Can't Get Back

(album: Life Is Weird - 2023)

Life's not all good, but
It's not all bad, I
Put my heart into
Things I can't get back
If there is a God
Hope we smile and laugh
If there isn't one
I'd be find that

I'm full of love and light
I'm full of fear and rage
Make plans for tomorrow
Could be gone today
If I have a child
Hope he grows in age
To be 21, to be 48

Just ask
Used to have a bus pass
Used wake up early in the morning
Watching Rugrats
Momma never put me in them Jordan's
But she lunch packed
In a way she taught me what's important
And I love that

I, I, I wish that I could find a way
To have a conversation with myself
And tell him who he'll be
When he grows up, he might nuts
But it works eventually
Till it doesn't but you budget
Then you rinse wash and repeat

Life's not all good, but
It's not all bad, I
Put my heart into
Things I can't get back
If there is a God
Hope we smile and laugh
If there isn't one
I'd be find that

I'm full of love and light
I'm full of fear and rage
Make plans for tomorrow
Could be gone today
If I have a child
Hope he grows in age
To be 21, to be 48

Yeah, woke up this morning
Was washing the dishes
Thinking bout all of the friends
That I have in my life at the moment
Ain't making additions
More like subtractions
Became a man had to stand on my actions
I put my hand out and had to retract it
In hindsight I'm kind of embarrassed for asking

I, I, I know that there's so much to see
We get caught up in our circles
Cuz we're too afraid to leave
You might love until it hurts you
Till you're broken, till you bleed
But until life calls your curfew
Better get back on your feet
Life is weird
