A bitter storm ends, which you had your sights on Back in junior high, to lock yourself in Just keep it held up, till your arms just shake And the hopes are falling down your face Before they were ironclad, and they were held up high Now they just keep you from sleep at night Undeserving, I Shot for the nearest exit sign July, we gave up, and its death to think All we could've gained if we'd just held out The fields that we ran, and I'm at the end Of every edge I could've swore I had It's not that hard, it was impossible July, we gave up, and its death to think All we could've been if we'd just held out Some swore, I walked away It's light, how the sun never met that line And shapes who we are today I looked to the path we were taking, long Decided it wasn't at all I blinked at the rows, and they soldiered on I thought "they're on their own" Just carve out your heart to move forward, or don't Dreams die every day Like wading through hell Purposefully, you're caught In high water still This moment is yours for the taking, long After the follow through You already proved you were valid Can't bring yourself to anymore And that's ok Are we better off Than we were back then? Do you regret what you've done? Are you over it? Are we better off Than we were back then? Did you not have the strength to slay the summer wind? Are we better off Then we were back then? Do you regret Giving in to the undercurrent?
