Accolade 01:59
I wear my mind on my sleeve through valor and lost hope | This is to those that followed me when I stepped past the lines | You pushed me through
2.
You made yourself who you | Why won't you listen to the words we have to say? | We want what's best for you | Apparently family is no longer worth your time | Your stubborn acts show the ignorance you have | You bitter man | You made yourself who you are | This is what you chose | You bitter man | You made yourself who you are | You are who you choose to be | Like a time bomb inside you | Your life is waiting to explode | Counting down to the day | When you have burned every bridge | That connected you to the ones who watched you suffer | In a broken home and become the man | You should have never been | Don't throw your life away | It's only a matter of time and it's running out | Your pride will destroy you | Like a time bomb inside you | Your life is waiting to explode | Counting down to the day | When you have burned every bridge | That connected you to the ones | It doesn't matter what you say | Your actions speak louder than words | The bridges you've burned will not light the way | Only the paths that are gone forever | These are the bridges that you've burned | I am the last bridge you'll ever burn
3.
Have you ever felt like you were alone in the world? | Walking through it always the opposite as everyone else | You don't have to feel that way anymore | As I walk this path I chose | I will never walk alone | You were always there for me | You will never let me down | Though this road is narrow | You can come with me | And never be alone again | Though this road is narrow | You can follow me | And never be alone again | You are my Veronica | And I will never let you down | You have shown me the way | And stayed by my side | You are my Veronica | You are my truth | And I will never let you go | You are my Veronica | The Truth | I will never walk this world alone again | You are the only one | As I walk this path I chose | I will never walk alone | You were always there for me | You will never let me down | You are my Veronica
4.
Pillars 04:00
"It's not enough," you've been told | But I know that you're still here | You won't lose your ground again | Drowned out by the crumbling path | You worked so hard to achieve | And your tears are swept away by the empty stream | But there's more than this | It didn't have to be this way | From the top to the leveler | Just like you were before | I'm made to bring you down with me | Abandon all hope | I'm made to bring you down with me | And fall asunder | The pillars are falling into the oceans | I knew you'd come calling | The pillars are falling | I knew you'd be waiting | It used to be so easy to stay above this mass | But now you're on your own | And these words become all but hollow | This is the end forever | I knew you'd be waiting | The pillars are falling into the oceans | I knew you'd come calling | This is the end forever | I knew you'd be waiting
5.
Can you feel the weight of the crowd behind you? | Breathing down your neck | They have pressured you into this | You have fallen to temptation | This will be the death of you | You have so much left to live for | And I've been down that road before | Now I will not let them in | This is your life | Make the best of it | Now's the time to prove yourself | Why do you continue to hurt yourself? | Why do you keep doing this to yourself? | Why? | And I've been down that road before | Now I will not let them in | This is your life | Make the best of it | Now's the time to prove yourself | Now's your chance to be anything | Anything you want | Now's your chance at life

about

This EP is all about going against the grain. Do not stick with one thing or ideal if your heart is in many others. You have the power to do it all. Do not be held back by anyone or anything. Do not follow in line with everyone else trying to impress. Step past that line. Follow what you believe in. When all the waves are headed your way, hold your head high and keep pressing "Against the Tides."
