If It Takes a Lifetime lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been working here, Monday, it'll be a year
And I can't recall a day when I didn't wanna disappear
But I keep on showing up, hell-bent on growing up
If it takes a lifetime

[Verse 2]
I'm learning how to be alone, fall asleep with the TV on
And I fight the urge to live inside my telephone
I keep my spirits high, find happiness by and by
If it takes a lifetime

[Chorus 1]
I got too far from my raising, I forgot where I come from
And the line between right and wrong was so fine
Well I thought the highway loved me
But she beat me like a drum
My day will come, if it takes a lifetime

[Verse 3]
I don't keep liquor here, never cared for wine or beer
And working for the county keeps me p*ssin' clear
The nights are dry as dust, but I'm letting my eyes adjust
If it takes a lifetime

[Chorus 1]
I got too far from my raising, I forgot where I come from
And the line between right and wrong was so fine
Well I thought the highway loved me
But she beat me like a drum
My day will come, if it takes a lifetime
[Verse 4]
Man is the product of all the people that he ever loved
And it don't make a difference how it ended up
If I loved you once my friend, oh, I can do it all again
If it takes a lifetime

[Chorus 2]
We got too far from our raising and we fought 'til we went numb
You were running up a mountain in your own mind
And I thought that I was running to what I was running from
Oh, our day will come, if it takes a lifetime
Our day will come, if it takes a lifetime
