Free, alone
The pre-dawn white light's coming on
Bottle on the nightstand
I count disasters on my free hand now
Run for cover, there's a big one coming
You'll be lucky if you're at ground zero
No one said that this life was easy
Did that no one ever live a life this hard?
It gets hard
The bills are scattered in the yard
Ashtray monument
A life spent waiting in cement comes down
Run for cover, there's a big one coming
You'll be lucky if it's got your number
No one said that this life was easy
Did that no one ever live a life this hard?
After all, it's not that bad
I still have pictures, I look back
At all the things that we once did
You said I love you, I guess you did
Remember our life
I did the dishes while you read out loud
Best friends, strangers now
Were our kids all we could call common ground?
After all, it's not that bad
I still have pictures, I look back
At all the things that we once did
You said I love you, I guess you did
