What's Holding You Back?

Swimming here at the beach
We’re still living so let’s go in deep
Inventing meaning in threes
To find safety in what we believe
What’s holding you back
What’s holding, what’s holding you back
I think but I don’t act
What’s holding, what’s holding you back
Winter don’t seem to last
In this desert it already passed
I’m waiting to make my escape
Concentrating before it’s too late
What’s holding you back
What’s holding, what’s holding you back
I think but I don’t act
What’s holding, what’s holding you back

American Dreams

Give me everything, it ain’t enough
I need a little more love and a lot more stuff
I need stacks of cash just to feel like I’m free
Living life for money just to feel happy
I’ve got goals and dreams, I’ve written down my needs
I want to swim in warm water, not have to think
About bills to pay, about mouths to feed
Sacrifice my days for American dreams
American dreams
American schemes
If that’s the price, then I’ll pay
To live in a world with so much greed
I, I think I’ll stay despite all the places I’d rather be
What can I do to live a little less like you
Where can I go where people are worth more than things you own
You’re looking out for yourself but you’re just as helpless
I’m looking out for myself, cause I was born selfish
Take from your brother, there’s nothing other
Than having it all to yourself
You dealt a better hand
American dreams
American schemes
American dreams
America bleeds

What happened to these memories
It repeats itself all the times you spent with me
In the air, you’re still there
I made a note and looked back to find you standing there
What lasts when life feels like it moves so fast
Am I awake? Are you asleep
I still feel you here each time you sing to me
Longing for something more
I hope I meet you there somewhere
What lasts when life feels like it moves so fast
What lasts when life feels like it moves so fast
Memories follow me

Love or Hate
01:36

Falling out of touch
With what I thought this was
Do you love or do you hate
I saw my fate, I ran away
Do you love or do you hate yourself
For being so dramatic
Can you really escape
All the things that became habits
Are you still there
Or have you finally had it with me
Running out of luck
Or at least I thought I was
Break my heart and I’m done
Or at least I thought I was
Do you love or do you hate yourself
For being so sporadic
Can you really change
Or have you become static
Are you still there
Or have you finally had it with me

Holiday
A million miles away
Will I go or will I stay
Will I pass away
Can’t conceive not to be
All I know is all I see
Do you see me in your dreams
Learn to think to learn to look to
Learn to find out that you don’t know anything
Holding on
Cause I can’t let things go
A part of you is a part of my soul
A part of me is somewhere
Can’t conceive not to be
All I know is all I see
Do you see me in your dreams
Learn to think to learn to look to
Learn to find out that you don’t know anything
