lyrics

I’m making the same mistakes that I swore a year ago that I would never make again. I’m telling the same dumb jokes that never got a laugh, I’m living up to my worst traits. I’m wearing the same wet clothes that I swore when I got home I would just throw right in the fire. I’m making the same excuses to not go to work and I’m living down to my last dime.

But I surround myself with people who are greater than the sum of all my flaws. When I don’t feel like it’s something I deserve they tell me that’s not up to me.

I’m writing cheques with my mouth that my body can not cash, I’m getting more grey in my hair. I’m telling lies to people I really like all because I just don’t want to leave the house. I’m not making good on some promises I made and I’m not sure if I’ll ever make it right. I’m laying low in the hopes that this will all blow over soon.

But I keep surrounding myself with people who are greater than the sum of all my flaws. When I don’t feel like it’s something I deserve they tell me that’s not up to me.

So don’t give up on me and I will try not to be here next year. But if there was any other way, not sure that I would want it. You do a thing you hate so much, you start to really like it; start to really think it’s fun!
