about

We are born into this world. We open our eyes and soak in the miraculous nature, the light, the sounds, the emotions. We develop dreams and ambitions and step forward into the unknown dancing. Society hits you like mad man driving a semi-truck... and the colors and wonder fade to black and white...
This song is for those who hold so tightly to there dreams that the inspiration ripples from their eyes, trembles in their voice and finds it's calm in knowing that the dreamy is always with them. This beauty give us the strength when all that is left is survival. We give to you.. Only Survival.

lyrics

Lyrics:
Commit ourselves to dance
Pollute our bodies like the ocean
Nothing matters oh no, when it's
Only Survival
Started out with the answer
Without looking at the question
Nothing matters oh no
Cause it's, Only Survival
My dreams will cut you down
Like you do the trees
My dreams will cut you down
Like you do the trees
What I used to be
I still have inside of me
And I just can't walk away
Cause there's love
Beating there
I asked the spirit at the river
What it means to be a lover
She said, "Don't go messin' with peoples hearts
cause there's love.. beating there."
My dreams will cut you down
Like you do the trees
My dreams will cut you down
Like you do the trees
Like you do the trees
