Pat Green - Barricades Lyrics
Close my eyesClose my eyesAnd ask myself a questionAnd ask myself a questionWhy is I do what I doWhy is I do what I doAm I looking for some happy definition?Am I looking for some happy definition?Of Life, and love and the corners of the truthLife, and love and the corners of the truthOr am I just some curious bystanderOr am I just some curious bystanderLooking at the world through a child's eyesLooking at the world through a child's eyesSunlight, always shining on my shouldersSunlight, always shining on my shoulderWhile the storm rages on deep inside, deep insideWhile the storm rages on deep insideAnd it seems so hardAnd it seems so hardTo keep it all togetherTo keep it all togetherWhen the walls are fallin' downWhen the walls are fallin' downOn every sideOn every sideI'll be damnedI'll be damnedIf I give up on it easyIf I give up on you easyI've worked too hardI've worked too hardTo get the barricades this highTo put the barricades asideNow This world is a stageThis world is a stageWe're meant to play onWe're meant to play onDirection from insideDirection from insideOn what to doOn what to doI know I should have all the answersI don't know how I could have all the answersDeep inside I haven't got a clue, not a clueWhen inside I don't have a clueAnd it seems so hardAnd it seems so hardTo keep it all togetherTo keep it all togetherWhen the walls are fallin' downWhen the walls are fallin' downOn every sideOn every sideI'll be damnedI'll be damnedIf I give up on it easyIf I give up on you easyI've worked too hardI've worked too hardTo get the barricades this highTo put the barricades asideTold myself that I would be okTell me somethingTold myself I'd be alrightAnd I'll be okayNo doubtTold myself I'd be alrightSomewhere low I knowNo doubtThat I've been lyinSo when do I knowI can't believe it took 30 yearsWhen I've been lyin'?To figure that shit outI can't believe it took 30 yearsTo figure that shit outAnd it seems so hardTo keep it all togetherAnd it seems so hardWhen the walls are fallin' downTo keep it all togetherOn every sideWhen the walls are fallin' downI'll be damnedOn every sideIf I give up on it easyI'll be damnedI've worked too hardIf I give up on you easyTo get the barricades this highI've worked too hardTo put the barricades aside
