Track Name: The Things We Leave Behind
Life’s roads continue winding, with every bend and fork I face. I will no longer falter or slow down - these roads will always change. Destiny is shaped by which I take. A blur of white lines guide the way but it’s something that I must face. I’ve been stuck in this town all of my life - everything I long for seems so distant. The only thing that holds me here is family and only the memories can be carried with me. As I walk this path I may feel alone, but while there’s still blood in my veins I will find my way.

I've got to get out; I want to get out. I'll leave this town but I’ll never forget; hold the memories close and swallow regret - leave this town. I’ve got to get out; I need to get out – so sick of routine. These shattered dreams can set me free, I’ll rebuild each piece. Everyone bone in me, screams for release. Leave it all behind. Get me out. Still searching for the right road. Blinding lights and sequenced lines mark the way - I try to keep my sight, lift my chin and keep my head up high. This road I take is silent yet my thoughts resonate, as I try to find direction on a road where slowing down isn’t an option.

There’s no hope of slowing down; feel the wind against your face and follow that road past darkness and hope. It’s a chance we have to take; eventually things will fall into place.
Track Name: Further
Your eyes open, yet your mind is closed. How can depth and meaning be so easily overlooked by clouded judgement and no further thought? There’s a whole different perspective on the other side. We can be unset from our ways; there’s room for change. To keep an open mind we must view from both sides. There’s always room for change. As humans we hold opinions, but we cannot allow them to control us or cloud us or misguide us.

With eyes open escape your mind; leave your shallow judgements behind. Not everything is black and white. Define your spectrum through grey. There are always different sides to everything and other people’s perspectives drawn from their lives. Escape your mind – question why. Hold it in your hands; clouds leave the sky. View both sides as colours return.
Track Name: An Expression
This is where we stand and we will not be moved. Everything we’ve believed in or ever known, will not be disregarded with a passing wave. We will stand strong and brace; (hold our values), cement our feet and hold our place. We will overlook negativity and strive to become better people from day to day. And we will always know our place. This space will never be outgrown; it’s what we know as home.

This is where we’ve grown and we still feel the same, our past has shaped our future for what we believe today. When everything falls away we will always know our place. Even if we walk this road alone, we won’t turn back, in the hope that people will follow who feel the same.
Track Name: Petrichor
The rain pours down, washing yesterday away. Every day brings change, I’m unaware of what I’ll face. I know each day is different, yet I still live this way. I need to shake off this doubt; rid my head of these dark clouds.

Where has it gone, a memory that once was? A new day, washed out and stripped away; I seek comfort in yesterday. Let it rain; wash everything away. Tear through my veins; these clouds that hang grey. I’m trying to find the answers, but my questions still remain. I’m so lost in the present; can the future really hold change? Let it rain; tear through my veins.

Tomorrow is a different day, yet I still live this way. Will I ever regain this passing time that life has taken away from me? I’m not completely happy, but I’m unsure what I’d change.
