Living life is special
but it can be that hard to do.
It takes a lot of breathing
and time keeps ticking too.
There isn't much that I need.
Can't even carry myself on my two feet.
I'm guessing this is something that I gotta do
even if my legs could break off soon.
If I can recall,
my life's always been for You
but if much of it is false,
my mind is true.
Love is something special
and I hear it a million times.
I think it's got conditions
cause I'm scared to love without.
There is so much for me to feel.
It's more than survival or sex appeal
and if I only love for what's ideal
then I'll never come close to something real.
I can recall,
my life's always been for You.
Much of it is false.
My mind's keeping what is true.
There isn't much for me to leave
but I've got so much things I wanna see.
I can recall,
my life's always been for You.

Speaking French

You remember how I tried to speak French?
How I couldn't ever get the words right
but you understand all the same?
Said, "You're learning so don't feel bad."
Would you understand me if I ain't?
You said you understand me all the same.
Oh Louise-Anne,
my little lady, she's back in this distant land.
Well, I'm just a man
who knows way too much about her motherland.
Oh Louise-Anne.
Don't know how to say a lot of things
so I express 'em through a million rings
but you understand me when I take 'em off all the same.
"Can you see the tension on my skin?" Yeah.
Oh Louise-Anne,
my little lady, she's back in this distant land.
Well, I'm just a man
who knows way too much about her motherland.
Oh Louise-Anne.

Hey honey,
work is hard when you're just twenty-three
but soon enough, you'll be coming back home to me
then you can rest, dear,
and if you ever need me I'll be here.
You can worry about tomorrow when it starts again.
Let down your hair and drop to bed.
Take a few minutes for yourself.
Hey honey,
you can rant the night away
or spend some time just focusing on your breath.
Whatever you do,
don't forget to take care of yourself
or maybe give a little smile for me.
Let down your hair and drop to bed.
Take a few minutes for yourself.
Close your eyes and don't think at all.
Spare a moment for your mind.
Now I hope you're good to go again.

Sunshine

I've got a mind that's just unkind.
It sees my thoughts, it speaks many lies.
When I'm decline, I've got no spine.
I start to breathe less just by design.
Oh how bad it hurts and nothing works
so find me a noose and I'll let it end.
What do I say to all my friends?
Do you think that they could comprehend?
Or maybe I'll keep trying to tell myself,
"You will be fine."
"You will be fine."
When there's no sunshine,
you gotta find one in your mind.
When there's no sunshine,
you gotta find one in your mind.
There's no name for me to exclaim.
It's a problem with no one to blame.
I'm not alone, I could pick up the phone.
It'd be better if I wasn't on my own.
Maybe it hurts but it might still work.
If it doesn't, I shouldn't let it win.
It's easy to say but it's not too late.
I'm gonna try to make it to 28.
Happy or sad, I'll just tell myself,
"You will be fine."
"You will be fine."
When there's no sunshine,
you gotta find one in your mind.
When there's no sunshine,
you gotta find one in your mind.
I breathe in then breathe out.
I breathe in then breathe out.
"You will be fine."
"You will be fine."
When there's no sunshine,
you gotta find one in your mind.
When there's no sunshine,
you gotta find one in your mind.
