Vines Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every day is another chance to fill
All the graves that I've been digging
The hardest part about life is you're living
The past and the present
The act of forgiving yourself for everything you did
But oh back then, you were just a kid
Stop blaming yourself for everything

[Chorus]
When your life is a building that you made with mistakes
You've got to start from the top or be crushed by the weight
Of the brick and the mortar that you founded on faith
If your foundation is cracked then your facade is a waste

[Verse 2]
And in the deepest part of your dark mind
I know there's things that you wish you could hide
But they'll come out in other ways
Insecurity's, addiction's, pain
An ode to unhappiness, you lie to yourself every day
That's how you cover up your pain
I know all of this because I used to live that way

[Chorus]
[Bridge]
So don't spend so much of your life
Wasting water on withering vines
When you are rotting on the inside
And there's a desert in your mind


[Chorus]

[Outro]
All the fears you're hiding in that place
Is a waste now
Is a waste now
Is a waste now

Genius Annotation

The second new song from Senses Fail’s compilation album Follow Your Bliss: The Best of Senses Fail.

This song was my first attempt at really putting pen to paper on my growth. I had to forgive myself for a lot of them things I wrongfully put blame on myself for, within my past relationships as well as my family. To me I feel that a positive message goes further than a negative one and I hope I accomplished that with this song.“ – vocalist Buddy Nielsen
