Livin on a Prayer Epoch Failure

Once upon a time
Right here, right now…

VERSE 1
I been Tommy, working on the dock
I’ve worn Gina shoes, working ‘round the clock
You’ve been underpaid and overworked
I can see the blood and sweat stained your overshirt
And it ain’t nothin’ to laugh when pain’s something you feel
Try to keep it concealed, ain’t time to reveal
But I know, when it’s too much, I don’t wanna do much
Lost in transmission, I think I need a new clutch
Holding on to my last, gotta give it my all
Even when we can’t stand, we gotta give ‘em a crawl
Gotta give ‘em a push, just push and keep pushin’
Once I get my footing, my falls will be cushioned
‘Til then hold on, hold on
Gotta pray it goes right, even when it goes wrong
Down on your luck, just re-up on your blessings
Life’s a test, just keep up with the lessons

PRE-CHORUS
We’ve gotta hold on to what we’ve got
It doesn’t make a difference if we make it or not
We’ve got each other and that’s a lot
For love, we’ll give it a shot…
