about

Second single from the EP 'The Life That I Have' due out 31 January 2020.

lyrics

What came easy
Oh the frustration
What a cruel hand
You’ve been dealt

To see the wave coming
With nowhere to run to
And just our hands to hold

It’s a family affair
To make peace with despair
And singing songs
To stave away the tears

A wreck in slow-motion
So slow it seems normal
That each fresh loss, stings less

But joy finds a way through
Through each new hole in our hearts
To even laugh at how lucky we are

It’s a family affair
To make peace with despair
And singing songs
To stave away the tears

How many goodbyes
Do we have in us?
But give me strength
For the last
