lyrics

shadows pool behind my pupils as I'm searching for a spark
never truthful to my senses they keep the lenses dark
impart tension to my heart as I think through inky curtains
sink until I think that only hurt is certain
but I'll never stop my searching for the light behind my eyes
some days its hard to get up by the sun will always rise
aspire without limits give it all you got and thrive
I got all I need for happiness the world and I'm alive
cause its so damn beautiful
man I can's say nothing more true to y'all
cause the hard times they are still mine
I'm without regret and forget rewind
cause my mind is the key to my freedom
things depend on how you see them
so love each moment the best I can
keep breathing and stick to the plan

be happy and die trying
I'ma burn until I burn out gonna fall until I'm flying
be happy and die trying
I'm gonna burn until I burn on out

breathe in what nourishes the place where courage is
encouraging us to crush doubt and live
to just bust out of this bus route mindstate
driving round in circles never to reach the highway
sitting in my driveway thinking about my day
doing my best to try and see it my way
breathing deep like the bellows of a furnace
set fire to this fellow get him burning in earnest
and each time the flame flickers it's a lesson I'm learning
push my soul push my body I'm determined to earn it
but I ain't worried though it's a winding progression
through all this mess and mud this is my simple message

be happy and die trying
I'ma burn until I burn out gonna fall until I'm flying
be happy and die trying
I'm gonna burn until I burn on out
