This is a lyric about someone who is having one of those days where it feels like you'll never be done with work and chores and you're bone weary ? but you keep going and know that you're going to get through it.
Out on my feet
(Verse 1)
Life is full force
No respite
It runs its course
Feels so unkind
Out on my feet and out of my mind
Push straight on
Leave nothing behind
(Verse 2)
Out on my feet
Legs of jelly
Still not complete
Caught in a melee
Out on my feet and out of my mind
Push straight on
Leave nothing behind
(Chorus)
Feels like I've run a marathon
Gone twelve rounds but the fight's not done
Standing count but here we go again
Grit my teeth and push through the pain
(Verse 3)
5am start,
The rain?s falling
Hands to the rope,
Lengths uncoiling
Out on my feet and out of my mind
Push straight on
Leave nothing behind
(Verse 4)
Creel after creel
Primed and baited
Into the murk
Each of them weighted
Out on my feet and out of my mind
Push straight on
Leave nothing behind
(Bridge)
Then, unexpected, the wind dies down
I take a moment in the eye of the storm
All is silent, it's just before dawn
Peace is hard won
So breathe it in
Who knows when it'll come again
(Verse 5)
Living full on
Hold on tight
Life is a storm
Morning to night
Out on my feet and out of my mind
Push straight on
Leave nothing behind
(Verse 6 ? repeat of verse 1)
Life is full force
No respite
It runs its course
Feels so unkind
Out on my feet and out of my mind
Push straight on
Leave nothing behind
(Chorus)
Feels like I've run a marathon
Gone twelve rounds but the fight's not done
Standing count but here we go again
Grit my teeth and push through the pain
Standing count but here we go again
Grit my teeth and push through the pain
