I can’t seem to see the beauty in the little things I step back and I can’t find the forest for the bitter leaves Leaving bittersweet trails for the snail and the rabbits The patient and the panicked ones, twos...
Ones, twos, threes, fours..
The whiskey on your breath is making me sick It makes me think about the words you said, “Life could be a dream” But waking up would be enough but then you’re stuck Somewhere between the ifs and buts and whys and Who’s to blame when all that’s right is wrong, it’s all the same Just a game to play to lose we choose to stay or go Who knows the roads to take, take, take Maybe you do but I’m confused and all I really know, Jay, Is that the whiskey on your breath, Oh Lord, it’s kinda making me sick. The games I play today, how could I explain?
The days that pull my hair, punch me in the gut Spilt cups sink or swim, we’re all diving into the world On TV, we see the lovely people smiling free I worry we worry about the way they are More than the people we love, people we could become People, look at what we’ve become.
So what if I count to four on this tree? And then if I turn around I might see That this game of hide and seek
It was never for me, it was never for you We live to believe, we die cause it’s true But it’s better than losing the faith in the one that you love Or finding out God is no cloud up above But the kingdom come, well it’s a heart full of love A love that is deeper than steeples and hugs A love that keeps people keep hoping for love A love that holds on when we’re not enough
