RISE AGAINST - Swing Life Away lyrics

rate me

Am I loud and clear or am I breaking up?

Am I still your charm or am I just bad luck?

Are we getting closer or we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first

Let's compare scars I'll tell you who's is worse

Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

[Chorus]

We live on front porches and swing life away

We get by just fine here on minimum wage

If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end

I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

I've been here so long I think that its time to move

The winter's so cold summer's over too soon

Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

And I've got some friends some that I hardly know

We've had some times I wouldn't trade for the world

We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

[Chorus]

We live on front porches and swing life away

We get by just fine here on minimum wage

If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end

I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

until you hold my hand

swing life away

swing life away

swing life away

swing life away
