fences

Andy Grammer

Down to earth in the dirt
Used em up so I m out of words
Barely breathing
Still alive as samurais cut me up and then down the sides
Stop the bleeding

Did I say, say I know anything? Cause I don t
But I will pay, pay double just to get what I want

I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
I keep swinging
Makes no sense, but I go again
Cause I, I might just be dumb enough
to keep on trying til I die
And I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah

Steady odds in the eyes, out of luck, but I roll the dice
Still believing
Keep the faith, no time to pray, warming up for a Hail Mary
Got that feeling

Did I say, say I know anything? Cause I don t
Yeah, but playing safe, safe isn t really playing at all
At all

I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
I keep swinging
Makes no sense, but I go again
Cause I, I might be just dumb enough
to keep on trying til I die
And I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences

And it s hard when the fire keeps crawling up your sleeves
And it s harder than you ever thought that it could ever be
And a light in the dark is all you wanna see, you wanna see
And it s hard when the fire keeps crawling up your sleeves
And it s harder than you ever thought that it could ever be
And a light in the dark is all you wanna see
all you wanna see

I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
I keep swinging
Makes no sense, but I go again
Cause I, I might be just dumb enough
to keep on trying til I die
And I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences, ah
I keep swinging
Makes no sense, but I go again
Cause I, I might be just dumb enough
to keep on trying til I die
And I keep swinging for the fences, ah, for the fences
