With the jobs I've taken, the bones that I've broken

Seems nothing's the way that it used to be

Now it's over, I guess that I'm older

The proof is on paper in front of me

Write it down, sound it out (Oh, oh, oh, ohhhh)

Make it loud and this time make it count



I'm sorry for everything I did to you

I didn't mean it

Late for my own funeral as usual



I'm putting it down on paper

So I don't forget it all later

As if I could if I tried anyway

I'll say that I learned my lesson

But I'll make the same mistakes again

I think about this everyday

As I watch the towns fade through side view mirrors



With the jobs I've taken, the bones that I've broken

Seems nothing's the way that it used to be

Now it's over, I guess that I'm older

The proof is on paper in front of me

Write it down, sound it out (Oh, oh, oh, ohhhh)

Make it loud, make it count



I think about this everyday

We all get old and fade away

But through it all I won't forget you



I'm sorry for everything I did to you

I didn't mean it

Late for my own funeral as usual (x2)



You can give, you can take

But you might never find the answers



Moving on now to new situations

Not able to turn to what felt so right

Familiar faces, familiar places

You can't look or live at for one more night



Write it down, sound it out (Oh, oh, oh, ohhhh)

Make it count and this time make me proud
