Name: Given by Paul Johnson
Duration: 6 min 12 s
Description: A song about life. Finding yourself through hardships, love and family and fate etc........Not quite there but has promise.

needs totally reimagining. bit droning in tone. like the end solo. like the guitar hook too. 

Self explanatory song about letting go of the past and embracing the future.
Needs a simple percussion track added and I was thinking maybe cello in the intros leading up to the verses. Maybe also lowering the key (undecided on that point).

say goodbye 

say goodbye to Monday
there's a Tuesday around the corner 
and the wind blows on regardless 
of this unfolding drama

take a step back 
in stress and strife 
there is a chance for better life
they who can hear then let them hear
there's nothing to hold you to your fear

and the struggles that we face
they are meant to test our faith
cast failure out and be done with doubt
there is enough of this about
lay down your guns
and talk to the ones who are the reason for your wrongs

say goodbye to winter
there's a spring around the corner 
and the wheels will keep on turning 
and the fires always burning
shake off the dust
take hold of the day
there is a hope for those who may
they who can hear then let them hear
there's nothing to hold you to your fear

and the struggles that we face
they are meant to test our faith
cast failure out and be done with doubt
there is enough of this about
lay down your guns
and talk to the ones who are the reason for your wrongs

say goodbye to voices
they that whisper in the darkness
with words that seek to harm you
and the hands that can disarm you
hold your head high
have strength to say
nothing can keep me from this day
they who can hear then let them hear
there's nothing to hold you to your fear

and the struggles that we face
they are meant to test our faith
cast failure out and be done with doubt
there is enough of this about
lay down your guns
and talk to the ones who are the reason for your wrongs


solo

and the struggles that we face
they are meant to test our faith
cast failure out and be done with doubt
there is enough of this about
lay down your guns
and talk to the ones who are the reason for your wrongs
