The Average

No one told me I would suffer No one told me I would grieve They told me live the way you want to You still inherit eternity But something I got in my head Are telling me those words are dead Now I can tell it's a lie and here's why Swept away in the dead of winter It's only when I cry out for my lover Then I'll move along, I move along Summer comes and I look to no one 'Til the leaves start changing color Then I'll pray too long, I'll pray too long Now there are moments where I am faithful But I do it for worldly gain And if it doesn't come I will see that Under all the self restraint Something I got in my head Are telling me those words are dead Now I can tell it's a lie and here's why Swept away in the dead of winter It's only when I cry out for my lover And then I'll move along, I'll move along Summer comes and I look to no one 'Til the leaves start changing colors Then I'll pray it alone, I'll pray it alone The truth is don't be surprised when trials Come and invade your lives The truth is we follow Christ In the good or bad, in the day or night Swept away in the dead of winter It's only when I cry out for my lover And then I'll move along, I'll move along Summer comes and I look to no one 'Til the leaves start changing colors Then I'll pray it alone, I'll pray it alone Swept away in the dead of winter It's only when I cry out for my lover And then I'll move along, I'll move along Summer comes and I look to no one 'Til the leaves start changing colors Then I'll pray it alone, I'll pray it alone The truth is don't be surprised When trials come and invade your lives The truth is we follow Christ In the good or bad, in the day or night
