Between a rock and a hard place Whether I like it or not I'm digging my grave Friends ask me why I choose to stay Between a rock and a hard place I ain't getting younger now I'm fading like a setting sun I ain't strong like I was when I was young But for all the things I've lost There are a few I've gained Most came between a rock and a hard place Maybe I want to stare death in the face Pound my chest and scream, I ain't afraid Truth is I'm beaten down and broken from all the weight Pushing me to trade my guilt for grace I ain't getting younger now I'm fading like a setting sun I ain't strong like I was when I was young But for all the things I've lost There are a few I've gained Most came between a rock and a hard place A hard place A (?) A hard place So when you lay me down to rest in peace Set my tombstone flat on top of my grave So forever my body will lay between A rock and a hard place I ain't getting younger now I'm fading like a setting sun I ain't strong like I was when I was young But for all the things I've lost There are a few I've gained Most came between a rock and a hard place
