“Solace” has been recorded during the ODR sessions, but it didn’t make the record. The song “Solace” was a possible band name they were seriously considering before deciding on Alter Bridge. The lead guitarist Mark Tremonti said that in the guitar one interview from the October 2004 issue, Myles was...
[Verse 1]
When we drift with the tide
Are we gone forever?
And when will we find ourselves?
I ask my soul, but it doesn't know
All those days, endless nights
Will we live forever?
Live with doubt in ourselves
I ask my soul, I already know
[Chorus]
I pray my days
Will bring me solace and I'll have faith
I'll find a way
To a better tomorrow, a better today
[Verse 2]
When we fall, gain new wounds
Will we bleed forever?
When we heal, will our scars
Reveal in ourselves all that's been done?
And who are we to believe
We hurt for nothing?
And will we rise in the end?
I ask my soul, I already know
[Chorus]
I pray my days
Will bring me solace and I'll have faith
I'll find a way
To a better tomorrow, a better today
[Bridge]
I'm gonna fight a revolution
On my own
I'm gonna look 'em in the eye
On my own
I'm gonna reach inside
[Chorus/Outro]
My faith, it grows
No need to question, I already know
I found a way
To a better tomorrow, we'll live it today
I pray my days
Will bring me solace and I'll have faith
I'll find a way
To a better tomorrow, we'll live it today
