The Average

No one told me I would suffer

No one told me I would grieve

They told me live the way you want to

You still inherit eternity

But something I got in my head

Are telling me those words are dead

Now I can tell it's a lie and here's why

Swept away in the dead of winter

It's only when I cry out for my Lover

Then I'll move along, I move along

Summer comes and I look to no one

'Til the leaves start changing color

Then I'll pray too long, I'll pray too long

Now there are moments where I am faithful

But I do it for worldly gain

And if it doesn't come I will see that

Under all the self restraint

Something I got in my head

Are telling me those words are dead

Now I can tell it's a lie and here's why

Swept away in the dead of winter

It's only when I cry out for my Lover

And then I'll move along, I'll move along

Summer comes and I look to no one

'Til the leaves start changing colors

Then I'll pray it alone, I'll pray it alone

The truth is don't be surprised when trials

Come and invade your lives

The truth is we follow Christ

In the good or bad, in the day or night

Swept away in the dead of winter

It's only when I cry out for my Lover

And then I'll move along, I'll move along

Summer comes and I look to no one

'Til the leaves start changing colors

Then I'll pray it alone, I'll pray it alone
