I got a million questions
like, "Why the hell can't heaven be on Earth? "
"Why the good folks have to hurt? "
"Why's life a lesson?
Why does every single blessing have a curse? "
"Why does love take so much work? "

And why does mom and daddy's hair have to turn grey
I guess everyone's got reasons
why their shoulders carry weight

There's been a few days I've 'bout folded
But I found one more card to play
Been a few days I was hopeless
And I'd bе damned I drew an ace
Guеss that's life and that's why I remind myself
to spend more time
Talkin' to the dealer than worryin'
about the hands I'm dealt

It sure feels like life would be better
If hearts like mine didn't never wound up broke
It ain't how most stories go
I won't lie, I'm tired of walkin' through this fire
and brimstone stone world we all call home

But I'm, I'm still sittin' at the table makin' bets
Bettin' that some better times are comin' up ahead, yeah

There's been a few days I've 'bout folded
But I found one more card to play
Been a few days I was hopeless
And I'd be damned I drew an ace
Guess that's life and that's why I remind myself
to spend more time
Talkin' to the dealer than worryin'
about the hands I'm dealt
The hands I'm dealt

And I used to think you're supposed to pray
'Cause it was somethin' that God needs
But now I see it's less for him and really more for me

There's been a few days I've 'bout folded
But I found one more card to play
Been a few days I was hopeless
And I'd be damned I drew an ace
I guess that's life and
that's why I remind myself to spend more time
Talkin' to the dealer than worryin'
about the hands I'm dealt
The hands I'm dealt
