We all have those days when you want someone to take us by the hand and lead us out of a bad situation into a better one. This song is a slice of summery punk pop dedicated to anyone tempted to sit in their sadness and ignore the opportunity for change.
lyrics
If the wasted go stumbling
Like they're dead on their feet
Or the proud take a tumble
Not missing a beat
Is it my time of humbling
Cos I'm feeling the heat
With my confidence crumbling
I just need some relief
Some peace
It's been a long time for searching
Of facing my fears
It's been a hard time of hurting
Of counting the tears
But of one thing I'm certain
These sarcastic jeers
Won't be my final curtain
It's starts to come clear
So clear
Faith stepped up
Shut the door on fear
Said c'mon let's get out of here
So I'm leaving hand in hand
With peace and love
I'm my new way of thinking
I'm drawn to the light
And when it feels like I'm sinking
I'm learning to fight
Shattered dreams face extinction
From my new lease of life
The one big distinction
I got back my sight
Tonight
Faith stepped up
Shut the door on fear
Said c'mon let's get out of here
So I'm leaving hand in hand
With peace and love
I'm with peace and love
I'm with peace and love
Faith stepped up
Shut the door on fear
Said c'mon let's get out of here
So I'm leaving hand in hand
With peace and love
