I'd not really thought much about the lyrics to this song, apart from the chorus, until I was asked to post them by another BAmper.  And now in retrospect, their simplicity really appeals to me.

I've lived this life
inside this tiny mind
searching for
what I can never find
And it's been so hard
for me to get this far
don't mess it up
I might just take you to heart

And I've found my benchmark

Don't mess around
with this boys tiny heart
And it's been so hard
for me to get this far
don't muck it up
I might just take it to heart

And I've found my benchmark

Don't screw around
with this boys tiny soul
Don't mess around
You mightn't come out just whole

And I've found my benchmark

One the top 5 best produced, most inspired, most inspiring song on BandAMP for sure.

Kudos. Way to break the mold.

I guess this'll be my benchmark...

Cheers Zach

Yes! Isn't it just an excellent song? I've had it in my head all afternoon, after only reading the lyrics! lol!

But you know I still find 'Benchmark' a 'weird' word!
But you sing it so well and it is such a beautiful song, that makes it ok! 

It is an excellent song, no denying it. Yes, it is beautifully written, and it isn't overly complex, the simplicity appeals to me too.

Inspiring.

Very revolutionary uplifting style.

Agree to the above comments.

Cheers
