Lyrics

More Die of Heartbreak feat. Erin Breeding

Verse 1, Chuckie Campbell:

My mind drifts on colorful currents of dead winds
reminded of times that proved to be timeless
listen, I'm here to fight for this
if it breaks me, I'll take that risk -- feel this
It's been a while since it all made sense
and now, I'm in a space to think
reminisce over you, my God
I've lost so many friends
succumb to the darkness, hate, and violence
I watch from a distance outside of myself
pour a drink for anyone who's left
I'm a mess --
put my hands to the flesh
of the woman I love
and I ruined any chance at her trust

We live life once, so nothing could be enough
Some things we don't come back from
I repent to a slum of drugs and fake thugs
I wonder if we've come undone -- one love
These are not lyrics, these are letters to God
We can't fall unless we rise to the top, so
walking to the beat of one singular heart
the first step is to do your part

Chorus 1, Erin Breeding (x1)

And they tell us not to dream
things will never change
everyone who tried failed
and they lost their way, they say...
that just more die of heartbreak

Verse 2, Chuckie Campbell

If the good die young, I may live forever
never claimed I was some kind of angel
My whole life, I've been living this album
words that speak louder than actions
My theory became practice, breath of my beloved
beneficent unsummoned, benevolent uncovered
covenant, my brothers, we walk for our justice
even if that means the team is just us
I stare into the sky and dream of another time
a place where we could make things right
burn and freeze like ice, be brave enough to question why
in the face of a faceless lie
These are not lyrics, these are letters to God
We can't fall unless we rise to the top, so
walking to the beat of one singular heart
the first step is to do your part

Chorus, Erin Breeding (x2)
