about

Written on the piano one afternoon. I switched it over to guitar and it came alive. A song about feeling stuck, but with a bit of hope at the very end.

lyrics

Everybody’s go their own battles to fight
Their own demons to keep them up at night
While their lying in bed tucked in tight
Wondering why they turned left instead of right that day

Now they’re hung up on a crossroad
The sun in falling from the air
Today they’re hung up on a crossroad
And its more than they can bear
Its more than they can bear

Everybody’s got their own drugs to take
Their own solutions to keep them from breaking apart
When the storms stir and shake
Feels like you’re dreaming - but you’re wide awake

Today they’re hung up on a crossroad
The sun in falling from the air
Today they’re hung up on a crossroad
And its more than they can bear
Its more than they can bear

Today you’re hung up on a crossroad
And its more than you can bear
But still somehow you dare
To take a step out there
