I don't live alone
I have two children and a wife
When the day folds over
I don't have much extra time

In my middle age
I do the math on give versus take
And it still holds true that nothing lost is nothing gained

Save me from myself and love me


Like a child needs love
And a structure to their day
I see it all before me
Laid out in the simplest way

In the modern age
My addictions have me caged
And the social posturing
I feel cynical and vain

Save me from myself and love me
