Lyrics

I saw the sunrise crawl through a blood stained ceiling,
Felt hope touch my skin like a thief with healing,
People say that life gives and it takes,
But i tell them i just can't catch any breaks,
I'll laugh at the sky thinkin maybe peace had found me,
Then the ground will split open with grief all around me,
Lights rise,
Hearts break,
Every blessing bends beneath the weight,
Hope speaks,
Grief sings,
Balance always comes collecting things,
Can't catch a break,
They keep weighing every dream against disaster,
When i climb,
I feel the fall start chasing faster,
And if i breathe,
There's a storm somewhere learning my name,
Still i reach,
For the light while the dark keeps rigging the game,
My sanity's at stake,
Cause i just can't catch a break,
Funny how the universe smiles with a knife in its teeth,
Hands you a crown while it digs underneath,
One hand gives and the other takes your breath,
Life pours you wine from the mouth of death,
You build a house from the wreckage you survived,
Then thunder asks for proof that you're still alive,
If heaven keeps score,
Then carve me in red,
For every new dawn,
I've buried the dead,
It's in my head how much more do i take,
Cause i just,
Can't catch a break,
They keep weighing every dream against disaster,
When i climb,
I feel the fall start chasing faster,
And if i breathe,
There's a storm somewhere learning my name,
Still i reach,
For the light while the dark keeps rigging the game,
My sanity's at stake,
Cause i just can't catch a break,
Balance this,
With broken fists,
I'll break the scale if the scale insists,
Give,
Take,
Bless,
Break,
Round and round 'til my sanity shakes,
No rest,
No peace,
Just claws in the dark with my name in their teeth,
Hope bleeds,
Grief wakes,
Still screaming out that i just,
Can't catch,
Can't catch a break,
They keep weighing every dream against disaster,
When i climb,
I feel the fall start chasing faster,
But i won't kneel,
Ill still stand tall and try to tame,
I won't give in,
For the sake of the light ill be the master of the game,
Can't catch a break,
