[Verse 1] A kiss for the miles to drive A prayer for when it rains One shot of perspective A couple more to kill the pain When all the best metaphors Are hitting too close to home When all the best metaphors Are bleeding from your bones [Verse 2] Im gonna die a failure But to happiness awake You can go to sleep in hell And wake up at heavens gate Think of all that we missed today That lay right before our eyes Think of all that fades away In the hardpressed compromise [Chorus] And this is dangerous terrain Were attempting to traverse And its a crying shame But it could be a lot worse [Verse 3] So you proceed with caution Though youre mumbling in the dark And that one shot of perspective Has finally hit your heart [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Faith, shes a whistling train Running hard in the dark And hope is like a thing untamed Gonna lay to waste your heart Loves a little bit of God There for all to know Loves the everlasting arms That never do let go [Chorus] And this is dangerous terrain Were attempting to traverse And its a crying shame But it could be a lot worse And its a crying shame But it could be a lot worse [Outro] A lot worse Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah A lot worse Mmhmmhmmhmm
