Nothing about me says I think I'm good enough
You know I've got a heart with a leak, I try to fill it up
I've been bleeding since the day I wandered
This winding road through the time I've squandered
And if I followed the trail, I know it'd lead me back to you
I know it'd lead me back to you...
I know intimately that you answer my cries with a call
But when I'm fighting just to be heard I start to feeling so small
And all the tear soaked stories of pain
Run together, start to sounding the same
But the shame is that it doesn't make any of them any less true
Oh Bravery, Can you save me?
I'm sick of saving myself
It's turned me into something else
Something I know, something under my control
It gets me where I want to go
Just tell them what they want to know
(Tell then what they want to know. Maybe they'll leave you alone)
Oh Bravery
My dreams let me see the day that I die and it's cold
My heart's beat broken and weary from living so bold
As long as I can keep the spark alive
Stoke the hope of everything that's burning inside
I've seen the end and this just ain't how I go...
Oh Bravery...

Summertime, your smile done bowled me over
Those blue eyes set me free and I was green as I could be
Dry July on a Mississippi back road
We sure could use a breeze, so we just turned up the speed
Blame it on my broke down Chevy, Blame it on the perfect spot
Blame it on that crazy southern heat
When those dark clouds came rolling, Our hearts were just unfolding
They opened up, it all came pouring down
It was you and me, we fell together laying in that field of heather
We got washed away
Running down to the bank of the river, we baptised that love forever
In that rain
Wintertime the service came a calling
I headed overseas to my responsibilities
A thousand times I ran that memory over
How good it felt to be so innocent and free
Could have been a springtime wedding, me on your front porch dancing
April showers soaked down to the bone
So put me in a cloud of lightning, far away from all this fighting
I'll ride a raindrop all the way back home
Victory, my war was finally over
Those people came to see that confetti hit the streets
Cougar Pride, a hometown hero's welcome
I lived to see the day that it rained on my parade
As the marching bands scattered, I looked for a face that mattered
And through the grey your eyes came piercing blue
And it was you and me together, A long way from that field of heather
Still washed away
Running down to the bank of the river, we baptised that love forever
In that rain

Kenton Foster - Try

I get the feeling I've been here before
This world keeps on spinning like a revolving door
It feels like I'm moving along, but I'm just going 'round
Now that I'm dizzy all worn out from racing
It feels like my heart was just put here for breaking
I just want to slip out the back and not make a sound
But you make me try
You give me that one reason why
You make me believe that behind all these clouds without lining there's blue in that sky
When everything's wrong
I'm tired and stumbling along
And I swear that I don't have the wings to fly
You make me try
Sometimes when I'm on my knees I get the feeling
I send up my prayers and they just hit the ceiling
It's hard to believe all the angels can hear me at all
A rock to the left, a hard place to the right of me
Carrying the weight of this doubt that's inside
And it's too much, it's too hard, these walls are too high to climb
You make me try...
