Done with temporary emotions
Over fleeting fly by notions
Moving forward from the past
Craving a love that’s going to last
(Chorus)
Building up the energy
Aligning with the frequency
Frequency of the heart
Gone through a detox for my mind
Now looking for a different kind
An energy of feeling whole
The merging of two souls
(Chorus)
Building up the energy
Aligning with the frequency
Frequency of the heart
Away with old deceptions
Ready for deeper connections
Wanting more than just a fling
Desiring all true love can bring
(Chorus)
Building up the energy
Aligning with the frequency
Frequency of the heart
People will love you when you have it all
Standing so tall, having a ball
But who will be there to answer the call
Who won’t stall, when you take a fall
(Chorus)
In the tough times
You find out who really cares
Who will be there
And who you can spare
In the tough times
You find out which ones will stay
Who fades away
And who starts to stray
In the tough times
When you’re on top there are those who’ll partake
In all that you make, always on the uptake
All that it takes, is one small mistake
To open your eyes to who’s real & who’s fake
(Chorus)
In the tough times
You find out who really cares
Who will be there
And who you can spare
In the tough times
You find out which ones will stay
Who fades away
And who starts to stray
In the tough times
When life spirals down
Take a look at who’s around & who has gone to ground
(Chorus)
In the tough times
You find out who really cares
Who will be there
And who you you can spare
In the tough times
You find out which ones will stay
Who fades away
And who starts to stray
In the tough times
This wasn’t written in the script
Something that I couldn’t predict
It’s pushed me off my track
And I know I can’t turn back
My whole world has been flipped
(Chorus)
I’m entering new territory
I don’t know what lies in front of me
Even though I’m feeling scared
And I’m not mentally prepared
It’s all part of my destiny
This was never part of the plan
Things have got way out of hand
This can’t be happening to me
Is there something I can’t see
Please help me understand
(Chorus)
I’m entering new territory
I don’t know what lies in front of me
Even though I’m feeling scared
And I’m not mentally prepared
It’s all part of my destiny
It seemed to come out the blue
Or maybe deep down inside I knew
But there was no way to prepare
Why can life be so unfair
Oh god I wish it wasn’t true
(Chorus)
I’m entering new territory
I don’t know what lies in front of me
Even though I’m feeling scared
And I’m not mentally prepared
It’s all part of my destiny
Done with temporary emotions
Over fleeting fly by notions
Moving forward from the past
Craving a love that’s going to last

(Chorus)
Let’s go back to the beginning
Because I don’t like the end
I want to us to be lovers
I don’t want to be “just friends”
Whatever parts are broken
We can surely mend
Let’s go back to the beginning
Because I don’t like the end
When we got together
We were on a high
But over time things changed
And I can’t work out why
I always feel so helpless
When you start to cry
I’ve always preferred hello
Never been one for goodbye
(Chorus)
Let’s go back to the beginning
Because I don’t like the end
I want to us to be lovers
I don’t want to be “just friends”
Whatever parts are broken
We can surely mend
Let’s go back to the beginning
Because I don’t like the end
When we’re not together
My life falls apart
If we called it quits
It would truly break my heart
It never crossed my mind
That we would one day part
Let’s not cross the finish line
We can go back to the start
(Chorus)
Let’s go back to the beginning
Because I don’t like the end
I want to us to be lovers
I don’t want to be “just friends”
Whatever parts are broken
We can surely mend
Let’s go back to the beginning
Because I don’t like the end
When we got together
Thought you could be my forever
But I must have been insane
To believe you felt the same
You played a game
I tried to make it good
But you I never understood
I suffered so much pain
With nothing much to gain
You played a game
Bridge
When dealing with your kind, peace of mind is hard to find
You thought that I was blind, but I’m now inclined to feel resigned to the fact that you just played a game
Things weren’t working out
I was riddled with self doubt
It was me you tried to blame
But the fact that still remains
You played a game
Chorus
Surrender control
Let it flow, let it roll
Ignore the attacks
Just sit back & relax
Surrender control
Let it flow, it roll
Living for the now, forget the the future & the past
You’ll never get this moment back, time goes by so fast
Stop running round in circles, just stand there and stay still
Life will sort itself out, so grab a drink & chill
Chorus
Surrender control
Let it flow, let it roll
Ignore the attacks
Just sit back & relax
Surrender control
Let it flow, it roll
Take things as they come, live from day to day
All work makes a dull boy, allow yourself play
Take a deep breath in, let the stress subside
Everything will work out, when you go with the vibe
Chorus
Surrender control
Let it flow, let it roll
Ignore the attacks
Just sit back & relax
Surrender control
Let it flow, it roll
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
Keep persisting, stop resisting
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
Keep turning up, and don’t give up
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
Feeling like you’re on a road to nowhere
Ended up hitting a dead end
Got to the point where you no longer care
No more point in trying to pretend
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
Keep persisting, stop resisting
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
Keep turning up, and don’t give up
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
So many commitments to fulfil
Never seeming to come out on top
Feeling like you’re always walking uphill
But now's not the time to stop
You feel like your life’s in disarray
But tomorrow is another day
Tenacity will always pay
Everything will be ok
If you
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
Keep persisting, stop resisting
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
Keep turning up, and don’t give up
Keep on pushing, keep on pushing
Done with temporary emotions
Over fleeting fly by notions
Moving forward from the past
Craving a love that’s going to last
(Chorus)

Writing lyrics is a passion of mine. I am a writer not a musician so I am hoping to collaborate with someone who can create the perfect sound to accompany my words.The music genres that I have uploaded to my lyrics are only suggestions, I am more than happy for any genre to be employed. I'm really excited to see what sounds people can create to compliment my words.
