lyrics

I violated all of my of my rules today
I violated myself in a rite of passage
I struggled with the demon inside
She got the better of me again

Something inside is trying to grow
through the dust, the chaos the dirt and the mess.
Like a phoenix from the ashes I know good can come of bad
but just how long does it take?

Like a frozen tortoise I hibernate for too long,
wearied by the circles that I spin around myself.
In a vessel pure and simple I can sail away from this hell
With only ghosts and memories to remind me of my past.

I can be up for a while, then there I go falling down again
I can be down for a while, then I will pick me up again
I can be up for a while, then there I go falling down again
I can be down for a while……..

Like the tide we all ebb and flow, it’s just the way we all…
Like the tide we all ebb and flow, it’s just the way we all…
Like the tide we all ebb and flow, it’s just the way we all…
Like the tide we all ebb and flow, it’s just the way we all…
It’s just the way we all,
It’s just the way we all,
It’s just the way we all,
It’s just the way we all,
It’s just the way we all……..go.
