When I'm Stuck (Dark Americana)

When I'm Stuck - Dark Americana

Lyrics

## Verse 1
Been hammerin' this wall since the break of dawn  
With calloused hands, my hope is gone  
There's a door right there but I can't see  
Too focused on what's in front of me  

## Chorus
Gotta step back, find another way  
Gotta ask "what for?" before I stay  
Learn to see the forest through the trees  
Get myself up off my knees  

## Verse 2
Bought expensive tools to break on through  
When a simple key was all I'd need to use  
Diggin' deeper in the same old hole  
While the answer waits there, plain and whole  

## Chorus
Gotta step back, find another way  
Gotta ask "what for?" before I stay  
Learn to see the forest through the trees  
Get myself up off my knees  

## Bridge
Time to climb the ladder, step by step  
See the view I haven't seen yet  
Higher ground shows me the path  
Saves me from this endless wrath  

## Verse 3
Now I rise above the mess I made  
Ask "what for?" instead of how it's played  
From up here I see a dozen roads  
Time to choose which way my story goes  

## Final Chorus
Now I step back, find another way  
Now I ask "what for?" before I stay  
I can see the forest through the trees  
Got myself up off my knees
