about

I wrote this song on one of the hardest nights of my life, when I felt like my faith had failed me. It's about keeping hope in the darkest hour, and never giving up on each other.

lyrics

"Starry Eyed" lyrics

I don’t even know where to begin
But I’m feeling over my head
Losing sight of what I believe
The weight is taking its toll on me

So how do I look you in the eyes
And tell you I love you?
With everything shattered on the ground
Searching for the truth

We were holding the lines
Till we fell on hard times
I can still see the stars in the sky
I think that we’re alright
Yeah, we lost control
But we still got hope
I can still see the stars in your eyes
I think that we’re alright
Yeah, I think that we’re alright

Everything that I thought I knew
Came crashing down because of you
But I’m happy you made a mess
Shook me awake from my ignorance

We were holding the lines
Till we fell on hard times
I can still see the stars in the sky
I think that we’re alright
Yeah, we lost control
But we still got hope
I can still see the stars in your eyes
I think that we’re alright
Yeah, I think that we’re alright
Yeah, I think that we’re alright

Your secrets are heavy
But I’ll hold ‘em till you don’t need ‘em anymore
Your secrets are heavy
But I’ll hold ‘em till you don’t need ‘em anymore
Your secrets are heavy
But I’ll hold ‘em till you don’t need ‘em anymore
Your secrets are heavy
But I’ll hold ‘em till you don’t need ‘em

Holding the lines
Even in hard times
I can still see the stars in the sky
I think that we’re alright
Yeah, we lost control
But we still got hope
I can still see the stars in your eyes
I think that we’re alright
Yeah, I think that we’re alright
Yeah, I think that we’re alright
Yeah, I think that we’re alright
