lyrics

It was on those days
the rain taught us lessons.
Sky came crashing.
The rain wouldn’t stop.

It was on those days
silence rang alarms.
And we were all alone.
We were all alone.

If these words ring true they’re yours and mine.
Live in them. Grow them in your heart.
Seeds we’ve always shared.

Fuck independence.
Let’s build a heart together instead.
If I reach out to you,
will you reach back?
We’ve got each other.
I’m here for you.

We looked to find a home.
We looked to find the others.
We looked to find a family of us
who shared hearts and minds.

This sound is glue.
This word is bond.
This day is us.
This night is now.
Your eyes are stars.
My eyes caught yours.

We came to learn to work our hands, fueling them with burning blood and love.

You are welcome here. This is your home.
You are welcome here. Let’s build our hearts together.
We belong here. This is home.
We belong here. This is us.

Fill it with friends; reach for my hand
Fill it with love; reach for their hearts.
Fill it with filling other’s hearts.

Let’s not live an empty life.
Fill it up with one another.
Fill it up with all of us.
Fill this space with all of us.
And you reach out.
Reconnect to an I that’s us.
And I reach out.

Lose the fear. Reach out.
Lose the fear. Open your arms. Let them in.
Be the cove. Be the shelter of this storm
that’s taught us the cruelty of the ocean.

————————————
We never felt completely connected, or we were slowly pushed out; we rejected aspects of culture and systems; we were outcasted by others or by personal choice, a refusal to take part. But at some point, desperate and hoping for a kinder, more caring, more fitting alternative to what we’d been handed, we stumbled upon this refuge called punk, called hardcore. It felt like home and it became our school, our church, our family. This weird, fucked up, organic community/culture that we all help shape and build and sustain despite the forces and influences that can affect it negatively. Let’s keep doing the work. Make sure this place keeps being a haven to those who need it.
