Rhythm Of Life Lyrics - Misguided Roses - Edwin Mccain

The rhythm of life 

Heaven withstanding and smiling we're all swept away 

The rhythm of life 

Is not so demanding as some caught in narrows would say 

Fragile as ships as we pass through Gibraltar 

The sirens have long given way 

Dark as the murky graveyard of sailors 

Whispering secrets told in the crashing waves 

The beating of hearts 

Set walls to trembling the power of silence persuades 

The stumbling feet 

Stagger predestined we all end up wild eyed and crazed 

And from the madness most jaded of vision 

Reflections of horror invade 

Running and falling relinquish your venom 

The antidote surely will cause your affliction to fade 

How little we know of what we are blessed with 

Our shimmering island it turns 

How little we look at what we see clearly 

Of tragedy's lessons not learned 

Sleeping through classes we'll make it up later 

There's still so much time left to go 

Misguided roses we bloom in October 

Emerging triumphant in time for the season's first snow
