    LYRICS
    Abandoned and lamenting
    The wasted days were spent running from ourselves
    Aimlessly ramblin’ but hey man, at least we’ve got our health
    Oh, but it ain’t enough just to be alive
    We’ve gotta lean into the love a little
    before we die.
    So, tell me what you need
    You bring me to my knees
    And I’m tired of running
    I’m tired of moving life around
    How do we deal with this?
    Treat each day as the gift it is
    I don’t wanna be running
    Until I’m underground
    Let’s just forget the unforgiving presence of death
    And live wild and free
    Godless or not -
    You can’t let the fear control your body
    Like a great Canadian darkness
    I will cover you
    Nothing will harm us
    I will protect you
    So tell me what you need
    You bring me to my knees
    And I’m tired of running
    Tired of moving life around
    How do we deal with this?
    Treat each day as the gift it is
    I don’t wanna keep running
    Until I’m underground

    I’ve had the melodies from this song stuck in my head from the moment I first listened to it. Literally plays over and over, day and night. His music is my drug.

    Hey, there it is. I hope Dallas puts out acoustic versions of all his albums following Bring Me Your Love one day. It seems part of his heart will always lie in solo performances like this. I think it's part of why everyone likes Guide Me Back Home so much

    This man can do no wrong! I had the pleasure of being able to attend his show in Sydney last week (literally the best night I have had in yonks!, I sang my little heart out). Dallas made a comment about how it was clear when people cheer about an old song coming out, that they arent a fan of the newer stuff (this was obviously a joke.. ahaha) but I just wanted to say I am an absolute lover of City & Colours old stuff, but at the moment, Meant to be and Underground are two of my favourite songs! We are all so grateful you continue to put out music, it is ALWAYS amazing

    It really struck a cord with me (pun not intended)
    “We should lean into the love before we die”
    I’ve been a bit obsessed with the idea of death since my mother passed away 2 years ago. I’m 21 and still fighting for my path through life’s hardships and pains. Pain inside me and pain from what/who I love.
    I work with cancer patients almost everyday, people scared of dying and I keep being reminded how fickle life is.
    It’s so fragile but so beautiful all the same and we are all paralyzed to see it.
    I think it’s a beautiful song.

    Life is truly so short and so full of suffering, slaves to jobs and money til we die and never enough time to form true friendships or connections with our community, enjoy the little things, indulge our hobbies and build skills etc. So depressing. Dallas has a very deep understanding of the world and human suffering.

    Dallas looks... different, older. This is not meant as a slight; just an indication of his maturation - someone much more comfortable in his skin, compared to a decade ago. This is a man one would want to have a beer with and talk about the state of life and the world we live in.
