All That I'm Allowed [I'm Thankful] lyrics

Breaking down

Never seems to be that hard

Falling short

Is always in the cards

I'm on the road

Sun rising at my back

Lost it all

Somewhere between the cracks

I always hoped that I'd do better

That I'd come out on top for once

We all get what we're delivered

Then there are the lucky ones

And I've got all that I'm allowed

It'll do for me I'm thankful now

The walls get higher every day

The barriers get in the way

But I see hope in every cloud

And I'm thankful; thankful

I'm thankful; so thankful; I'm thankful

I've got all that I'm allowed

Leaving town

Gets to feel just like a job

My desire

Never winds up on top

I can't say now

I didn't want the moon

It's out of reach

Somewhere beyond this room

I always hoped that I'd do better

That I'd come out on top for once

We all get what we're delivered

Then there are the lucky ones

And I've got all that I'm allowed

It'll do for me I'm thankful now

The walls get higher every day

The barriers get in the way

But I see hope in every cloud

And I'm thankful; thankful

I'm thankful; so thankful; I'm thankful

I've got all that I'm allowed

I've always tried to make things clear

Then I watched as progress stalled

I only hope I'm standing here

When Heaven finally comes to call

And I've got all that I'm allowed

It'll do for me I'm thankful now

The walls get higher every day

The barriers get in the way

But I see hope in every cloud

And I'm thankful; thankful

I'm thankful; so thankful; I'm thankful

I've got all that I'm allowed

Thankful; I'm thankful;

So thankful; I'm thankful

I've got all that I'm allowed

All that I'm allowed

I'm thankful

And I've got all that I'm allowed

So thankful

And I've got all that I'm allowed
