Upside Of Anger... Anger and resentment...


What is the price we've paid?
What is the price we've paid for...
Anger and resentmentcan stop you in your tracks.
That's what I know now.
It needs nothing to burn but the air and the life
that it swallow sand smothers.
- What? What?- Okay.
Whoa!
It's real, though...
the fury,
even when it isn't.
It can change you...
turn you...
mold you and shape you into someone you're not.
The only upsideto anger, then...
is the person you become...
Good job.
hopefully someone
that wakes up one day
and realizes they're not afraid of its journey,
someone that knows
that the truth is, at best,
a partially told story.
That anger,
like growth,
comes in spurt sand fits
and in its wake,
leaves a new chance at acceptance
and the promise of calm.
Then again,what do I know?
I'm only a child.

How many roads
you've traveled



How many dreams
you've chased



Across sand
and sky and gravel



Looking for one
safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah



One safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah



Will you make
a smoother landing



When you break
your fall from grace



Into the arms
of understanding



Looking for one
safe place? Yeah



Yeah, yeah



One safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah



Whoa, life
is trial by fire



And love's
the sweetest taste



And I pray
it lifts us higher



To one safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah



One safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah



One safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah



How many roads
we've traveled



How many dreams
we've chased



Across sand and sky
and gravel



Looking for one
safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah



One safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah



One safe place, yeah



Yeah, yeah.
