about

From Duncan:
"Shoot for goose bumps! Write lyrics that are emotionally honest about worldly issues, social, hypothetical and/or personal situations, or anything that makes the listener's neck hairs stand up. Go for impact not necessarily #1 on the charts. If both happen then you're extra awesome. Any genre."

lyrics

Let go of the mountain, leave it behind
Leave it there for the ones coming next
Let go of the things that would drag you straight down
To the center of the wreckage

We all deserve the sun on our faces
We all deserve to fly
We're always looking for the safest of spaces
The safest of places to give it a try

Let go of the mountain, leave it behind
Leave it there for the ones coming next
Let go of the things that would drag you straight down
To the center of the wreckage

So if time is the healer of all of our wounds
Then success is the starting gun
We're always looking for the coziest tombs
The noisiest ruins to which we can run

Let go of the mountain, leave it behind
Leave it there for the ones coming next

We gotta kick off the dirt to make it work
Kick off the dirt to crawl
We're always looking for new ways to get hurt
New ways to get burnt, new ways to fall

Let go of the mountain, leave it behind
Leave it there for the ones coming next
Let go of the things that would drag you straight down
To the center of the wreckage

Say hello to the valleys, the plains & the fields
Make a way for the ones coming next
Hello to the things that will help to reveal
The beauty of the wreckage
