Back Into The Light - The Avett Brothers

Back Into The Light - The Avett Brothers Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All of these fathers with their bald spots
Pull to the car line dropping kids off
The sons and daughters of their parents' wounds
Parents of their own

[Chorus]
It'd make some sense if some was made to me
Sometimes I don't see love in anything
And just when I surrender to my shadow
I snap out of it, and step into the light
I step back into the light

[Verse 2]
Sometimes my mind feels like a valley
So I take it to the bar
Fill it up like an ocean
To drown my troubles in
Just to find out what good swimmers they are

[Chorus]
It'd make some sense if some was made to me
Sometimes I don't see love in anything
And just when I surrender to my shadow
I snap out of it, and step into the light
I step back into the light

[Verse 3]
When my dreams feel like a rusty rail
That I slapped on a coat of paint
As the layers cracked, and chipped, and failed
This wretched lie is all that remains

[Chorus]
It'd make some sense if some was made to me
Sometimes I don't see love in anything
And just when I surrender to my shadow
I snap out of it, yeah, I snap out of it
And I step into the light
I step back into the light
I step into the light
I step back into the light
