LYRICS:

Well I guess we’re only human after all
We laugh, we cry, we hurt, we sigh
and overthink the simplest things in life
We tell ourselves we’ll be the best that we can be
Well I wish that I could fly away
and live a fantasy
where I was perfect
and everything you’d need

If every avenue could take me away
I swear I wouldn’t waste another day
‘Cause I’m trying so hard to find a piece of me
A part of me I lost along the way

I guess goodbyes are so much harder than we think
We tear apart, and try so hard
to just erase the page now stained with ink
We tell ourselves that life goes on — I guess we’ll see
Well I wish that I could fly away,
escape reality where we are broken
and it’s just so hard to breathe

You took my breath and so much more
You took my hand —
Please don’t let go
We crossed the line drawn in the stand
We’re wishing we could just be
perfect again

Piece of Me

Piece Of Me

Frontman of Save It For The Weekend, 1/5 of I Became Nothing, and 1/2 of September in a Day, Because Matt is no stranger to the music industry. Recently Matt has taken the plunge to launch his career as a solo singer-songwriter. Well, solo is maybe a bit of a strong word. What story worth talking about is done alone — Matt is joined by drummer Jarryd West and bassist Alex Mayers.
