lyrics

It’s been a long time since I’ve felt
Just like myself, I guess I’ll try
And make it right

I stay up late drinking
My sorrows away and i know
I can’t relate to you

I love the way the lazy river
Cuts through the mighty stone
Just like bad blood cuts through my bones

I never claimed to be perfect
And I’m sorry if I never tried
I was only ever able
To be myself, love
And I know that’s not what you wanted
Of me

I take a walk to ease my mind
But every step I take I seem to find
I can’t even walk a straight line

The stars start spinning instead
Gonna fall down on top of my head
I Should’ve listened to what you said

The sunset silhouette it haunts me
When I close my eyes it’s all I see
Why won’t these memories let me be?

I never claimed to be perfect
And I’m sorry if I ever wronged you
I was only ever able
To be myself, love
And I know that’s not what you wanted

It’s alright now

Well I guess I fell down in this big old ditch
And the world down here ain’t such a bih
And it’s alright now

And the birds in the trees and the fish down in the sea
They sing with me these songs that ease
And it’s alright now

And the rain is pounding on my door
It’s here to settle up a score
And it’s alright now

I love the way the wind whispers wisdom in my ear
It makes me wonder what’s left to hear
And it’s alright now
It’s alright now
It’s alright now

I guess that means sufferings
Lend themselves to understanding
Or happiness

Let’s strip away the silver lining
And see that life is really dying
We’re running out of time

I hold on to all I got
I know it ain’t much, it’s just my thoughts
And they ain’t so top notch
