SEAN WATKINS
"Where You Were Living"

You were born unto a king and queen
And taught right from wrong
Gettin' everythin' you needed
In your castle, safe from harm
'Til you dared one day to step outside
And have a look around
Just to turn and find your fortress
Was a hole in the ground
Just a hole in the ground

[Pre-Chorus:]
So you dove into the world
Where you were told you'd be destroyed
And your life would unfurl
And you'd lose all your joy

[Chorus:]
You saw your share of mistakes
But you forgave and were forgiven
Thank God you crawled out of
That hole where you were livin'

You were warned not to question
That's the devil planting seeds
And the power of suggestion
Is a mighty force indeed
But you said
Why, tell me why
Would you be given a mind
Along with a fear to lose it
Lest you be left behind?
Yeah, don't get left behind

[Pre-Chorus:]
So you dove into the world
Where you were told you'd be destroyed
You met a lotta girls
You made a little noise
Mmm

[Chorus:]
You saw your share of mistakes
But you forgave and were forgiven
Thank God you crawled out of
That hole where you were livin'

[Pre-Chorus:]
Yeah, you dove into the world
You were told you'd be destroyed
And your life would unfurl
And you'd lose all your joy

[Chorus:]
You made your share of mistakes
But you forgave and were forgiven
And you thank God you crawled out of
That hole where you were livin'
