When my heart breaks
I turn to my guitar
And play a sad tune
Dream from afar
There once was this girl
I knew her back when
When life was so easy
She was my friend
Saw her each day
It was just a matter of fact
No thoughts of romance
Never turned to that
We went our own ways
Paid it no heed
And I followed my path
It was blazed by greed
Chased object fortune
Chased power and fame
Was driven by judgment
Fell victim to the game
Ascended the ladder
Was handed the key
I started to believe
It was all about me
Strayed from my promises
I fell into the void
I met all sorts of trouble
Oh my life was destroyed
Lost all that mattered
I was the king dethroned
And I cried endlessly
And I cried all alone
I searched for some answers
I searched for the truth
The mystery was revealed
Revisiting my youth
As I learned hard lessons
By diving deep in my pain
She suddenly appeared
The girl from back then
We talked and reminisced
About a simpler day
She shared joys from her life
Her presence swept me away
I wanted to tell her
Now that I could see
That I wanted to hold her
Touch her love and beauty
But instead I just listened
Until she said this was nice
It was good to catch up
And she was off into the night
I'm left here in pieces
Having seen what I missed
I'm the cause of my own heartbreak
I'm the sole cause of this
Life's full of surprises
They leap out from nowhere
Knock us off balance
Send us reeling in despair
When my heart breaks
I turn to my guitar
And sing a sad tune
Dream from afar

Let it Rule You

Let it in
Let it rule you
Let it in
Let it rule you
When things get so bad
That you feel like giving up
Let it in
Let it in
Let it rule you
Let it in
Let it rule you
When the pain rips you apart
And you can’t go on
Just let it in
No one said it’d be easy
No way to prepare
No one promised you a miracle
Not that simple
Let it in
Let it rule you
Let it in
Let it rule you
