From the Start (feat. Brani Simeonova & David Bell)

[Chorus]
These scars ain’t the same but they’re still there
And sometimes its hard to believe you still care care
I climb a mountain of these thoughts
But you’d still find me if I’m lost
Maybe from the start I got this wrong

[Verse 1]
I was used to always thinking that I never really got it
I’ve been walking round the hallway with your picture in my pocket
We can find the time to save but we can’t ever really stop it
So I wanna give you mine before the nail is in the coffin
There are times that I felt more than alone
When you were out in California we would talk on the phone
Would always wonder what we meant
I saw you right before you left
I couldn’t help but wonder
Would I ever see you again?
Yeah and thats just how the story unfolds
Theres always two opinions on whats done and whats told
In life you gotta chase the things you really want
And if its important enough to you
You’ll sacrifice to make it work
Where do I wanna be the end of the road?
These cars are taking separate ways
Im taking the tolls
And I got everyone I need right here in the car
Were going far, shooting for stars
And it ain’t easy being who we are
Its my position
Was built for the wrong conditions
Im coming back to my story and filling the part thats missing
What I shoulda had awhile ago
I’ve been here for awhile so
At the end of the day
Your smiles what I smile for

[Chorus]
These scars ain’t the same but they’re still there
And sometimes its hard to believe you still care care
I climb a mountain of these thoughts
But you’d still find me if I’m lost
Maybe from the start I got this wrong

[Verse 2]
Take a minute to breathe
Take a minute to see
Not for what it has been
But for what It could be
Like I’m crossing the sea
But I ain’t crossing for me
And if I’m falling in deep
Oh then you’re falling with me
And I would never think the things that I once thought I could be
If I never had somebody tell me follow my dreams
And honestly this music thing is so cathartic for me
Ill be the garden of Eden
You’ll be Adam and Eve
And everybody’s got a choice to take it off of the tree
But if you offer to me
Thats your proffer to keep
My intuition was built for the expedition
Im coming back to these morals and showing you there’s a difference
What I shoulda done awhile ago
I’ve been here for awhile so
At the end of the day
Your smiles what I smile for

[Outro]
These scars ain’t the same but they’re still there
And sometimes its hard to believe that you still care
I climb a mountain of these thoughts
But you’d still find me if I’m lost
Maybe from the start I got this wrong
Maybe from the start I got this wrong
Maybe from the start I got this wrong
You were the right one all along
Find me if I’m lost…
(Mountain of these thoughts)
Yeah
The other night I was flipping pictures of older days
Moving out of another house
Will I ever stay
Throwing out something old
But it was new to me
These middle school trophies won’t get me anything
I drink something for a minute to steady my mind
The chorus has me feeling like I’m on a high
The candlelights reflecting off the glass of wine
I know we do some things to pass the time
Yeah but you’re mine
And I’ll just save the rest for the next one…
