lyrics
Everything is falling apart
and I don’t care.
And it bugs the shit out of me
that I don’t care.
It’s hard to pry these lazy bones
from an easy chair.
I think of me alone
and old and I get scared.
And I
don’t know why
but I got something
that helps me
turn
this heavy load
into a featherweight.
Obey the pain complacently
in my old age.
Doubt feels like it’s gonna leave,
but it always stays.
And even though I swear I’m gonna
give up everyday.
Something gets me out of bed
to try another way.
And I
don’t know why
but I got something
that helps me
turn
this heavy load
into a featherweight.
