about

This is one of our most favorite songs we've ever written. This song only scratches the surface of how diverse our catalog of music is. Besides the ruthless intro and gorgeous sing along chorus, it sends a really positive message and has helped several of the band members deal with losses they weren't quite over. You can also expect this little jem on our future ep.

lyrics

Verse:
They're gone, they're dead, don't even try to pretend.
I'd rip out both of my eyes if that meant I could see you again.
I'm not fine everything is not okay
I could have saved your life
Sometimes I think I still can hear your voice on the phone.
Sometimes I can't stand the guilt I feel for leaving you alone.
One more day that's all I ask
Why did your candle burn out so fast?


So many times I ask myself
Why it's so hard to carry on
I know you're in a better place
There's still a life here going on

Chorus:
Stand down solder stand down
This battle can't be one alone
Lay your tired head down
There's no need to fight this anymore
I'll over come this one day even though it will never be the same
I'll carry on until the end

Although your absence may feel wrong
I'll carry on until the end
My will shall stay strong
I will fight on, I will not bend

Stand down solder stand down
This battle can't be one alone
Lay your tired head down
There's no need to fight this anymore

Bridge:

Why do the good die young
From the hands of god I'll take you back
This emptiness, this emptiness
I feel my body trembling
So much more I could have done
I hate myself more everyday
Forgive me, forgive my friend
Your loss weighs heavy on my soul.

Verse:
I will make the most of this time
As short as it seems
Although this farewell feels so somber
I will move on
There is a life still here to lead

Chorus
