64 East

It's been a rough year
Full of ups and downs and things
That I probably could have handled better
But I can't change that now It's been a rough one
But I'm hanging in there
Or at least hanging on by a thread
And a couple friends
And a couple shows
And a couple places I'd like to go
These are the things that
Hold me down to earthEach day gets harder
When your brain is calling scoreboard
'Cause there's rocks on my chest
In a riverbed
It's the million reasons
For the constant dread
And if this is how I go
I probably should sit back and relaxAnd now I'm driving
By my dad's house
All the way out in Yorktown
A place that hasn't felt like home
For at least 4 years
But that's not his fault
Let's make it clearI guess it's mine for moving an hour west
Just trying to do what I thought was best
And I haven't found the right answers yet
I probably never willEach day gets harder
When your brain is calling scoreboard
'Cause there's rocks on my chest
In a riverbed
It's the million reasons
For the constant dread
And if this is how I go
I probably should sit back and relaxBut it's not that simple
Yeah, it gets complicated
When things get intertwined
And I feel it in the parking lots
Where we used to sit
And in our parents' beer
That we used to sip
And the same old brain
That holds me down
I'll probably never be able to get it out
But I'll speak softly
Try to be a little more easyIt's been a rough year
Full of twists and turns and lessons learned
But my blood's still warm and my body's strong
So I guess that means I'll be fine
