about

"Don't walk behind me--I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me--I may not follow. Just walk beside me, and be my friend." Albert Camus

lyrics

Oh, the storm has gone to sea
Crawling like an old friend
It never goes as planned
No, it never goes as planned.

The tipping point was clear
you covered all your bases.
It’s why you close the doors
It’s why you close the doors.

It’s done with steel precision
Through the provences of chance
No doubt, just resolution
You’ll soldier through the plan.

The sun will warm the ground
You’ll turn to face the cold
You’ve nothing left to lose.
You’ve nothing left to lose.
