Past The Gates
The truth is they don't give us much time
And it wears us down and keeps fueling the grind
We take our shots and shield our pride
We lift these stones with the fire inside
Burning through the maze we're trying to get ahead
In a rat race chasing for our daily bread
There's no finish line out there in the streets
Well, what if there's something more than what your eyes believe
Now that I can see this light down the road
So far I know there's something else
If I live or die, I know it won't be easy
Past the gates of heaven and hell
It's hard to know where it starts or ends
It's the simple things that keep pulling us in
We own these chains that pull the weight
And our best just to dance with fate
And what if there's no more than your heart can bleed
When the signs aren't clear and it's hard to breathe
And you're so fed up with how it's supposed to be
There's gotta be something more than what your eyes believe
Now that I can see this light down the road
So far I know there's something else
If I live or die, I know it won't be easy
Past the gates of heaven and hell
Am I standing on hollow ground
'Cause there's nowhere left to run to now
And it's taking its toll, it wears on my soul
I know there must be something else
Past the gates of heaven, past the gates of heaven
Past the gates of heaven and hell
Now that I can see this light down the road
So far I know there's something else
If I live or die, I know it won't be easy
Past the gates of heaven and hell
And it wears us down and keeps fueling the grind
We take our shots and shield our pride
We lift these stones with the fire inside
Burning through the maze we're trying to get ahead
In a rat race chasing for our daily bread
There's no finish line out there in the streets
Well, what if there's something more than what your eyes believe
Now that I can see this light down the road
So far I know there's something else
If I live or die, I know it won't be easy
Past the gates of heaven and hell
It's hard to know where it starts or ends
It's the simple things that keep pulling us in
We own these chains that pull the weight
And our best just to dance with fate
And what if there's no more than your heart can bleed
When the signs aren't clear and it's hard to breathe
And you're so fed up with how it's supposed to be
There's gotta be something more than what your eyes believe
Now that I can see this light down the road
So far I know there's something else
If I live or die, I know it won't be easy
Past the gates of heaven and hell
Am I standing on hollow ground
'Cause there's nowhere left to run to now
And it's taking its toll, it wears on my soul
I know there must be something else
Past the gates of heaven, past the gates of heaven
Past the gates of heaven and hell
Now that I can see this light down the road
So far I know there's something else
If I live or die, I know it won't be easy
Past the gates of heaven and hell
