and depth
Slowly, crawling to the curtain call
Bombs and bullets can't remove resolve

Burn red, I can feel the falling
Burn bright, through the atmosphere
I hear gun shots in the distance
Oh God, tell me that you're near

Visions of my veins and blood
Acting like a pressure valve
I can feel it all release
When the fountain hits the ground

Burn red, I can feel the falling
Burn bright, through the atmosphere
I hear gun shots in the distance
Oh God, tell me that you're near
tell me that you're near
tell me that you're near
tell me that you're near
