Now You Got It

(album: Nobody Likes A Quitter - 2016)

I tracked you down through early snow
Nicked your arm, now I know where to go
Honestly, I try, but I just want to die
I want home to feel like home, alright
For every project that won't start
There's another family member left in the dark
But every year I wait, it feels like a mistake
There went time and left me with my age

Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?

I remember coming to
In your arms, I found the clutch of truth
It broke my soul right down and let my body drown
So pull me out, wake me up, I'm found

Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?

Always feels like the past is pressing down on me
Like trying to breathe in the wind
And trying to break the trees
Nothing here but a page of old enemies
Nothing there but shame, like everyone
Nobody said you could sit
Well, no one cares at all
Who spends their time when they were
Instead of when they'll go
I'll admit that it's hard trying to complain to you
I'm not in pain, just nervous
For every product I invent
Comes another prodigy with cooler synths
And now that I can see it, I'll bow out and not repeat
I'll move my heart to simple art, concede

Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
Now you got it, don't you?
