All that i'm allowed (i'm thankful)

Breaking down never seems to be that hard
Falling short is always in the cards
I´m on the road, sun rising at my back
Lost it all somewhere between the cracks
I always hoped that I´d do better
That I´d come out on top for once
We all get what we´re delivered
Then there are the lucky ones
chorus
And I´ve got all that I´m allowed
It´ll do for me, I´m thankful now
The walls get higher every day
The barriers get in the way
But I see hope in every cloud
And I´m thankful, thankful
I´m thankful, So thankful
I´m thankful, I´ve got all that I´m allowed
Leaving town gets to feel just like a job
My desire never winds up on top
I can say now I didn´t want the moon
It´s out of reach somewhere beyond this room
I always hoped that I´d do better
That I´d come out on top for once
We all get what we´re delivered
Then there are the lucky ones
[repeat chorus]
I´ve always try to make things clear
Then I watched as progress stalled
I only hope I´m standing here
When Heaven finally comes to call
[repeat chorus]
Thankful, So thankful
I´m thankful, I´ve got all that I´m allowed
All that I´m Allowed
I´m Thankful
And I´ve got all that I´m allowed
So Thankful
And I´ve got all that I´m allowed
Falling short is always in the cards
I´m on the road, sun rising at my back
Lost it all somewhere between the cracks
I always hoped that I´d do better
That I´d come out on top for once
We all get what we´re delivered
Then there are the lucky ones
chorus
And I´ve got all that I´m allowed
It´ll do for me, I´m thankful now
The walls get higher every day
The barriers get in the way
But I see hope in every cloud
And I´m thankful, thankful
I´m thankful, So thankful
I´m thankful, I´ve got all that I´m allowed
Leaving town gets to feel just like a job
My desire never winds up on top
I can say now I didn´t want the moon
It´s out of reach somewhere beyond this room
I always hoped that I´d do better
That I´d come out on top for once
We all get what we´re delivered
Then there are the lucky ones
[repeat chorus]
I´ve always try to make things clear
Then I watched as progress stalled
I only hope I´m standing here
When Heaven finally comes to call
[repeat chorus]
Thankful, So thankful
I´m thankful, I´ve got all that I´m allowed
All that I´m Allowed
I´m Thankful
And I´ve got all that I´m allowed
So Thankful
And I´ve got all that I´m allowed
