Jason Myles Goss Things Are Getting Harder song lyrics

They say a man will cry

for all he lets go

but i think most men cry, for reasons they dont know

they hold their hands out straight, towards that sky above

pushing against the weight, of all the dreams they'd dreamed of

Wester Ohio, midwest pipe and steel

my father drove a trailer truck, kept his hands upon the wheel

he would always take the hardest ones,

for that better wage and a chance... for us

caffeine pills, 800 miles through that thick midnight dust

Oh, Every place I go, things are getting harder

In every face I know, things are getting harder

in the eyes of a criminal, and in the heart of a decent man

things are getting harder man

I must have fallen asleep, by the TV's blue light

I found my father at the kitchen table, clutching his keys tight

he was wearing that uniform, he had his head hanging down

Oh, what he drove for all those years, was finally gonna drive him outta town

Oh the older I get, the less clear things seem to be

When all the things you need the most, are the hardest things to see

How can you learn to live in darkness, how can you learn to live in light

Oh when its the same thing that pulls you to your bed,

that keeps you up all night

Oh, Every place I go, things are getting harder

In every face I know, things are getting harder

in every empty-hearted promise, in every unforgiving hand

things are getting harder man

Scroll my name into that deep dark ground, no

lay me under the place where im found

I am lost, I am home

I am home

Every place I go, things are getting harder

In every face I know, things are getting harder

in every town and every city, across a wicked and mighty land

things are getting harder man

(break)

things are getting harder man

things are getting harder man
