Paradise Church 7in7 - Day 1

Forest

Well I tried to find some comfort
In a place I didn't know
I'm a stranger in a desert
I'm a name that no one knows

Could I find a home
I would stay forevermore
But I'm lost without the rainfall
and I fear I'll never grow
and all that I remember
are the visions of the trees
Their smiles are all I wanted
because that's how it's supposed to be

If I fight my way from empty
In the ashes of the trees
Will I look to see my footsteps
from where I'm supposed to be
And all that I remember
When I'm waking from a dream
Are the faces of my loved ones
that I can never see

Well I tried to find some comfort
In a place that I don't know
I'm a stranger in the desert
I'm a name that I don't know

Forest

Paradise 7in7 day 2

I've been searching in the middle of far and wide
I'll try and find you out in the cold
I've been tossing throughout every sleepless night
Working out how to show you the road

Through the beauty and scars I can see the life
In a bottle you're finding a home
You're a creature that I've never seen alive
I'm candle that's caught in the wind

Every morning I'm trying to stay inside
But I'm scared that I'm losing control
And the look that you gave me was so divine
But your storm still rages along

So take my hand

Cut and Run

Paradise 7in7 - Day 3

Could you save your life?
Could you even try?
Was it worth all of the hearts you left behind?
In the hopes that you might somehow get it right?

Well I know whats coming next

You promised me you'd try
Forgive me when I lie
Was I worth all of the trust you left behind?
Did you forget when you promised to the sky?

Well I know whats coming next

Bury your secrets down in the ground
cause thats where you find your comfort
Bury your secrets down in the ground
so you can see them again

Know What's Coming Next

Paradise 7in7 - Day 4

This is just a song about the need to write a song
I'm struggling to find the words to say
The irony is clear
And I'm really stretching here
But 9pm is when it must display

This is just a song about my fear to write a song
And pen some truthful words upon the page
Cause people just might hear
So I can't sing to beer
Not that I would do that anyways

Well now I'm free and clear
The end is nearly here
And then I'll finally call this one a day
This is just a song about my fear to write a song
I'm terrified of what my friends could say

Just A Song

I'm too tired to write a song
Gonna make it up as I go along

I'm too tired to find the words
So I'm wasting time with another verse

I'm too tired to write a song
So I'll play it slow to reach my goal
