Silver Lining - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Everything feels pointless, the world is full of curses

Gotta get good and lost to find that I still have a purpose

There ain't two ways around it, lord, surrender yourself whole

Only then will this make sense, deep inside your soul

I went out with a vengeance, came back a broken man

Innocence, well lost as I begin to understand

Fairness is a fairy tale and love is so elusive

Take it all for granted in that comfortable confusion

Been having a hell of a time trying to find that silver lining

Because I can't get off the ground, I'm feeling mighty down but I keep trying

Searching for a new home, there's nowhere else to live

The country is too lonely, the city just too big

If home is where the heart is, then I'm an empty shell

I left it back there with her if my memory serves me well

Still having a hell of a time trying to find that silver lining

Because I can't get off the ground, I'm feeling mighty down but I keep trying

Oh, hell

Yeah

Well I've done my share of grieving, done had my fits of rage

Acting like a heathen since sixteen years of age

I'm pumping on the brakes now, well I think I had enough

Once I was afraid of fear, now it ain't so tough

Still having a hell of a time trying to find that silver lining

Because I can't get off the ground, I'm feeling mighty down but I keep trying

Been having a hell of a time trying to find that silver lining

Because I can't get off the ground, I'm feeling mighty down but I keep trying

Oh, hell

Yeah
