[Verse 1]
When it all comes down, what will be the cost?
The cold hard ground is refuge for the lost
Feed the flies, stave the hunger off
Breathe out lies, expel them with a cough

[Pre-Chorus]
You'll never keep me safe from harm
The hurt just keeps on coming on

[Chorus]
I'm still trying to figure it out
I'm still finding reasons to believe in better days now
I'm still trying to figure it out
I'm still trying to figure how to keep the dogs at bay now

[Verse 2]
When the leaves turn brown and all hope is lost
Make no sound and brush emotions off
Breathe inside a fear that leaves you soft
Breathe a sigh and write that epitaph

[Pre-Chorus]
You'll never keep me safe from harm
The hurt just keeps on coming on
[Chorus]
I'm still trying to figure it out
I'm still finding reasons to believe in better days now
I'm still trying to figure it out
I'm still trying to figure how to keep the dogs at bay now
(Keep the dogs at bay now)

I'm still trying to figure it out
I'm still finding reasons to believe in better days now
I'm still trying to figure it out
I'm still trying to figure how to keep the dogs at bay now

I'm still trying to figure it out
To keep the dogs at bay now
Keep the dogs at bay now
I'm still trying to figure it out
To keep the dogs at bay now
To keep the dogs at bay now
