Shrinking Walls

VERSE 1

At last, I kicked the weight off my chest
At last, I'm not a goddamn mess
At last, the noise turned into sound
At last, the time has come

At last, I'm laughing and it's real
At last, I see things clearly now
At last, I felt like me for miles
At last, the time has come

CHORUS

Whoa-oh, I used to choke on every breath
Whoa-oh, Now I’m screaming loud instead
Whoa-oh, I used to crawl along so slow
Whoa-oh, Whoa-oh

VERSE 2 

At last, I trashed the script they wrote
At last, I tore up every note
At last, I danced without a plan
At last, the time has come

At last, I ditched the safety net
At last, no more signs of regret
At last, I wrecked my comfort zone
At last, the time has come

At Last

VERSE

Fast talk, late walk, no sleep again
Heartbeat, hard street, loop back to when
No air, no care, but there's still the need to
Jump in, teeth grit, Cut deep, slow burn

CHORUS

I just had to try, but I couldn’t
Fix the cracks in what, what you wouldn’t
Let me hold, let me see
What you hid from me
Now I know what was wrong
Always set in stone

VERSE

Flashlight truth in a tunnel, a tunnel of lies
Step too close and, the promise dies
Wrote it all down, tore up the page
Locked inside me
Wrote it all down, tore up the page
Locked inside me

Set in Stone

[Verse]
I should of seen the signs
Should of noticed your grand design
Should of broke the ties that bind
Now I see that I was blind

[Verse 2]
Every promise was a paper plane
Crumpled and lost in the pouring rain
You played your part your control was tight
But as time went on I saw the light

[Chorus]
Jeepers Creepers guess you're not a keeper
Betrayed my trust let it turn to dust
Thought you were gold but you're just a deceiver
Fooling me with lies that you adjust

[Verse 3]
Your words were candy coated with a grin
But inside you hid the thorns within
Took my dreams and tossed them out to sea
Never again will you fool me

[Verse 4]
I remember that day you played innocent
You knew yet you remained ignorant
You kept to your Insidious lies
And I saw through your hideous disguise

[Bridge]
I won't be your shadow in the night
I found my spark I'm my own light
You can run you can hide
But I'm free and I'm alive

[Chorus]
Jeepers Creepers guess you're not a keeper
Betrayed my trust let it turn to dust
Thought you were gold but you're just a deceiver
Fooling me with lies that you adjust

[Outro]
After all is said and done
You know that you're the only one
Imprinting lies upon my soul
Your deceptive ways takes it's toll
After all is said and done
You know that you're the only one
The trust we built just a charade
The wasted years I can't reclaim 

Jeepers Creepers Guess You're Not A Keeper

VERSE

Eyes are stuck to their phones
Scrollin' scrollin' until the very end
They don't notice you're there
And they don't even pretend

Living life in pixels
And the occasional heart that is on a screen
Living life for the views
Doing all they can just to feel seen

CHORUS

Oh it's a brand new day, it's a brand new day
In this zombie life we're living now
Oh it's a brand new day, it's a brand new day
In this zombie life

It's a brand new day, it's a brand new day
In this zombie life we're living in
Oh it's a brand new day, it's a brand new day
in this zombie life

VERSE 2

Living life for the likes
Never looking up to see what is there
Life is passing them by
And nobody seems to care


Oh me, oh my!
Zombies everywhere...

BRIDGE

In this zombie life

Zombie Life

“Resilient Heart" is a 90s-inspired grunge rock anthem for the ages. This track channels the raw energy and angst of the era, powered by a deep, gritty baritone vocal that soars into a stadium-sized chorus. It's a song forged in the fires of adversity, a testament to the unbreakable spirit that thrives in the face of conflict. If you've ever felt like you were born for the fight, this one's for you.

(Verse 1)
Forged in the fires where the shadows lament,
Schooled by Reapers and Legends, make the bullies repent.
They swing, they strike, try to shatter my core,
But I’m carved from the fight, I was born for the war.

(Pre-Chorus)
Legends and ghosts forged my will to defend,
No fear, no doubt, I’ll protect to the end.

(Chorus)
Resilient heart, roaring through the night,
Unbreakable souls, prefer not to fight.
Schooled by the Reapers, I shatter cruel reign,
Resilient hearts, always thrive through the pain.

(Verse 2)
Every scar’s a blade, every fall’s a throne,
Legends taught me to stand, carved my will into stone.
World’s a furnace, but my spirit’s a spark,
With their voices in my blood, I’ll ignite in the dark.

(Pre-Chorus)
Legends and ghosts forged my will to defend,
No fear, no doubt, I’ll protect to the end.

(Chorus)
Resilient heart, roaring through the night,
Unbreakable souls, prefer not to fight.
Schooled by the Reapers, I shatter cruel reign,
Resilient hearts, always thrive through the pain.

(Bridge)
No mercy, no pause, I’m the tempest, I’m the storm,
Grim Reapers shaped me, for the weak I’m their swarm.
I’m the guardian, I’m the tide, rising fierce, ever strong,
Harm the meek, cross that line, and you’ll drown with this song.

(Chorus)
Resilient heart, roaring through the night,
Unbreakable souls, prefer not to fight.
Schooled by the Reapers, I shatter cruel reign,
Resilient hearts, always thrive through the pain.

(Outro)
Through the ashes, through the pain, I’m alive, I’ll remain,
Resilient hearts, always thrive through the pain.
(End)



Resilient Heart

(Verse 1)
You slide in like static on the radio
Midnight perfume, dressed in vertigo
Eyes like crime scenes, lips a cigarette
I lit your fuse, but I’m the one who’s wrecked

(Pre-Chorus)
You said, “Love’s a game,” and I’m a bad sport
Always chasing hearts I can’t afford

(Chorus)
Velvet cigarettes and neon sins
You’re poison wrapped in silk and gin
I swear I saw heaven when you said my name
Now I’m coughing up stars in your hurricane
You taste like trouble, and I’m still addicted
Every kiss a crime, and I got convicted

(Verse 2)
We danced like secrets on the fire escape
Your laugh was louder than my big mistakes
I should’ve known from the start,
You play guitars like you play hearts

(Pre-Chorus)
Said “Don’t get close,” but pulled me in tight
I lost my head in your blacklight

(Chorus)
Velvet cigarettes and neon sins
You’re poison wrapped in silk and gin
I swear I saw heaven when you said my name
Now I’m coughing up stars in your hurricane
You taste like trouble, and I’m still addicted
Every kiss a crime, and I got convicted

(Bridge)
And now your ghost is in my speakers
Singing lies in perfect pitch
I tried to quit you cold,
But you're the needle and the itch

(Final Chorus)
Velvet cigarettes and neon sins
I’d light you up all over again
Even if it burns, I’ll take the flame
You're the bruise that feels like fame
You taste like trouble, and I’m still addicted
Love like yours should be restricted

This is the first mix before vocals. Basically did all this between 10am and 1:30PM today. I really dig this song and the band, I have for years. I wish I knew the singer so we could do this mix justice. But I am going to be tracking all the vocals myself starting in the next few days. It's going to be a real challenge.
