Marchin' On

For those days we felt like a mistake
Those times when love's what you hate
Somehow, we keep marchin' on
For those nights when I couldn't be there
I've made it harder to know that you know
That somehow, we'll keep movin' on

There's so many wars we fought
There's so many things we're not
But with what we have, I promise you that
We're marchin' on

For all of the plans we've made, there isn't a flag I'd wave
Don't care if we bend, I'd sink us to swim
We're marchin' on
For those doubts that swirl all around us
For those lives that tear at the seams
We know we're not what we've seen
For this dance we'll move with each other
There ain't no step other than one foot right in front of the other

We'll have the days we break
And we'll have the scars to prove it
We'll have the bonds that we save
But we'll have the heart not to lose it
We put one foot in front of the other
We move like we ain't go no other
We go when we go
We're marchin' on

Falling head over heels in love with OneRepublic's latest, Waking Up. Ryan Tedder has got to be my favourite songwriter in the whole world! Haha. Somehow the songs that he writes are just so beautiful. The words he chooses and the way they match each other with the music being the finishing touch. And the one thing that I absolutely love is how he incorporates strings into the music. Yay, strings! Haha. I wish I could write songs like that. Ah... =]
