Justin Bonitz - Mt. Garbage

Splintered and shaved,
I come with gifts to settle scores from before
And I show no hands
And I hold no grudges
For I know my darkness has come and gone

Enter the shoes of a worn down man
I won't ask you to walk a mile, just feel their weight
Can you take a step?
Can you leave a footprint?
Maybe it's time that you found some shoes of your own

I can see from the edge of the pine trees,
A field that's filled with light and hope
And all I ever loved's inside me
It's been there, I just never noticed it, before
At the base of the mountain,
I've been on top, and I've been below
And I can feel all the joy that surrounds me
It's been there, I just never noticed it, before

O' I've had my doubts!
And I've played my games
And the more I lost, I learned
And I've told my lies
And I've fed my demons
Cause' you can't see the good in things til' you know what's wrong

I can see from the edge of the pine trees,
A field that's filled with light and hope
And all I ever loved's inside me
It's been there, I just never noticed it, before
At the base of the mountain,
I've been on top, and I've been below
And I can feel all the joy that surrounds me
It's been there, I just never noticed it, before

All that you have,
And all that you've gained doesn't show who you really are
When you look at your life from the top of a mountain
You'll see that you're not as small as you thought

This is your time, and this is your choice
No one can make it for you
I could hold your hand, but you can't be scared forever
One day, you'll stand and let your soul shine through

And I'm counting on you to see from the edge of the pine trees,
A field that's filled with light and hope
And all you ever loved's inside you
It's been there, you just never noticed it, before
At the base of the mountain,
You'll be on top, and you'll be below
And you'll feel all the joy that surrounds you
It's been there, you just never noticed it, before
