about

A song about pushing through day-to-day life in spite of anxiety.

lyrics

Some folks like to run
Some folks like to hide
When the world comes crashing down
They're not practiced in the kind
But folks like us just soldier on
'Cause it happens all the time
When there's a constant misfire in the mind

We keep pushing through
'Cause that's what we're used to
Seeing red and feeling blue
Yeah, that's life
It's what we do

We're the kings of the broken
We're the kings of the broken

Sometimes things go wrong
Sometimes they go right
And every day is filled with things
That pinball side-to-side
Most times nothing's nearly bad
As it seems at the time
So breathe deep and let that feeling pass you by

We keep pushing through
'Cause that's what we're used to
Seeing red and feeling blue
Hey, that's life
It's what we do

We're the kings of the broken
We're the kings of the broken

When the struggle it won't go away
Remember it's not every day
It's a wave
It ebbs and flows
It'll come
But then it goes
For the kings of the broken
We're the kings of the broken

Those days when you're down
At the bottom of the hole
Feeling it may never end
Just know you're not alone
Every day remind yourself
That you are in control
Just close your eyes and you will see the glow
Of the kings of the broken

Keep on pushing through
Do what you need to
When you're seeing red and feeling blue
Hey, that's life
It's what we do

We're the kings of the broken
We're the kings of the broken
We're the kings of the broken
We're the kings of the broken
