"Powerless" lyrics - MAT KEARNEY

MAT KEARNEY
"Powerless"
(Mat Kearney / Eli Teplin)

Flashing floods, stuck in the mud
I was off the grid in all the ruts
Still felt so close from far away
Sun went down, lights went out
We built a fire, so strong now
And there's no words for what I want to say

[Chorus:]
Lay me down here to sleep
To the sound of defeat
When it comes to us we're powerless
Powerless

Violent wind, blew down the door
Did me in and I prayed for more
All the damage done and I don't wanna change
No way

[Chorus:]
Lay me down here to sleep
To the sound of defeat
When it comes to us we're powerless
Powerless

[Bridge:]
One friend said
"Nothing's really set in stone
Another way of holding on
Find a way to let it go"
I don't remember what you said
But I remember what you meant
I remember how it felt
How it felt to loose control

[Tag:]
Powerless
Powerless
Powerless
