about

Sometimes the ability to help others comes much more naturally than the ability to help one's self. Fortunately, the former often leads to the latter, however indirectly.

lyrics

Play the game
For your life
This house of cards
Will fall if you keep on

Giving voice
Paying mind
To everything
Everything you can’t control

Tired eyes
Empty head
I steel myself
I steel myself away

Civil mind
Broken heart
I steel myself
I steel myself away

For those near to me
By necessity
Or by the random chance
That has brought us to this scene

I will strive to be
Reliably
More than random chance
Someone in whom you can believe

Hit the hay
For your friends
You need to rest
Before you carry on

Lending ears
Playing god
To anything
Anything you can control

Tired eyes
Empty head
I steel myself
I steel myself away

Civil mind
Broken heart
I steel myself
I steel myself away

For those near to me
By necessity
Or by the random chance
That has brought us to this scene

I will strive to be
Reliably
More than random chance
Someone in whom you can believe
