We had it all, let it fall, the favor and the fortune With another craving for distortion By the day we find a way Birds of a feather, they fly together And I see 'em soaring From this boring cage, hmm
But to break free has only been a dream It's taking away all of my energy I need a light to see so I can finally breathe I gotta find the key
I've been searching for a peace of mind Pride and certainty in truth I find The soul is cold when the river's empty So tell me These empty bones are dead inside Only hope keeps us alive The road is old and it's never ending These empty bones are dead inside Only hope keeps us alive But the soul is gold when the heart is healthy
See, all this drinking got me thirsty I feel me breaking, I can't escape it I can't take the shame of mercy, hmm But I'll follow what I'm searchin' 'Cause maybe it's suitable for moving on And working through the hurting
But to break free has only been a dream It's taking away all of my energy I need a light to see so I can finally find the key
I've been searching for a peace of mind (I've been searching) Pride and certainty in truth I find (Soul is cold) The soul is cold when the river's empty So tell me (Tell me) These empty bones are dead inside Only hope keeps us alive The road is old and it's never ending These empty bones are dead inside Only hope keeps us alive But the soul is gold when the heart is healthy
She paid her dues, she played those broken blues Etta James, and her name came from the very same truth Skip the youth, now it's things to do Now it's cleaning up after you And that's the music she sings to (It's hallelujah) You know better than to walk in with all the sin you're holding in They said to leave it at the door, they said pain no more She said, "But I got somethin' I'm fighting for What you mean pain no more?" Play the chord Melodies playing her like chess She's taking deep breaths She takes a beating to the chest And there's no finessing this stress Demons try to tell her what's next She says, "I just want you to be blessed, blessed"Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
