How could we lose sight Of what matters most Trying not to love What cannot love us back All we have is not worth living for If we do not know when to let go What is this life That we sling to it so tight Afraid that it will take from us

What have I become My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away in the end And you could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt I hurt myself today

But don't think I don't think about it Don't think I don't have regrets Don't think it don't get to me Between the work and the hurt and the whiskey Don't think I don't wonder 'bout Could've been, should've been all worked out I know what I felt, and I

Now we have a lot of love to give I dream of a past that we could have Felt like we made up so entirely Blame it on your curiosity And out into the sun, into the sun But it's not released through all the misery But it's not released all the misery Broken

It's time to get up, get up, get, get, get up Get tired of waiting Get up, get up, get get get up We'll pick it up from where we started We're gonna take it one step farther If you hear what I'm saying Then we could have it all tonight They ain't gonna
