STRIDE TO HEAVEN



Lovely lights gleaming inside my heart
Bitter minds whistling past through my cars
Sour smiles forcing me to fake all my scars
Bickering lies making me sweat from toe to ears

But you say we can do it together
Make this world a little better
Turn things from me to us
And only then we can vanish the lust

Shining eyes and
Sweeter smiles
Pretty minds and
Healthy lives
We are going to live it wild
You say let's stride again
This time let's stride to heaven

Giving my soul some light
Ringing all the heartbells right
Swindling past all the heavy tides
Let's stride to heaven

Sizzling blood flowing inside my body
Tingling sights passing through both of my eyes
Lustful eyes make me wince a little
Fickle minds make me wonder what is right

But you say we don't have to lie
Motives are clear just think a little wide
So sleep and dream if you get scared
I'll sing you a lullaby

Bigger dreams and
Smaller prides
Richer minds and
Simple lives
That's only what can help us to shine
You say let's stride again
This time let's stride to heaven

Giving my soul some light
Ringing all the heartbells right
Swindling past all the heavy tides
Let's stride to heaven

Hold me
Hit me
Test me
I will never fall down
Bribe me
Tie me
Shush me
I will never let my voice breakdown

I must stand on my feet
Love life like life but never cheat
It's spring no more falling leaves
Every song has it's own original beats
So rise up and
Light up the path in front of you
Time to see a better you

You say let's stride again
This time let's stride to heaven

Let's make this earth better
Turn it to sweetest place and
Let's stride to make it a heaven.....
