about

This song started its life as a Matt Evans acoustic song until Matt and I sat down and revised the lyrics. No matter how bad today is, tomorrow can be worse. Find the good. Hold onto it and shut up with the whining. This song also references Desperation, NC--mentioned on both of our previous releases. Desperation is not Asheville but the small towns some of us came from.

lyrics

This is not Desperation,
we broke the cycle and the curse.
Today might be oh so dark,
but it could be so much worse.
We're burned out and jaded
but that's all on us
write songs of friendship
but forget how to trust

But we still
we still
we still live by these words:
"At least I'm still alive"

It's easy and pointless
to live inside of your own head
to face each day as the walking dead
and if bad luck is just stuck on you
don't discard the things we share
don't trade my company for fashionable despair

But we still
we still
we still live by these words:
"At least I'm still alive"

I wish I had the courage to say
that "I will never let you down"
even if that's a lie.
