The Lucky Ones-Patrick Park

[00:19.688]Each day the light gets born [00:22.826]From the body of the night I'm torn [00:25.818]into the blaze of the sun lit morn I'm thrown [00:32.379]So I do what I can [00:35.593]to beating heart and my own two hands [00:38.835]And a thirst to understand this show [00:45.409]And in the halls I hear it sung [00:48.675]The youth is wasted on the young [00:52.050]And these are words that can weigh a ton you know [00:58.859]But one day you'll know what they meant [01:01.937]When you wonder where the wonder went [01:05.195]And all the world is sinking like a stone [01:11.775]We are the lucky ones [01:14.490]You mothers daughters you fathers sons [01:19.137]Don't you grow old before your time [01:25.364]We are the holy rollers [01:28.114]Who take this weight upon our shoulders [01:32.948]And make the best out of life [01:35.539] [01:55.487]Each night when the darkness dawns [01:58.650]And from the troubles of the day I'm drawn [02:01.864]Into the solace of the quiet song that grows [02:08.446]In everything I hear and see [02:11.677]And through the smoke in the air I breathe [02:14.991]And over arms that cover me like home [02:21.737]And on the streets where you hear it said [02:24.985]Our last hopes have long been dead [02:28.348]That's just the noise ringing in your head you know [02:38.709]We are the lucky ones [02:41.116]You mothers daughters you fathers sons [02:45.764]Don't you grow old before your time [02:51.901]We are the holy rollers [02:54.751]We take this weight upon our shoulders [02:59.052]And make the best out of life [03:05.718]We are the lucky ones [03:08.228]You mothers daughters you fathers sons [03:13.050]Don't you grow old before your time [03:19.223]We are the holy rollers [03:21.979]We take this weight upon our shoulders [03:26.321]And make the best out of life
