about

Keep on truckin'

lyrics

A curse describes this year
It brought a sinking ship
It showed an ugly fear
It gets uttered on my lips
And then it slips

A knife across the neck
Utterly circumspect
The time I spent in heck
Not what I'd expect

But I'm doing okay now
It made me strong
I can't say how
But it feels wrong

But I'm doing okay now
It made me strong
I can't say how
But it feels wrong

Camera stares me in the eyes
You can see my face a thousand times
Deflecting questions of why
Reflecting all the thought crimes

There is no consequence
To loving the future first
To shun the present tense
Our goals lay bare the worst

But I'm doing okay now
It made me strong
I can't say how
But it feels wrong

But I'm doing okay now
It made me strong
I can't say how
But it feels wrong

Lying on my back
In the hot sands
All the words I lack
For how I held your hand

The strange, calm sea
For all its glory deep
Couldn't drown your plea
For the eternal sleep

But I'm doing okay now
It made me strong
I can't say how
But it feels wrong

But I'm doing okay now
It made me strong
I can't say how
But it feels wrong
