lyrics

Pretty sure it was a Friday morning
When all the wheels stopped spinning round
It barely sounded like a whisper
When I felt the whole thing come crashing down
And I’ve been in a lot games before
But never left with no more cards to play
It’s a hard lesson in this life when you learn
Things aren’t gonna go your way

The road back to home was slow, lord it was long
When I opened up the door
the cupboards were bare and I was all alone
And the weight of the silence
Felt heavy enough to crush my bones
Lockdown is a lonely place
When you ain’t got no hand to hold

Chorus
********************************
The stakes are high
The payouts low
where this train’s gonna stop
Hell, nobody know
So count your blessings
on your fingers and toes
And if you got folks
That you love
Make sure you hold them close
**********************************

I’ve been wrestling with my demons
While I watch the world writhe in pain
And the way that we’ve been treating
Each other, you think we’d all gone insane
And I thank my lucky stars
I still have a roof to keep out the rain
And I hope with all my heart
You’re able to say the same


I’ve witnessed acts of kindness
That brought light of a new dawn
Open hearts and strong backs
Digging at the root of the problem
And if we all do the same
Well, we might just solve them
Think about someone else’s shoes
And how it feels to walk em

-chorus-
