THEMES
Overcoming adversity
Recognising/acknowledging wins
A brighter tomorrow

VERSE ONE
I dug deep looking for a payout but it turned out
That I, really wanna find my way out of here
Squared off with my demons, stared down my vices
But I, really wanna know the layout in here
Holding onto secrets, somewhere in the sequence
Someone gonna find out, I don't wanna keep it
How's it gonna play out?
But I've already been here and know of this feeling
When it boils over and you begin healing
We're gonna have a day out

PRECHORUS
You'll have your moment in the sun my cousin
When your steps falter you must believe
My brother, my brother, my brother

CHORUS
Look at failures, look at our ailments
Oh oh, look at how far we've come
Look at our doubters, that includes ourselves
Oh oh, look at how far we've come

VERSE TWO
I stood with the fear, I took my hits through the year
I thought I knew what to say between the black white and grey
I'd tried to chill at the peak, tried to be cool at its trough
I turned it off, then turned it on
So I, searched for an answer
Dropped down an anchor
Put my both my hands up
Lights flashing amber
In the dark dancing
Carpark abandoned
Solitary man screaming at the Grand Canyon
I'm unreplenished running at a low percentage
Death of a salesman they say it's copacetic
Just give me time to thread it
Just give me time to get it
I know it's better where I'm headed
Look at failures, look at our ailments
Oh oh, look at how far we've come
Look at our doubters, that includes ourselves
Oh oh, look at how far we've come

CHORUS
Look at failures, look at our ailments
Oh oh, look at how far we've come
Look at our doubters, that includes ourselves
Oh oh, look at how far we've come

BRIDGE (Patience)
We've come so far
Sometimes we get it wrong
Sometimes we got it wrong
Left without an option
Carry on, just carry on
We've come so far
Sometimes we get it wrong
Sometimes we're not that strong
Left without an option
Carry on, just carry on

CHORUS
Look at failures, look at our ailments
Oh oh, look at how far we've come
Look at our doubters, that includes ourselves
Oh oh, look at how far we've come
