No Direction Lyrics

For there's no direction but up
For there's no direction but up

For there's no direction 'cause I've thrown away the key
I can't forgive my past transgressions and they'll never let me leave
It took clarity to notice, it took time for me to yield
It took pride to step aside, let common sense take the wheel

For there's no direction but up
For there's no direction but up

I view visions now, hear anеcdotes that were nеver really there
Put my faith in human nature and became a bloody square
For they'll soon be on my body and the heel of my soul
From the boot that crossed a thousand miles and never came back home

For there's no direction but up
For there's no direction but up

I started painting pictures, pick up pieces from their plight
It's all just your perceptions, face retribution with a smile
And the sea started to wonder and the earth, we broke its mould
Well, the trees let out a gasp and the wind, it blew so cold

For there's no direction but up
For there's no direction but up

And I taught them to be confident and I told them to be wild
I taught them to be gentle all whilst always being kind
And I taught them to be fierce, Lord knows I paid the price
I put fear before the fame and the pain, I set aside
