Stronger
I was caught up in a sandbar
For the tide had not come in
And the ship was all but grounded here
Waiting to begin
There's a trick to understanding
What it is you couldn't see
And a map without a compass
Is impossible to read
Lights out, a pillowcase to cry on
A good friend to rely on for a prayer
Oh please, be careful, my brother
The fighting will never be fair
Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away
The pathway to the future
Is always straight ahead
So I took off in that direction
Just to see where it led
The weather's nice in Florida
When you come from the mid-west
But pretty soon it turned to desert
And it's sure been a test
Take heart behind the bathroom door
A good shoulder to cry on unaware
But don't forget that a kick in the face
Is for some daily fare
Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away
And it's struggle that I can't escape
But it's something I can run to, hey, hey, hey
Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away
For the tide had not come in
And the ship was all but grounded here
Waiting to begin
There's a trick to understanding
What it is you couldn't see
And a map without a compass
Is impossible to read
Lights out, a pillowcase to cry on
A good friend to rely on for a prayer
Oh please, be careful, my brother
The fighting will never be fair
Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away
The pathway to the future
Is always straight ahead
So I took off in that direction
Just to see where it led
The weather's nice in Florida
When you come from the mid-west
But pretty soon it turned to desert
And it's sure been a test
Take heart behind the bathroom door
A good shoulder to cry on unaware
But don't forget that a kick in the face
Is for some daily fare
Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away
And it's struggle that I can't escape
But it's something I can run to, hey, hey, hey
Oh, it can only make me stronger
Cast the weight away
Oh, stronger and stronger
Sail away, away
