Gotta be forgiven if we're gonna keep on living And I know it's easier to say Gotta do it anyway Clouds go by and seasons pass, days draw on I know we'll last (Cause) college comes and knowledge goes But friendship never grows old. Relationships are fickle and we get caught in the middle But I've known that for all my life And we've bypassed the strife Brown's the color of your skin and you're name's a tone of it SB love you just as much You two deserve such great heights.
2.
Death is an alarm clock you see it's ominous And won't go away until dealt with Like that nervous tick or those shaking limbs Death can be the, well, death of you In more ways than one but death can be fun If one were to harness that fear One can attach a mountain to their idea And it will be bigger than ever Or one can conquer weather To destroy, build, whatever Who the hell cares About your fear and what you do with it Everyone It could be like that anyway, you have to be ambitious The thought of wanting to be more than what you really are And the world, the world Will believe in you You'll see Because I believe in me.
3.
You are vulnerable, you are a tree The wind blows and you bend and then stand strong again You are the only one truly to see That we are impenetrable, we are a cake Cut right down the middle we're shared just a little But made again forever we stay The tiger, the bomb and a hexagon There's not much in common you think Put them together, they're flawed and they weather The storm and the flood with refusal to sink You're unpredictable, you are the fall Seasons before and after, a continuous chapter Of a cycle set in time for us all These contradictions made with such conviction Are what set us in motion tonight Tomorrow and then some even by our lonesome Together through fear and delight The tiger, the bomb and a hexagon There's not much in common you think Put them together, they're flawed and they weather The storm and the flood with refusal to sink We are invisible, we are the floor Walked over by most but without it we coast Into the abyss, no longer to soar...

Tethered 03:11
That tiny little light that never fades from within The most unnoticeable corners of my mind We're best friends you see, always have and will be I need no one else in all honesty But you Oh you You're nice and lovely You smell So clean You look so pure That light is all I need but I really want you And it appears you want me too I'd love nothing more than to live and die Knowing that I made, made you The happiest Human To ever exist No one Can take That title away from you So tether me, tether me, tie me down I won't run away, no escape, won't cry I'm tethered, tethered, tied down But honestly, no place I'd rather be than bound by you Honestly no place I'd rather be than bound by you.

To carry a sigh across the sea; The wind must love the sound; A curious why, a lover's plea; Such winds will carry around; For melodies to travel the breeze; The meadow must show delight; The birds and trees and flowers and bees; Now sing with all their might; They keep afloat for some time; But torn wings weren't meant to thrive; A ring drawn down to be; The first cast aside; To look at you and say; That I am not your enemy today; To be alive, just to be; Your enemy is what you see; To look at you and say That I am not your enemy today. To be alive just to be Your enemy is what you see.
