In the Trenches

"these promises i make to you

as a word tied to gratitude

i have the pleasure to please you

when the days has taken a toll on your heart

& it seems pointless to start

ill keep you pressing on

even if i’m on my own

cause i’ve got faith

in the wake of these days

that you won’t have to continue to escape

you’ll embrace it

hopes & dreams, you’ll chase it

cause as the world keeps turning

in our place the fire of time keeps burning

studying each other, constantly learning

even if the lesson’s hurting

see the sun in my eyes

test your limits, touch the sky

it’s impossible, as such a pot of gold

but you’ve got my hand to hold

so here we go"
