recent life events explained by lyrics
“Stand”
You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless
like you’ve lost your fight
But you’ll be alright
’Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you’re made of
You might bend ‘til you break
’Cause it’s all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you’ve had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, then you stand
Life’s like a novel with the end ripped out
The edge of canyon with only one way down
Take what you’re given before it’s gone
Start holding on, keep holding on
’Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you’re made of
You might bend ‘til you break
’Cause it’s all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you’ve had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand, then you stand
Every time you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place
“Find Yourself”
When you find yourself in some far off place
and it causes you to rethink some things
You start to sense that slowly you're becoming someone else
And then you find yourself...
When you make new friends in a brand new town
and you start to think about settling down
The things that would have been lost on you are now clear as a bell
And you find yourself, yeah that’s when you find yourself
Well, you go through life so sure of where you're headed
And you wind up lost
and its the best thing that could have happened
’Cause sometimes when you lose your way, its really just as well
Because you find yourself, yeah that's when you find yourself.
When you meet the one, that you've been waiting for
and he's everything, that you want and more
You look at him and you finally start to live for someone else
And then you find yourself, yeah that's when you find yourself
Well, you go through life so sure of where we're headed
And you wind up lost
and its the best thing that could have happened
’Cause sometimes when you lose your way, its really just as well
Because you find yourself, yeah that’s when you find yourself.
