Didn’t end up exactly the way she thought it would,
those who hurt her never had to pay
No one ever said this world would be fair or true,
beautiful or blue
She paddled out onto the lake, in her canoe
water like a mirror, smooth and cool
in the mild morning mist drifts along
between the bullrushes she heard their song
‘Girl reach up out of that stone,
when you grasp the fire of the sun,
you’ll warm up all that is cold,
trapped in that stone, it will all fall around,
And you’ll be free, then you will see and believe, Ayelen, trust me’
Settled down onto a bank by the shore
a great white pine, white rocks and a black crow
on a bed of needles there she thought
days turned into years how do I reach the sun
Wasted nights and wasted years
she fought until she had no more tears
Wasted nights and wasted years
she cried until she had no more fears
An eclipse dawned for the second time
an old owl she had come to know
said ‘C’mon child this is the night, we must go
and together they rose from the snow
Her hand rose up out of the stone
she broke through what she had never known
she felt the warmth send cracks through that stone
a ray of light she caught and brought it home
And she was free then she could see and believe, Ayelen, she was free
Ayelen, Ayelen, Ayelen, Ayelen

Set to Fly

She tried her best
but it seemed to never get easy
even though the girl was oh so pretty
her smile would light up anyone’s dark
Every time she closed her eyes
she could never let a dream set to fly
why oh why
they said she was meant to sit at the door waiting to be met
So she went off
and did exactly what she wanted
but it was a mess
just like that old torn party dress
Every time she closed her eyes
she could never let a dream set to fly
why oh why
they said she was meant to sit at the door waiting to be met
Let her out, let her be
Let her out, let her be free
Every time she closes her eyes,
she now sets every single dream to fly
Every time she sees blue skies
why oh why
she learned to set their wishes aside and live her own life
she learned to set their wishes aside and live her own life

And how long will it take
for you to break
And how long will it take
with the decision you have made
A glittering castle on a mountain afar
the diamonds enlaid were pasted on the dark walls
he opened doors for the ladies and friends alike
he charmed the rest of us with the twinkle in his eye
But the chorus wasn’t convinced
Old man don’t turn around, you might see your shadow and fall
And how long will it take
for you to break
And how long will it take
with the decision you have made
And how long will it take
for you to embrace
As the water seeped through the cracks in the wall
he still shined the photographs in his broken halls
pieces of great art stashed in a vault
a life not lived for trophies and a doll
He reached out his hand, nobody was there
Only silence and nothing to make it end
And how long will it take
for you to break
And how long will it take
with the decision you have made
And how long will it take
for you to embrace the pain you have caused to all those who lost

Caught in a party every day I’ve been here
I’ve lost myself need to get the hell out of here
trying to stand up but there’s nothing they believe
and it’s hard and im tired of playing with thieves
His coked up eyes were full of lies
and he was wearing a pretty disguise
His pocket jingles there’s a smile on his face
he’s lost himself but he’s ready to buy his way
the night ends he has nothing to defend
cause he lack that insight to know he’s not right
His coked up eyes were full of lies
and he was wearing a pretty disguise
His coked up eyes were full of lies
and he was wearing a pretty disguise
The world spins, young girls go thin
he continues to grin
The world spins, young girls go thin
he continues to grin
His coked up eyes were full of lies
and he was wearing a pretty disguise
His coked up eyes were full of lies
and he was wearing the perfect disguise
Perfect disguise... open your eyes

Believe in Love

Where he’s from there is a law of what you can believe
who will take and who will fake and who is not a thief
the purpose of it all was to make him safe but now he’s questioning
this incarcerated space is starting to feel empty
Does he believe in Love
Does he believe in Love
Does he believe in Love
Try not to give it up
She gave her heart to some chosen men, she had to see
but down in flames the same way he came it always seemed to end
she wished someone would open a door show her a different way
to lay down those gloves cause fighting for love was the wrong way
Does she believe in love
Does she believe in love
Does she believe in love
Try not to give it up
I’m doing my best to try and find it
cause a life without love, I’m not buying it
Do you believe in love
Do you believe in love
Do you believe in love
Try not to give it up

It's Alright

I know you might feel alone
walking through the streets when nobody’s home
orang lights cracks in the stone
a chain link fence and a concrete throne
You’re alive, you’re alright
just so long as you keep love in your eyes
You’re alive, you will be fine
Just so long as you keep love in your mind
Dawn hits me, I’m no longer
walking the streets in the middle of the night
a new day, a morning light
from my past I can never ever hide
You’re alive, you’re alright
just so long as you keep love in your eyes
You’re alive, you will be fine
just so long as you keep love in your mind
You’re alive, you’re alright
just so long as you keep love in your eyes
You’re alive, you will be fine
just so long as you keep love in your mind
So now it’s time to stand up tall,
and not fall
The winter winds will hurt us all,
but don’t fall
but don’t fall
