The Rule of Life |
I am just a man |
And as broken as I am |
I have so many questions |
About the suffering in this land |
Why do people fall |
Get no answer when they call? |
Oh the loneliness of time |
Has made the strongest of us cry |
So I packed my bags |
Packed up everything I had |
And I fell in with the wrong crowd |
Just to try at my own hand |
The first cut stung my eyes |
And then a hundred passed me by |
And I found that no man |
Can run away from his own lies |
Oh I’ve been lucky when it’s good |
And it hurt when things were bad |
But the rule of life is change |
Through the sunshine and the rain |
Oh my heart was open wide |
Yet so many dreams have died |
But I moved on just the same |
Through the joy and through the pain |
I moved on |
And I had my choice of girls |
And I chased after the my goals |
But the trickery of youth is thinking |
Life will never slow |
My eyes saw the good |
Broken trodden down with shoulds |
As the wicked rule the land |
And bless their own hateful hands |
Oh I’ve been lucky when it’s good |
And it hurt when things were bad |
But the rule of life is change |
Through the sunshine and the rain |
Oh my heart was open wide |
Yet so many dreams have died |
But I moved on just the same |
Through the joy and through the pain |
I moved on |
I moved on |
I moved on |
I moved on |
I moved on |
I moved on |
I moved on |
Oh I’ve been lucky when it’s good |
And it hurt when things were bad |
But the rule of life is change |
Through the sunshine and the rain |
