Back Into The Light - The Avett Brothers

All of these fathers with their bald spots

Pull to the car line dropping kids off

The sons and daughters of their parents wounds

Parents of their own

It’d make some sense if some were made to me

Sometimes I don’t see love in anything

And just when I surrender to my shadow

I snap out of it, and step into the light

I step back into the light

Sometimes my mind feels like a valley

So I take it to the bar

Fill it up like an ocean

To drown my troubles in

Just to find out what good swimmers they are

It’d make some sense if some were made to me

Sometimes I don’t see love in anything

And just when I surrender to my shadow

I snap out of it, and step into the light

I step back into the light

When my dreams feel like a rusty rail

That I slapped on a coat of paint

As the layer cracked and chipped and failed

This wretched lie is all that remains

It’d make some sense if some were made to me

Sometimes I don’t see love in anything

And just when I surrender to my shadow

I snap out of it, and step into the light

I step back into the light

I step into the light

I step back into the light
