Lyrics

Gideon

Everybody said that it'd just come to you

Everybody said some spirit would pull you through

But you didn't know it'd be so hard

Out there

Everybody said that good would come to you

Everybody said something would pull you through

Even though it was hard

You know in your heart

You tried

You tried

Everybody said that good would come to you

Everybody said someone would pull you through

Everybody said that it'd just come to you

Everybody said some spirit would pull you through

Through

But you know in your heart

Even though it was hard

You didn't know it'd be so hard

Out there

Out there

Everybody said that good would come to you

Everybody said someone would pull you through

Everybody said that good would come to you

Everybody said something would pull you through

Through
