Lyrics

Verse:
SOME EMOTIONS ARE ALLOWED
IN A BROKEN SYSTEM
SOMEONE ELSE DECIDES
APPROVES A DISPOSITION
IN EVERY ENDEAVOR
NO EXTREMES
DON'T GET TOO HAPPY
THERE'S NO TELLING WHAT IT MEANS

Chorus:
IF WE GET A MINUTE
WHEN SOMETHING GOOD IS IN IT
BENEATH A SUNNY SKY
DARKNESS SAYS GOODBYE
MEMORY DELETING
PAIN WE WON'T BE BE NEEDING
GIVING IT A TRY
HELL TAKES A HIT
HOPE WE'RE HOLDING OUT FOR
PEOPLE WHO CAN CHANGE
BAD HABITS LIKE A RAINSTORM
SWIRLING DOWN A DRAIN
WHAT COULD BE CORRUPTING
HAS GOODNESS INTERRUPTING
TO HAVE YOU IN MY LIFE
HELL TAKES A HIT

Verse:
THERE'S A HEAVEN WAY TOO FAR
TRUTH HAS TROUBLE FAKING
ALL THE REASONS WHY
A VOW I WON'T BE BREAKING
I MADE TO MYSELF
FEEL A SMILE
AS ARMS AROUND ME
I'M SHELTERED FOR A WHILE
