A high energy song with a slight hint of country rock, about never giving up because you never know what’s around the next corner.
The parts I added to this song actually came together very quickly for me. I had a clear idea about the strings and the drums right from the beginning. There were a few adjustments along the way but I was mostly able to take what I heard in my head and directly record it. I didn’t need to spend much time experimenting with this one.
When I thought all was lost
And I’d never smile again
I found a new beginning
Waiting near the end
When I thought all was gone
And hope fled from my grasp
I found a shiny future
Lurking in the past
What I thought was an end
Turned out to be a middle
And what I thought was a brick wall
Turned out to be a tunnel
(chorus)
What I thought was an injustice
Turned out to be a color
A color of the sky
A color of the sky
When I lost all my faith
And just threw it all away
I found a second chance
To live another day
And when I thought I was doomed
And cursed my life and luck
I found my soul was yet to soar
A diamond in the rough
What I thought was an end
Turned out to be a middle
What I thought was a brick wall
Turned out to be a tunnel
(chorus) x 2
