Presence of Mind

Old journals burn
As I take my first step in the right direction
The weight of weary eyes lifted by hope and promise

Show them that you have found your place
Take on a world of new embrace

These are the words for everyone
And now I'll say it (again and again)
We all fight for something
It's just a matter if it's worth it in the end
This is a concept, this is a belief!
Stand for something, stand for clarity
So void of hope or drowned in vanity
These vices no longer restraining me

They say that life is meaningless,
But I have a thousand reasons to live
Now my eyes are open
Look to the skies when moments are high
Smile and shout 'I won this fight!'

These are the words for everyone
And now I'll say it (again and again)
We all fight for something
It's just a matter if it's worth it in the end
This is a concept, this is a belief!
Stand for something, stand for clarity
So, void of hope or drowned in vanity
These vices no longer restraining me

Re-emerge from broken bodies, burning bridges and flooded cities
There's no safety in numbers so find your feet, find your feet

Look to the skies when moments are high
Smile and shout 'I won this fight!'

So prove your point!

Pushed around by paper tigers
Voices louder than their conviction
All those harsh words
Are falling on deaf ears now

Pushed around by paper tigers
Voices louder than their conviction
All those harsh words
Are falling on deaf ears now

Pushed around by paper tigers
Voices louder than their conviction
All those harsh words
Are falling on deaf ears now

Pushed around by paper tigers
Voices louder than their conviction
All those harsh words
Are falling on deaf ears now
