about

This song is actually just a dream; the dream was that I uploaded this song three years ago.

lyrics

Sliced this hole through space-time
This past of mine
It was six years wide
And I never knew why

I stepped through a door in sand
And saw a castle on the other side
So high
Floating in the sky

Locked inside a hive mind
But this ain't right
And I can't rewind

I won't be buried alive
With my hands in the dirt
And my head hung low for a while
Tried and I tried
But tonight's not the night
So let's hang it up and move on again

What is the price
To drop my morals and roll
With my
Pride?

Minds collide
In a gorgeous display
Of colors fading to white
Tried and I tried
But tonight's not the night
So let's hang it up and move on again

Will I be a fortress
Or am I a paper house?
The kind that sways
And folds and crumples
When the rains come crashing down

There's a burning desire
For what I used to be
And it's pulling me higher
Toward what I'm meant to see

Will I be

There's a burning desire for
What I'm meant to see

So I smile
With a nod to the rest
And my head held high for a while
Tried and I tried
But tonight's not the night
So let's hang it up and move on again
Ooh-oh-oh
Yeah I tried, oh I tried
Tried for a while
Ooh-oh-oh
Oh I tried
Move on again
