I'm sick, I'm tired
I can't sleep 'cause I'm so wired
I don't know if I can take this
I don't know how to love you
Tick tock inside
Tossing, turning, I feel blind
Sun is up, the rain pours in
Another day of no end
Grab it, kick it, smash it
Love it, loathe it, yeah, yeah
Hold it, throw it, crave it
Searching for my solace
Tiptoe, bend, break
Cold night air, I start to shake
My eye's red, my tongue is dry
These long nights are never kind
I tried to find myself
A lonely cross to bear
And then tried to looking somewhere else
And I failed
I looked until my luck ran out
And the I saw your face
You picked me up and brushed me off
And said... hey
Behind the Song:“Solace is defined as ‘comfort in a time of trouble.’ This song was written about a specific time recently in my life that encompassed a lot of frustration and stress, and my relationship with God suffered as a result. I tried finding solace in myself, in my friends, in sleep, in food – things that took my mind off the discomfort I was going through. I found, though, that the only true solace is in the comforting arms of God, where you are never a stranger, always His, and never alone, ever.” - Tiffany Arbuckle (
