High

Lyrics:
Thank God above
You’ve got a second chance

Thank God because
You’ve got your second chance

you know it will be tough
it may take all you’ve got

but going through this fight
was once 
your highest aim in life

Thank God above
You’ve got a second chance

Thank God because
You’ve got your second chance

but if that slips your mind
and I am not nearby

I’ll leave this song for you
just to
remind you to keep pushing through

Thank God above
You’ve got a second chance

Thank God because
You’ve got your second chance

there’s a day ahead
on which you’ll get to rest

and look back with pride
to see
you have left this mountain miles behind

------
Tradução em Português:
Agradeça a Deus nos céus
Você ganhou uma segunda chance

Graças a Deus porque
Você ganhou sua segunda chance

você sabe que será difícil
poderá exigir todas as suas energias

mas passar por essa luta
foi uma vez
seu maior objetivo na vida

Agradeça a Deus nos céus
Você ganhou uma segunda chance

Graças a Deus porque
Você ganhou sua segunda chance

mas se isso escapar da sua mente
e eu não estiver por perto

Vou deixar essa música para você
apenas para
lembrá-lo de continuar avançando

Agradeça a Deus nos céus
Você ganhou uma segunda chance

Graças a Deus porque
Você ganhou sua segunda chance

há um dia pela frente
onde você poderá descansar

e olhe para trás com orgulho
pra ver
que você já deixou esta montanha a milhas para trás

Second Chance

Stressed

(John Stone)

Life is a bitch
I’ve heard it said  
Some people even say they’re  better off dead
You’re in a hole
Then take control
Take care of business could be good for your soul

If I were you I wouldn’t get so stressed about it
Don’t waste the moment going OhOhOh
Instead of thinking what might happen and when
If something going to happen you can deal with it then

Let’s not get stressed Lets not get stressed about it
You should keep yourself together don’t get angry or depressed
Let’s not get stressed Lets not get stressed about it
Just keep calm and keep collected when bad feelings are expressed  
Let’s not get stressed stressed ….   

It’s true the future, may not seem  bright
And there’s no answer to the problems in sight
Just down the line  things could be fine
You often find and answer if you just give it time

Stressed

Lyrics:

Take a breath
and put aside the usual ways
you see the world
try to get your judgement to wait

the other side’s view of life
may not be so black and white
how do you think
they’d explain it to you?
if they could…

Take a breath
and move from where you usually stand
it may show
that maybe it’s not us against them

Though all your views and your creed
have their good reasons to be
That’s just not what they can see

Maybe the same twisted way
they see you
is the way
you see them

Maybe the truth
is in somewhere between
us and them
me and you

-----
Tradução em Português:

Respire
e deixe de lado as maneiras
como você geralmente vê o mundo
tente fazer com que seu julgamento espere

a visão de vida do outro lado
pode não ser tão preto e branco
como você acha
que eles a explicariam para você?
se pudessem…

Respire
e saia de onde você normalmente se situa
talvez isso mostre
que talvez não seja "nós contra eles”

Embora todas as suas opiniões e seu credo
tenham boas razões para serem o que são
Isso não é o que eles enxergam

Talvez a mesma maneira distorcida
com que eles vêem você
é a maneira
como você os vê

Talvez a verdade
esteja em algum lugar
entre nós e eles
entre eu e você

Take A Breath

Runaway 

She was born in a town on the border,
Raised for the fourth of July,
She knew within 
She didn’t  fit in
Don't know why. 

She didn’t go looking for trouble,
But trouble was always round,
It was always the same,
No-one to blame
Was what she always found. 

Runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that  you’re safe in your own space. 

She moved to a part of the country,
That soon didn’t want her around,
It wasn’t long before she’s moving on
Southern bound, from town to town to town. 

Met a young man by the roadside,
She just couldn’t run anymore,
He listened to all that she said
That no-one ever listened to before. 

Runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that you’re safe in your own space,
But if the demons that you are running from are strong,
Then in your head you’ll find that they’ll follow on and on. 

She thought about all he had shown her,
And sensing her journey’s end,
She realised the safest place
Is where you finally find a friend. 

So don’t runaway and maybe you’ll find somewhere, a place,
A place to stay and feel that  you’re safe in your own space.

Lyrics:
Hold on
I know you have to leave
I know you have some places to be

but you should know
something I have noticed
that I wish someone had told me before

You must go
dishonouring our truest needs 
will make us our worst enemies

the truth is
this walk will change your scenery
but, mainly, friend, who you will come to be

yeah, this walk will change you
but what gets left behind is gonna change, too
but birds are made to fly
and nothing lasts forever even if we hold it tight

so, I guess, I’m saying
if everybody goes through their own changes

how can you know for sure
that future you and future them will keep getting along

so, before
we go our separate ways
I just wanted to say

Enjoy
This fragile combination, cause
we just don’t know what fate has in store

Enjoy
What’s right before your eyes 
before you realise, it may be gone

----------

Tradução em português:
Espere um pouco
Eu sei que você tem que ir embora
Eu sei que você tem alguns lugares para ir

mas você deveria saber
algo que eu notei
que eu gostaria que alguém tivesse me contado antes

Você deve ir
desonrar nossas necessidades mais verdadeiras
nos tornará nossos piores inimigos

a verdade é que
essa caminhada vai mudar seu cenário
mas, principalmente, amigo, quem você virá a ser

sim, essa caminhada vai mudar você
mas o que ficar para trás também vai mudar
mas os pássaros foram feitos para voar
e nada dura para sempre mesmo se o segurarmos firmemente

então, eu acho que estou dizendo
se cada um passa por suas próprias mudanças

como você pode saber, com certeza
que “você do futuro” e “eles do futuro” continuarão se dando bem

então, antes de seguimos nossos próprios caminhos
Eu só queria dizer

Aproveite
Esta combinação frágil, porque
simplesmente não sabemos o que o destino nos reserva

Aproveite
O que está bem diante dos seus olhos 
antes que você perceba, pode desaparecer

Before You Go

Is the chaos inside us inevitable, or can we silence it by simply existing?

Easier for you

I'm a music lover trying my best to make music I can be proud of.

Sou um amante da música tentando o meu melhor para fazer música da qual possa me orgulhar.

Before You Go
