Words are powerful. Words can make or break. This is a song to encourage people to think before they speak.

This is about confidence. The story behind the song is about growing up with a broken smile, literally. My front teeth were broken and I had no confidence in myself. No money and no way to get them fixed. I grew up being constantly picked on and bullied about my teeth. No girls would talk to a short kid with no front teeth. Finally as a grown adult, I was able to make the appointment to get them fixed and I would be walking out with a whole new smile. Although the song is literally about a smile being fixed, it's also about gaining the confidence in yourself to just smile at all the hate and negativity that surround you on a daily basis.

A toxic love, one sided and poisonous.

A song about a long distance relationship, and how it makes feelings stronger.

The song is a representation of what it feels like to be with that certain someone that you can never have enough time with. That someone that means more to you than anyone or anything in your life and you have no way of conveying that feeling to them other than through a song. Life is short and when you find that someone that you want to spend your life with, the time is never enough.
