Verse 1 Near misty marsh where shadows creep, Stood the fortress known as Watch Keep. Through ages long, it held its ground, When storming hordes came swarming down. Verse 2 Scales and talons, claws of spite, Reptile kin in the fading light. Drakinoids flew from murky skies, Orcs and goblins with battle cries. Refrain Yet five stood fast, they held the line, Through cries of war, their fates entwined. Though stones did fall and walls did weep, Five souls remained to guard the Keep. Verse 3 Allair fierce, with arrows keen, A warrior’s eye, a spirit lean. Tipin’s axe cut silver bright, Swinging strong through endless night. Verse 4 Daffer fought with brawler’s hand, Strength like stone on shattered land. And Valeron, in armor true, Held fast against the twisted crew. Verse 5 Carness led with wolf-like eyes, Golden fire beneath the skies. Through chaos wild and battles deep, He drove them on, their strength to keep. Refrain For five stood fast, they held the line, Through cries of war, their fates entwined. Though stones did fall and walls did weep, Five souls remained to guard the Keep. Bridge The sun rose faint on broken land. The marshes scarred, the reeds did stand. They left their names, a bond of trust, As echoes fade in mud and dust.

[Verse] Stepped out on a wire across a sea of doubt Eyes on the horizon straight ahead no route Hear the whispers calling pull you off your path But your heart keeps beating tell you ain't done half [Verse] Finding all the pieces of a puzzle spread wide Running through the shadows where the fears reside Climbing up the walls that you built yourself Time to break it down don’t put dreams on the shelf [Chorus] Lost yourself but you'll find your way Running through the dark till the break of day Take a look inside you’ll see you’re strong Hear your own voice loud it won’t be long [Verse] Searching through the chaos not a map in sight Every turn a question left or maybe right Feel the ground is shaking but don’t you dare fall Just keep on walking head held tall [Chorus] Lost yourself but you'll find your way Running through the dark till the break of day Take a look inside you’ll see you’re strong Hear your own voice loud it won’t be long [Bridge] When the world is noisy listen to your soul Through the mess and clutter find your hidden goal Breathe in all the silence let it guide your moves Feel the rhythm rising once you hit your groove
(Verse 1) Oh, Tommy's got a tongue that won't be still, He chatters like the waves upon the shore; With tales of pirates and a mighty thrill, He spins his yarns 'til we can't take no more. (Chorus) Yo ho, let him talk, let him prattle away, We'll laugh and we'll groan as he goes on his spree; With every wild story, he brightens the day, But sometimes we wish he'd just let us be! (Verse 2) From morning till dusk, he’s got words to share, About the treasures buried ‘neath the sand; He’ll regale us with tales of a sea so rare, While we nod and pretend to understand. (Chorus) Yo ho, let him talk, let him prattle away, We'll laugh and we'll groan as he goes on his spree; With every wild story, he brightens the day, But sometimes we wish he'd just let us be! (Verse 3) So raise up your mugs, let’s toast to our mate, For Tommy the talker, he’s one of a kind; Though we may complain, we appreciate The joy that his chatter brings to our minds. (Chorus) Yo ho, let him talk, let him prattle away, We'll laugh and we'll groan as he goes on his spree; With every wild story, he brightens the day, But sometimes we wish he'd just let us be!
Verse 1: I’ve been crawling through the ashes, Of the bridges that I burned. Every scar’s a story, Every wound, a lesson learned. The weight was pulling me under, But I fought to catch my breath. Every stumble, every blunder, Led me further from regret. Chorus: I’ll rise again, stronger than I’ve ever been, Through the shadows and the pain, I’ll begin. From the fire within me, I’ll burn bright again. I’ll rise again, yeah, I’ll rise again. Verse 2: I’ve seen the walls come crashing down, Felt the earth shift under me. But in the wreckage, I stood my ground, Found the strength to set me free. The whispers turned to roars inside, I won’t run, I won’t hide. Chorus: I’ll rise again, stronger than I’ve ever been, Through the shadows and the pain, I’ll begin. From the fire within me, I’ll burn bright again. I’ll rise again, yeah, I’ll rise again. Bridge: The winds will howl, the skies will break, But this soul is more than they can take. From the rubble, I’ll rebuild my name, A phoenix born from the flame. Chorus (Alt): I’ll rise again, stronger than I’ve ever been, Every fall is where I find my strength within. From the fire within me, I’ll burn bright again. I’ll rise again, yeah, I’ll rise again. Outro: Through the ashes, through the fire, I’ll rise higher and higher. This is where I begin, I’ll rise again.
[Verse] Sunset bleeds into the night Got a cooler full of ice Friends rollin' in from all around This little town we're gonna tear it down [Verse 2] Bonfire blazing in our eyes Laughter echoes through the skies No worries no time to spare Moments like these are so rare [Chorus] Weekends last forever here Every night we disappear Living loud under the stars Hearts racing like fast cars [Verse 3] Streetlights flicker like a dream Dancing under moonbeam gleam Footprints left on dusty roads Memories in overload [Bridge] Phones off our world in sync Raise your glass let's have that drink Young and wild feel so alive In this moment we thrive [Chorus] Weekends last forever here Every night we disappear Living loud under the stars Hearts racing like fast cars

[Verse] Crack open a cold one feel the fizz and foam Wiggle my pinky toe like it's finding a home Dogs barking in the backyard raising a fuss Life's peculiar symphony it’s just us [Verse 2] Pinky toe dancing tapping to a dog’s tune Sun is setting early almost feels high noon Beer in my hand thinking this is how it goes Strange little moments that nobody really knows [Chorus] Beer and barking filling up the night Pinky toe tapping feels so right Dogs howling like a wild wolf show In this backyard sanctuary we let it flow [Verse 3] Neighbors peeking over asking what's the sound I'm just here laughing never feeling down Dogs and drinks make an odd kind of crew But in this madness we all find something true [Verse 4] Spilling some suds on my flip-flop feet Who knew beer and barking could be this sweet Dogs wagging tails like they know our song A weird kind of harmony but we all belong [Bridge] Pinky toe dreams and a backyard beat Beer and barking where the worlds meet Unpolished moments in a rough-hewn show Who knew life could be mixed up just so
[Verse] We once chased the stars above Laughed in the echoes of our love Now the nights are colder still Dreams dissolve down the hill [Verse 2] Hopes once blossomed in the spring Now silence is the song we sing Footsteps echo through the halls Memories patched on our walls [Chorus] Love was a sweater weather spree Worn too thin Unraveled by me Stitches ripped We fall apart Cold breeze now Pierces the heart [Verse 3] Walk the streets where we first met Snowflakes kiss I can't forget Promises fade with the dawn Loneliness A sweater worn [Bridge] Fingers trace the ghost of you In every place An empty hue Shadows linger on the floor Love's memento We ignore [Chorus] Love was a sweater weather spree Worn too thin Unraveled by me Stitches ripped We fall apart Cold breeze now Pierces the heart
