Lyrics: Drew Weikart
Music: The Amends

lyrics

People seem to let you down
Break smiles into a frown
Their dreams have gone away
Cold hearts they have no faith

Walk about the beaten path
Feel what fear keeps from a man
Oh it can soothe the soul
One thing they’ll never know

Go about with what you’ve dreamed
Make your life like you have seen
Oh well is that enough
Who did you make feel loved

Maybe I should let it go
Settle down and take it slow
That’s not my life to live
I’ve got much more to give

Ohhhh ohhh ohhh ohhh
Ohhhh ohhh ohhh ohhh

Faces pass me in the night
Shadows keep me far from sight
A world without a care
Wait to come up for air

Bend the wood upon the oak
Let the night hold back your choke
Oh but I lost a friend
Dreamed how he met his end

Maybe it was meant to be
Life can’t teach what death can see
But that’s a different time
Carved out of a different rhyme

Maybe I should let it go
Settle down and take it slow
That’s not m y life to live
I’ve got much more to give

Ohhhh ohhh ohhh ohhh
Ohhhh ohhh ohhh ohhh

People seem to let you down
Break smiles in to a frown
Their dreams have gone away
Cold hearts they have no faith

Walk about the beaten path
Feel what fear keeps from a man
Oh it can soothe the soul
One thing they’ll never know

Go about with what you’ve dreamed
Make your life like you have seen
Oh well is that enough
Who did you make feel loved

Maybe I should let it go
Settle down and take it slow
That’s not my life to live
I’ve got much more to give

Well yeah yeah yeah yeah
Well yeah yeah yeah yeah
Well yeah yeah yeah yeah come on now

Hold me up, Hold me down
I’ll break through with my sound
I’ve got no time to hate
My destiny's too great
I’m not scared, I won’t fold
I’ll dare to be so bold
What is the right in life
I’ll ask him when I die

Well yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Well yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Well yeah, yeah yeah yeah
