If It Takes a Lifetime |
I’ve been working here, Monday, it’ll be a year |
And I can’t recall a day when I didn’t wanna disappear |
But I keep on showing up, hell-bent on growing up |
If it takes a lifetime |
I’m learning how to be alone, fall asleep with the TV on |
And I fight the urge to live inside my telephone |
I keep my spirits high, find happiness by and by |
If it takes a lifetime |
I got too far from my raising, I forgot where I come from |
And the line between right and wrong was so fine |
Well I thought the highway loved me |
But she beat me like a drum |
My day will come, if it takes a lifetime |
I don’t keep liquor here, never cared for wine or beer |
And working for the county keeps me pissin' clear |
The nights are dry as dust, but I’m letting my eyes adjust |
If it takes a lifetime |
I got too far from my raising, I forgot where I come from |
And the line between right and wrong was so fine |
Well I thought the highway loved me |
But she beat me like a drum |
My day will come, if it takes a lifetime |
Man is the product of all the people that he ever loved |
And it don’t make a difference how it ended up |
If I loved you once my friend, oh, I can do it all again |
If it takes a lifetime |
We got too far from our raising and we fought 'til we went numb |
You were running up a mountain in your own mind |
And I thought that I was running to what I was running from |
Oh, our day will come, if it takes a lifetime |
Our day will come, if it takes a lifetime |
