Searching for your reflection somewhere in our eyes as our hearts echo into fragile silence. Expressing myself, I choke every time. I am a balance of broken feelings and wishful thinking. I long for the past one day at a time, night after night..
Nostalgia forever
Can we, can we finish what we started? Can we find a way to stop the blows that broke us from the start?
Can we, can we finish what we started? (I'm not who I want to be) Can we find a way to stop the blows that broke us from the start? (Cause they keep coming down on me)
You polish every facet of my insecurities. Even when I try to hide my face, you promise.. you promised that everything would be alright.
I am changing colors. I am an iridescent tone. A city in my eyes. A quiet place inside the pines.
And if I say that this is impossible, I'll still be right where you led me. In the doorway of all my hopes and dreams.
I'm still waiting (x3)
..to let you in.
Stand taller. (x3)
Can we, can we finish what we started? Can we find a way to stop the blows that broke us from the start?
Can we, can we finish what we started? (I'm not who I want to be) Can we find a way to stop the blows that broke us from the start? (Cause they keep coming down on me)
I search for inspiration somewhere between the clouds, the power lines and the pines. Your grace perfected a vision and I am surrounded by evergreens. Now I can stand taller.
I am the clouds. (x2)
I am the heavy drifter.

These dudes are close friends and amazingly talented. Not to mention our producer, Greg, wrote all the music. Lyrics and vox are credited to our good pal Derril. Definitely a sick record, so jam it! Beyonder
