The way I've been feeling lately I'm starting to wonder
If I'm ever gonna get further down the line
I'm stuck here in my head
And I'm tethered by a thread
To the same old tracks that keep running through my mind

Hand me down a new tradition
Hand me down a sight unseen
Hand me down a new edition
One that's evergreen

I need a new a new vision a new way to see the world
A kind of thing I ain't ever seen before
Something to keep me going
Not preaching just showing
A better way than just keeping score

Hand me down a new tradition
Hand me down a sight unseen
Hand me down a new edition
One that's evergreen

Once I find it I got a crazy feeling
It's not the kind of thing that comes and then it goes
It's always been around
Just waiting to be found
Like trees that don't turn and hearts that never close

I know that it exists because I've felt it in the rhythm
Of the way the world moves around the sun and through us all
It's out there in the ether
And I know it must be either
In the beauty of the burden or the freedom of the fall

Hand me down a new tradition
Hand me down a sight unseen
Hand me down a new edition
One that's evergreen
Evergreen

Hand me down
Evergreen
Hand me down
Evergreen

Evergreen
Hand me down
Evergreen
Hand me down
Evergreen
