Live It Up

[Verse 1: Ekoh]

I felt it all fall away in the blink of an eye

I threw my blood from my veins to vanilla sky

Why do I even try, what's the use? I never know

The time when I should let it go away to let the feeling show

You gotta grow, or die stagnant sitting in place

You gotta move, or forever rot inside of this space

Case closed so take notes and make those

Promises we always plan to keep, but do we really know?

These hands were made to write but never figure out the purpose

Until I do these hands will still remain shaky and nervous

And I hope that you get it, 'cause I've been co-pathetic

For chasin' dreams because you're afraid I'll actually get it

Push it back until I break and bend

I'm only hopin' on some inspiration from a host of hopeless friends

So you can quit and never give a fuck

Or you can live it up with one choice to go and never give it up

[Chorus: Brittany Flickinger]

Thing they say:

"It's not too late!"

"I'll reach the stars!"

"Take me away!"

And they'll say

Come save me

The music plays

I close my eyes and fade away

And they'll say

I'm gonna get change

[Verse 2: Ekoh]

She put a heart tattoo in the middle of her chest

And yes, I guess this is symbolism at it's very best

For how she saw the pain and then she saw the rain

But regardless of the fact that heart will still remain

Write it down with the names of all the ones we miss

She's got her pockets and her head filles up with emptiness

She's got a scar that she will keep until she's gone

To remind her of the rights that she figured out were really wrong

We put it in a song in hopes that the message will carry

So push and pull but the struggle that I live will not tear me

The unknown is scary hangin' on a moment barely

Even though you hate the fight the pain in only momentary

Pick up the pieces with your soul and you can hit the road

A poker face on this chase but I will never fold

So you can quit and always wonder what

Or you can live it up with one choice to go and never give it up

[Chorus: Brittany Flickinger]

Thing they say:

"It's not too late!"

"I'll reach the stars!"

"Take me away!"

And they'll say

Come save me

The music plays

I close my eyes and fade away

And they'll say

I'm gonna get change

[Verse 3: Ekoh]

I feel the freedom in the music passion of the sound

I'm reaching for the stars with my feet on the ground

Because it's never too late to change the game

We can dance in the rain the clouds will cover up the pain

Sometimes it's hard to see positive in the dead of night

That's why we have to put our hearts into the songs we write

Gotta take the bumps and learn from the mistakes

And who the fuck says that you gotta stop dreaming when you're awake?

[Chorus: Brittany Flickinger]

Thing they say:

"It's not too late!"

"I'll reach the stars!"

"Take me away!"

And they'll say

Come save me

The music plays

I close my eyes and fade away

And they'll say

I'm gonna get change

I'm gonna get change

[Outro: Brittany Flickinger]

Game change

Oh won't you save me?
