Concussion

You can't stop your fate
There's never been a reason to try
Survive and take the best parts of life when you go.

Lying face down on the pavement
Broken gravel under my skin
I can't recall how I got here
Just give me a chance to catch my breath
Slow this down, time speeds up
Follow the setting sun
There's no mistakes
Only moments we learn
The days that we regret
Are the days we won't forget

Oh how life kills innocence
Dreams float away with the wind
Memories run in circles in my head
And lose every lesson we learned
Guard and protect from the things that we need
And watch as the strongest ones become the weakest
If only life could stay this way
Life could stay this way

Bump on my head, cuts on my chest
Black out, wake up, do it again
Carry me home, just need some rest
I swear those days I'll never forget
Slow this down, time speeds up
Follow the setting sun
There's no mistakes
Only moments we learn

Oh how life kills innocence
Dreams float away with the wind
Memories run in circles in my head
And lose every lesson we learned
Guard and protect from the things that we need
And watch as the strongest ones become the weakest
If only life could stay this way
Life could stay this way

This pain that you are feeling lasts only for a while
Your righteous indignation hijacks your worried mind
Don't run away from the strain, don't settle for the lies
Just hold onto the moment and focus on the prize
The prize, the prize. Inside your mind.
