lyrics

Here’s another lesson learned
Life’s not quite as awesome as the movies make it out to be
At any point you might get hurt so try and be as well prepared, as much as you could ever be
We’ve seen the sun go down on many situations when we needed much more light to see
One day the sun will break the clouds and we won’t be as frustrated as when we couldn’t help with anything

We were unstable, emotionally drained, cut out to complain
We were unable to see things we’re meant to see, inhale air we’re meant to breathe

Here’s a piece of bad advice
Assume that life is awesome and then deal with the consequence
You might not fall asleep at night but at least you’ll be prepared for any shit you might experience
We’ve seen the clouds dissolve when we really need their shade to protect us from the sun
One day we’ll watch those clouds reform and we’ll figure out a difference in the good and bad things we have done
