Hard Way

Who's gonna quench your thirst now
 Who can satiate
 Something you can't escape
 Who's gonna quench your thirst now
 Who can satiate
 Something you can't escape

 But I'm not OK and I cannot stay
 When the trees go bare and sky goes gray
 When the medicine's gone and the dog has strayed
 When the hurricane hits and there's no barricades
 In my bed I lay but I'm wide awake
 Staring into the darkness, pain won't fade
 And my mind won't rest, what may follow
 In this hollow cave
 Rise from the dust
 I will rise from my grave
 Rise from the grave

 Who am I to say
 I know nothing it seems
 Until it's way too late
 I'm learning this the hard way
 Who am I to say
 I know nothing it seems
 Until it's way too late
 I'm learning this the hard way
 Who am I to say
 I know nothing it seems
 Until it's way too late
 I'm learning this the hard way
 I'm learning this the hard way

 I'm descending down
 Crushed up in the ground
 Broken kingdoms come
 Crashing all around
 Palace made of glass
 Thought that it might last
 So afraid of change
 Don't do anything rash

 But now I need my sight
 More than ever before
 And yes you might be right
 That I opened up a door
 Everyone's right or wrong
 Everyone's got an opinion
 Well put it in a song
 And let me keep on livin'

 Who am I to say
 I know nothing it seems
 Until it's way too late
 I'm learning this the hard way
 Who am I to say
 I know nothing it seems
 Until it's way too late
 I'm learning this the hard way
 Who am I to say
 I know nothing it seems
 Until it's way too late
 I'm learning this the hard way
 Learning this the hard way

 You say it's your cage
 You're a slave and wouldn't have it any other way
 And besides you built it up that way
 Who's gonna make you happy
 When you're your own worst enemy
 Who's gonna make you happy
