Let's Skate ft. Jonas Hedrick

The End Of The World

As the crowd rushes the stage,
all the cobwebs blow away,
and the memories of your fears, 
flooding back.
As the see-saw rises out,
from the sand pit in the ground,
you see obstacles between you and the floor. 

What comes up always comes down, always a friend who hides his frown,
you can never see him coming till it's late.
Oh, the ground approaches quick,
and you're not ready for it,
as you're bouncing and you're landing on your face. 

Up and downs.
This is life?
Can you take it in your stride.
Ins and out.
Side to side.
Can't seem to get the balance right. 

As the blood pours down your face.
You can see they've raised the stakes,
and there's nothing left to do but have a crack.
Though kept down you raised me up,
in this world of buttercups,
to and fro-ing as the balance works us out. 
The see saw crashes down,
when one side seeks the ground,
yes it's easy to forget about who you owe.
But to play games on your own,
is a fools errand you know.
I'll lift you back up if you keep it safe for me. 

Up and downs.
This is life?
Can you take it in your stride.
Ins and out.
Side to side.
Can't seem to get the balance right. 

Oh, the nerves you feel for days,
that will just not go away.
Or the thoughts that keep lying awake at night.
Or, a day out on the sand,
and your feet on salty land.
Are just different edges, same old butchers knife.

Up and downs.
This is life?
Can you take it in your stride.
Ins and out.
Side to side.
Can't seem to get the balance right.

It’s a long way up from here
But if I go will they sense my fear
Nowhere to go, nowhere to steer
It’s only up from here

I believe there a happy ending to everyone’s story
So let me be and fly away and do what was meant for me
I wanna believe that the worlds will collide 
And you’ll see the darkness that we hide
But you’ll never know
(Woah)
(Woah)
(Woah)
It’s only up from here
(Woah)
(Woah)

It’s a long way up from here
But if I go will they sense my fear
Nowhere to go, nowhere to steer
It’s only up from here

it’s only up from here

Bequest

A somewhat poetic take on depression and finding hope despite what is happening in life. Originally written many years ago while still a freshman in high school. I find it still rings just as true now.  **If you would prefer to listen without the rain in the background, I posted a version without it on my YouTube channel.❤️**

Lyrics
Rain falling on the window pane,
Like tears rolling down my face.
Longing for a better day.
When will sunshine come and fill my eyes?
Bring light to these cloudy skies,
And peace instead of sleepless nights.

I’m told that this too will pass,
But they can’t see through this glass.
All I can see is endless rain.
To long for more would just be pain.

Wind howling through my restless mind.
Stirring worries in my life.
Tearing at my wordless cries.
I stand in a hurricane of endless trails.
A path of thorns that goes on for miles.
Just want to stop and sleep a while.

I’m told that this too shall pass.
I can’t help but smile and laugh.
All I can feel is endless pain,
But still I pray to end the rain.

Faith is believing things you cannot see.
It doesn’t mean they will not be.
So maybe one day I will be set free.
Now, I hear the storm calming down.
I see a light coming ‘round.
I guess that hope can be found.

In the rain
