When things change for the better
Your guard goes up I don't know
That ain't the way the way things go
Staying above the gallows
Any small victory seems to take so long
Just raise a glass until the feelings gone
Staying above the gallows
Got more yesterdays than tomorrows
Don't always matter to some
Ain't enough time for a man to borrow
To turn indiscretions undone
So I'll be your tried and true anchor my days to you
Staying above the gallows
When I'm home in the evening
Hang my day at the door
Times undefeated there could always be more
Staying above the gallows
Got more yesterdays than tomorrows
Don't always matter to some
Ain't enough time for a man to borrow
To turn indiscretions undone
So I'll be your tried and true anchor my days to you
Staying above the gallows
Time to be bold and do what you're told
Don't let your heart fall to your feet
Cheap draws and guitars and a place to sleep
These days it's all I need
Got more yesterdays than tomorrows
Don't always matter to some
Ain't enough time for a man to borrow
To turn indiscretions undone
So I'll be your tried and true anchor my days to you
Staying above the gallows
