We all have a voice, we all have a say, To stand up proud or hide away We all want to love, we all want to live We sit in fear, in fear of shame Your story is there, it's there to be heard And now it's your time to write down your words Chorus: Wherever you go, whatever you do Be who you are, and make your mark Just say how you feel, and reach for the stars Yeah, you'll go far, and make your mark Be who you are, and make your mark Be the sun in the rain, the spring in the sand The one they'll look to to understand Go mast up the sails, and cross stormy seas Trust in your heart, learn to believe CHORUS Your story is there, it's there to be heard And now it's your time to write down your words CHORUS

Rain 05:17
I’m sitting here counting the time Since I was yours and you were mine It only seems like yesterday That we were sparks in a flame We’d walk each day hand in hand Carving our names in the sand But now you’ve left me in the waves Our memories are washing away There’s not a cloud left in sight as my day turns to night CHORUS: I never knew that love might never last I never knew you’d leave me in the past I never knew that I could feel this pain And one by one my tears fall like rain I never knew the fire could ever die Not when the candle seemed to burn so bright I never knew that I could feel this pain And one by one my tears fall like rain One by one my tears fall like rain Dreaming of the day you’d say my name In the halls where love comes to stay The door is open and you are gone And I am left to try to move on CHORUS There’s not a cloud left in sight as my day fades to night But now you’ve left me in the waves Our memories wash away I never knew that love might never last I never knew you’d leave me in the past I never knew that I could feel this pain And one by one my tears fall like rain CHORUS

Raise It Up 03:58
You’ve punched your card and done 9 to 5 Now come inside and leave your world behind You’ll be up on the tables, dancing from the ceiling And by the morning, you’ll be lucky if you’re breathing Leave your broken heart on the porch and if it comes a-knockin’, keep it out the door Some Jim, some Jack, Your buddies got your back We’ll be going ‘till the crack of dawn Chorus: We’re gonna start a fire they’ll see from heaven! So get a spark, Light it up! Light it up, now! We’re gonna make the night last forever! So grab a glass, Raise it up! Raise it up, now! Somebody gave you lip, we just don’t care Just think of them and put your finger in the air Jump out the front, belt your favourite tune We’ll be sure to sing along with you! Chorus x2 Nobody is alone when we start the fire and blow a hole in the sky And I don’t know what we’ll get up to But I know we’ll have a ball with you Chorus x2

More To Us 04:39
How can you laugh when you just want to cry? How can you live when you just want to die? How can you heal when you hurt deep inside? How can you do when you can't even try? How can you wake when you can't even sleep? How can you swim when you're in way too deep? How can you climb when you can't even reach? How can you stand when you've lost your feet? There's more to us than it seems Everyday living is another bad dream There's more to us than you see So lend us your heart when we bleed How can you rise when you don't have the will? How can you move when all time stands still? How can you begin when you want it to end? How can you talk when you think you have no friends? CHORUS How can you get up without a helping hand? How can you smile when noone understands? CHORUS x2

Walk Tall 03:04
Walk tall Through the ashes, through the fire Walk tall To achieve your desires As time goes by Never say die Chorus: Walk Tall Don't feel small You can take it all, roll the dice Make your call, Walk Tall Through the pain, and the agony Walk Tall To learn how to believe That when you cry Know you can fly CHORUS Walk tall CHORUS

about

"Make Your Mark" is the latest release by Australian singer/songwriter Ash Archer - recorded in late 2019 and delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the EP captures one of the most turbulent times in Ash's life - exploring heartbreak in lead single "Rain", mental illness and the loss of a friend to suicide in "More To Us" and his eventual recovery and newfound sense of purpose in the title track "Make Your Mark", "Raise It Up" and "Walk Tall".

Produced by Lewis Crichton and with colleague Jon Powers on lead guitar duty, "Make Your Mark" is Ash's most personal and diverse release to date.
