A text about how we sometimes keep ourselves trapped in the past, how sometimes memories from the past, that once were painful, are being turned into a comfort zone. And also how many artists have a love hate relationship to the challenges we sometimes me


A beautiful struggle

A beautiful struggle in it's purest form
I hate It I love it I scream at it but it
keeps getting louder and I'm dimming out my lights
It feeds me with lyrics for yet another song
But the pain is strong and I know I have to let go
It' s addictive more than anything
But I gotta let it go
I gotta let it go

Through my history I' v e seen
heard and felt life at it' s best
and life at it' s worst
I have nourished my pain
Like a baby in my arms
Holding on to it like I was afraid of the light
Of my own light afraid to shine bright
After being told things that never were true
Falling into the trap they made
Staying there for years
Knowing that the only way to get out
Was through seeing myself with new eyes


So I did and I do yet I sometimes fall straight
back into the trap
But now I know better
What to keep my eyes on
Letting down my shoulders
after such a long time

Stop repeating the past in your head
stop feeding it with words from the past
You know better now
New ways of doing things
New wings to fly with
So c'mon and straighten up your back
and walk through life with pride

Tears might fall but you can rise above the pain
Fears will come and go but step up the game

Stop repeating the past in your head
stop feeding it with words from the past
You know better now

- You know better now
