We've all been there.

lyrics

Pause
(2011)

I woke up this morning, with the daylight
I was so grateful for it.
And it filled up my room, just like a yellow balloon,
I felt the darkness lift.
Now, I believe, I have seen, the darkest part of the day.

I went out, and I walked around
Things seem so much clearer to me now.
I’ve been young before, now I’m old again
I make the same mistakes over and over again.

So let me pause, and Thank you
For giving me back to myself.

And your way, it’s such a hard way for me.
Sometimes I wish I could reach out with a greater understanding,
And give it all back to you.
And I don’t believe, you have ever seen, the darkest part of my day.

And if the road turns hard, and the sky turns dark
Well you know where to find me.
And I never did tell you that the kindest thing you gave me,
Was release.

So let me pause, and Thank you
For giving me back to myself.
