Past The Gates

Redlight King - Past the Gates

The truth is they don't give us much time

And it wears us down and keeps fuelin the grind

We take our shots and shield our pride

We lift those stones with the fire inside

Runnin through a maze and we're trying to get ahead

In a rat race chasin for our daily bread

There's no finish line out there in the streets

Well what if there's somethin more than what your eyes beleive

Now that I can see this

Light on 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 pullin us in

We own these chains that pull the weight

And do our best just to dance with fate

And what if there's 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 somethin more than what your eyes believe

Now that I can see this

Light on 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 standin on hollow ground

Cause there's nowhere left to run to now

And it's takin its toll

It wears on my soul

I know there must be somethin 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 on 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
