Lock jaw and tongue tied Like prisoners in paradise We're half broke and terrified Longing to be heard Fixed to another fate We've lost out on better days But, somehow we'll come away From all that we've endured Yeah, our life is just a little bit farther down the line It's up on the horizon and it's been so hard to find I'm sorry though, we'll never know how far we fell behind But, our life is just a little bit farther down the line We put everything aside Eight years of sacrifice We missed all the warning signs They were right there all along There's still hope to make it right So, I'm staying in the fight Til we're back on the other side In the place where we belong Yeah, our life is just a little bit farther down the line Sometimes I still replay it all over in my mind It's hard to think that maybe we arrived ahead of time But, our life is just a little bit farther down the line Here in our darkest hour We'll search for light, search for light It feels like we're overpowered But we will survive, we will survive 'Cause, our life is just a little bit farther down the line I can touch it with my fingertips, hold it in my mind This broken ground won't slow us down We'll reach it right on time 'Cause, our life is just a little bit farther down the line Farther down the line
