lyrics

He said, "Cut your losses, kid. Cuz when you're an old man like me, you can't walk away."

Well now I'm that old man.
Lost count of my scars.
And I wasn't even, supposed to live this long.
I've been broken, sure, but I've never been beaten.
Been cracked in two, but I'm still undefeated.

Trust few.
Fear no one.
Push through.
And never settle down.
Hold fast.
To those dreams.
Die last.
And always live your dash.
Always live your dash.

Another song..... Another Summer.
Some place in this is....
Some where in this is....
I dunno.
I am not a simple man.
Have mercy.
And lay my burdens down.
Have mercy....
And lay, my burdens down....

Cut. Me. Down. I. Grow. Back.

They last forever.

So I cut my losses.
And I learned to fail forward.
But it's true I can't walk away....
Well now I'm that old man.
Lost count of my scars.
And I wasn't even, supposed to live this long.
I've been broken, sure, but I've never been beaten.
Been cracked in two, but I'm still undefeated.

Trust few.
Fear no one.
Push through.
And never settle down.
Hold fast.
To those dreams.
Die last.
And always live your dash.
Always live your dash.

It starts all over again....

idiedtrying. - A mission of creating timeless & compelling music, with a cinematic context & pushing the boundaries of emotion within art.

Sometimes beautiful, often joylessly melancholy but most accurately described as horrific. Forever art-damaged. Complete murdered auditory terrorism. The peak of transient delving, compulsive emotional mutilation.

Uncategorical and terrifyingly cathartic. ... more
