In This Life Lyrics

I'll count the things that break you down
in this life
Hard against the concrete ground
in this life
and everything that gets you down
in this life
will finally fade away
Backed against a solid wall
in this life
with the same old options as before
in this life
No one here gets out alive
in this life
We'll finally get away
Take my hand and take me down
where faith replaced me
Take my arm and lead me home
Sheltered from the storm
The shadows that we've worn
Someday we'll laugh at how we've grown

Macrame a paper face
in this life
and leave it in its proper place
in this life
Face the night that stares you back
in this life
The stares will finally break
Hard to see your way
in this life
Night turns into day
in this life
for what we never said
in this life
Tomorrow starts today
