Rise Against - Swing Life Away lyrics

Am I loud and clear or am I breaking up?

Am I still your charm

or am I just bad luck?

Are we getting closer

or are we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine

if you show me yours first

Let's compare scars

I'll tell you whose is worse

Let's unwrite these pages

and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away

We get by just fine here on minimum wage

If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end

I won't cross these streets

until you hold my hand

I've been here so long

I think that its time to move

The winter's so cold summer's over too soon

So let's pack our bags

and settle down where palm trees grow

And I've got some friends some that I hardly know

We've had some times

I wouldn't trade for the world

We chase these days down with talks

of the places that we will go

We live on front porches and swing life away

We get by just fine here on minimum wage

If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end

I won't cross these streets

until you hold my hand

Swing life away
