Anyway you slice it, it's all city streets and highways
Am I going round in circles, or am I walking a straight line?
Because everything I'm trying is a watchword for survival
With the dirt under my fingernails, I'm reaching up again
I don't think it's all that serious
I'm not sure that it ever was
I'm leaving all the salt where I got it from
I cannot describe the difference when I feel alive
And you and I both know I can't decide how living looks for you
But I can see the fire burning holes in labored silence
You've been dreaming big in secret keep your head down don't give in
I don't think it's all that serious
I stop to think if it ever was
Cause everything we thought mysterious, we had labeled as such
Give me a hand to hold for every truth untold
I won't believe til I see it for myself
Give me a hand to hold for every truth untold I won't believe til I
Lay down all the defenses that keep me where I've always been
I'll wander around assign meaning to all that I've found
No one can hold your head to the ground any longer
When your time comes if you
Lay down all the defenses that keep you where you've always been
You'll carve out the sound that gives meaning to all that you've found
I'll give you a hand to hold for every truth untold
