A fog weighs heavy on my cheer this year
The dawn is a challenge to make it clear
The drugs don't work the same this year
I'm getting old I'm lame this year
I haven't felt that thing I fear
I haven't shed a single tear
I need you to sit down right here
Hold me, lend me your ear
Tell me why do we work so hard
Make ourselves so goddamn uncomfortable
Will it all fall apart?
I'm thinking deep, like I'm wise and I'm humble at the same time
Something needs to make sense
At least at the sunrise with my best friends
Give me a lesson
I've been so self involved this year
It's gross. It's getting hard to steer
My judgement has devolved this year
In fact I'm not what I appear
to be in this inthralling sphere,
I am a statue, a snowy deer
Caught in the headlights of this year
God damn you, fuck this god damn this year
Tell me why did we work so hard
Make ourselves so goddamn uncomfortable
Will it all fall apart?
I'm thinking deep, like I'm wise and I'm humble at the same time
Something needs to make sense
At least at the sunrise with my best friends
Give me a lesson
What lesson is there? There's love
What lesson is there? There's fun
It's not a statement. It's just stuff you can have sometimes if you're lucky
What lesson is there? There's drugs
What lesson is there? There's art
Take 'em and make 'em and share 'em
and make us all feel better
I'm gonna make a change this year
I'm heading to another tier
I won't leave all these lessons here
I'm packing up my hopes and fear
I won't leave through the atmosphere
I'm staying put. I'm grounded here
I'm hopeful that some rest is near
I'm ready to start next fucking year
Tell me why do we work so hard
Make ourselves so goddamn uncomfortable
Will it all fall apart?
I'm thinking deep, like I'm wise and I'm humble at the same time
Something needs to make sense
At least at the sunrise with my best friends
Give me a lesson
Give me a lesson
Give me a lesson
Something needs to make sense
At least at the sunrise with my best friends
Give me a lesson
