I got a million questions, like: Why the hell can't heaven be on Earth? Why the good folks have to hurt? Why's life a lesson? Why does every single blessing have a curse? Why does love take so much work? And why does mom and daddy's hair have to turn grey I guess everyone's got reasons why their shoulders carry weight There's been a few days I've 'bout folded But I found one more card to play Been a few days I was hopeless And I'd be damned if I threw in this Guess that's life and I remind myself to spend more time Talkin' to the dealer than worryin' about the hands I'm dealt It sure feels like life would be better If parts like mine would never wind up broke It ain't how many stories go I won't lie, I'm tired of walkin' through this fire and brimestone stone world we all call home But I'm, I'm still sittin' at the table makin' bets Bettin' that some better times are comin' up ahead, yeah There's been a few days I've 'bout folded But I found one more card to play Been a few days I was hopeless And I'd be damned if I threw in this Guess that's life and I remind myself to spend more time Talkin' to the dealer than worryin' about the hands I'm dealt The hands I'm dealt And I used to think you're supposed to pray 'Cause it was somethin' that God needs But now I see it's less for him and really more for me There's been a few days I've 'bout folded But I found one more card to play Been a few days I was hopeless And I'd be damned if I threw in this I guess that's life and I remind myself to spend more time Talkin' to the dealer than worryin' about the hands I'm dealt The hands I'm dealt
