Unruly Child - The Hard Way Lyrics




THE HARD WAY
Guy Allison, Bruce Gowdy, Betsy Summers
EarthWalk Music, Making Betts Music

There is no middle ground, or in between
Forgiveness wants the heart to always come clean
So I push myself to bury the sword once again
But the blade's still sharp and that's just getting old...

When all the while,
You keep fanning flames of fires that you lit
I still fight to put them out
Even though you just won't quit

This is something that I've learned in life so far
This is something that I've learned in life so far
This is something that I've learned, the hard way

The past stills crawls inside to raise its ugly head
These memories prowl around just like the walking dead
So I cast my wheel of fortune high into the sky
Then I place my bets, and learn to do and not to try

When all the while,
You keep fanning flames of fires that you lit
I still fight to put them out
Even though you just won't quit

This is something that I've learned in life so far
This is something that I've learned in life so far
This is something that I've learned, the hard way

I burn your words like Chinese lanterns to the sky
Oh they fly, oh they fly
Their fading ember glow dies out into the night
Oh without a fight
Without a fight

When all the while,
You keep fanning flames of fires that you lit
I still fight to put them out
Even though you just won't quit

This is something that I've learned in life so far
This is something that I've learned in life so far
This is something that I've learned, the hard way


THE HARDER THEY WILL FALL
Guy Allison, Bruce Gowdy
EarthWalk Music, Making Betts Music

In a world where giants crowd the sun
There seems to be no more light left for the little ones
Here on the forest floor
Digging in the dirt

We sat and cheered as they marched by
We let these kings and tyrants grow so high
Now we watch as they fall from grace
Digging in the dirt

When the rains fall
On those shallow roots
Feel the weight of everything they've done

The bigger they are now
The harder they will fall
The more they deserve it
The harder they will fall

See the bones dance from the graveyard
To the open air
See the past rise like a crucifix
Without a prayer
And when the story breaks
We're all digging in the dirt

When the rains fall
On those shallow roots
Feel the weight of everything they've done

The bigger they are now
The harder they will fall
The more they deserve it
The harder they will fall

You oughta know by now
There's always a price to pay
And everyone is the same...

The bigger they are now
The harder they will fall
The more they deserve it
The harder they will fall
