lyrics

Sleeping in church parking lots and cars for a week only sucks when you get home and you're normal. But on the seventh day I rested on your floor.

A man will shake the whole damn night next to his ex's comfy bed.

Good graces will take you down the East Coast.
Good graces in Cincinnati broke my heart.
I know I don't sound very grateful,

but I am.

And in a couple of hours I saw where all the time had gone.
Then I got drunk and forgot; but you don't have to have the most
to have it made.
You've just gotta keep your head up.

~~~

So if you see me, I can guarantee that I'm smiling for composure.
So if I see you, I'll be breaking. Because you're not the kind of girl someone gets over... it's never over. If I could just remember where the time has gone; my shoelaces have me by the neck, I'm looking down.
A captive to my Converse, closer to the ground. I stole a Sharpie from a Lion's Den and wrote "boy, keep your head up" on top.

I don't have you, but I don't have to have the most to have it made,

I've got it made.
I've got it made.
I've got it made.

REPEAT UNTIL I BELIEVE IT.
