See your life
Inside a frame
Tear it off the wall
Conformity
Forgot to wink
Silence is a crowded place to stay

Faking never takes away the pain
Nothin do
Nothin do
Cocaine never take away the pain
But it almost do
It almost do

Tell me ways
I can change
Tell me lies
Tell me truths
Tell me all of your miserable traits
Value fades
In a haze
Cuz everything you want is gonna end up in the hands of someone else

Patience never takes away the pain
Nothin do
Nothin do
Cocaine never takes away the pain
But it almost do
It almost do

Shangri-blah

Chris went out for a bike ride one afternoon and never came back. He woke up in a hospital with a broken spine, a TBI (brain injury), and a face so swollen it hurt to speak. Doctors said he was lucky to be alive. And yet somewhere in the midst of all that, still in a chest brace, he started making music again. Songs about almost dying. About the trauma. But also about gratitude. Choosing to live. He would later discover an entire album he has no memory of making. "Carrying On" is the 1st single from that album.

Lyrics:

Can't all win all the time
Can't always be right
There’s another side of the coin
But I'm trapped playing my life

Moved away and bleached your hair
Barely recognized you there
Had a kid and changed your name
But your laugh is still the same

The longest shortest day

Carrying on
Carrying on

Took my bike out for a ride
Woke up breathing through a tube
I still have dreams where I am flying
And I’ve got something to lose
I used to trust that id be fine
Now I cant stop all this crying

Just crawling up that hill

Carrying on
Carrying on
Carrying on
Carrying on
