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

Lyrics
## Verse 1
Been hammerin' this wall since the break of dawn
Been hammerin' this wall since the break of dawn
My hands are bleeding and my hope is gone
## Verse 2
There's a door somewhere but I can't see
Yeah, there's a door somewhere but I can't see
Too busy breakin' what's in front of me
## Chorus
Mmm, I'm stuck down in this hole
Yeah, I'm stuck down in this hole
Diggin' deeper like it's gonna make me whole
## Verse 3
Brought them fancy tools to break on through
Brought them fancy tools to break on through
When all I needed was a different view
## Verse 4
See that ladder leanin' 'gainst the sky
See that ladder leanin' 'gainst the sky
Time to climb up high or lay down and die
## Chorus
Mmm, I'm stuck down in this hole
Yeah, I'm stuck down in this hole
But I'm climbin' out to make me whole
## Verse 5
From up here I see a dozen roads
From up here I see a dozen roads
Time to drop this hammer, lighten up my load
## Final Chorus
No, I ain't stuck down in that hole
No, I ain't stuck down in that hole
Found my way out, now I'm finally whole
Yeah, I found my way to be whole
