Without the clouds in the sky
We wouldn't care about the sun when it shines
The bad helps to define the good
The splinter is the cost of the wood
So take it all in stride (stride)
Take it all in stride (stride)
Take it all in stride (stride)
I ain't been sober in a month 'cause I'm losin' my conviction
At the end of a tunnel filled with all my bad decisions
I'm learnin' bad luck is the only kind I got
I've been burned, and I've been fucked
It's so much harder than I thought
If I'd just been born in Cali, I'd already be a star
But I'm from the mid-Atlantic playing reggae in a bar
And I've been climbin' up this hill so goddamn long
The boy who wrote the lyrics ain't the man singin' the songs
Without the clouds in the sky
We wouldn't care about the sun when it shines
The bad helps to define the good
The splinter is the cost of the wood
So take it all in stride (stride)
Take it all in stride (stride)
Take it all in stride (stride)
And every single night (night)
I turn out the light
Close my eyes and the demons show their face
And remind me that I'm about to conclude another day
Short of where I wanna be and with no clue how to get there
And failure is a scent that I'm destined to always wear
Please, God, if You exist, help me 'cause it ain't fair
I'm shouldering a burden, and it's more than I can bare
So take it all in stride (stride)
Take it all in stride (stride)
Take it all in stride (stride)
Don't doubt the sun is behind the clouds
No matter what you think it oughta be about
Go tell the one you can't be without
That you wanna take time to know her better
Don't doubt the clouds are temporary
Holding on to something that you wish you had plenty
But it bolted down to the concrete floor
You say you want less, but I'm giving you more
Anyway I could say what you want me to say
I could recycle all the bullshit and become a cliché
I could take back all of my music and make everyone pay
I could do this, really do this in a serious way
I wouldn't waste my time looking at the sky
When everything I love is down here on the ground
Would you listen to the sound bumping ugly?
Without the clouds in the sky
We wouldn't care about the sun when it shines
The bad helps to define the good
The splinter is the cost of the wood
So take it all in stride
Take it all in stride
Take it all in stride
Take it all in stride
Take it all in stride
Take it all in stride
Take it all in stride
