Hands In The Dirt

(album: 5am Paradise - 2022)

I've seen the world
I've seen the flowers
I've seen their wisdom
I've seen the fall
Sure of the moment
Sometimes lonesome in the winter
After all our wishful thinking
Got our heads stuck in the clouds
Just look at us now

Don't want to fight
Don't want to worry
Don't want to misconstrue the pain
How do you grasp every moment
Soak the wisdom of the rain
I feel the thunder and I'm wondering again
Just look at us now

With your hands in the dirt
You call up a friend
Swore you would change
But you're at it again
Remember falling asleep
With your hair in the wind
Back of your grandmother's car
She held your life in her hands
Somethings we don't understand

Some other town
Some other state
Some other way to right a wrong
Sure of myself don't need no one
But I was lying all along
We're diving under feeling younger than we are
Just look at us now

With your hands in the dirt
You call up a friend
Swore you would change
But you're at it again
Remember falling asleep
With your hair in the wind
Back of your grandmother's car
She held your life in her hands
Somethings we don't understand

With your hands in the dirt
You call up a friend
Swore you would change
But you're at it again
Remember falling asleep
With your hair in the wind
Back of your grandmother's car
She held your life in her hands
Somethings we don't understand

Well we're all getting hurt
We're all losing friends
You don't believe that I've changed
I'm just beginning again
Remember falling in deep
In that gold autumn wind
Back of your grandmother's car
You held my life in your hands

Somethings we don't understand
