These Things Take Time lyrics

I want to know why, pain makes me stronger
I wanna know why good men die
Why am I so afraid of the dark
but I stray from the light
I wanna know why you gave me eyes, when faith is the way I see
tell me is it easier to doubt, or harder to believe
So many questions stirring in me

And I'm wondering why
Sometime the truth isn't easy to find
I wanna know all the answers
but I'm learning that these things take time
yeah, these things take time

How can success make us feel like failures
and the harder we fall the harder we try
the more I have the more I need
just to feel like I'm getting by
oh, there's so many questions and one short life

and I'm wondering why
Sometime the truth isn't easy to find
I wanna know all the answers
but I'm learning that these things take time
yeah, these things take time

and we spend so much time chasing our tails
hoping to find every last answer
to everything in life
so many questions not enough time

but I'm still wondering why
Sometime the truth isn't easy to find
I wanna know all the answers
but I'm learning that these things take time
yeah, these things take time

hey
we all wanna understand why
evil lives and good men die
I'm on the way to having truth unwind
these things take time (3x's)
