I was on the line
Punched in
Beat back over time
As the days go by
Just another year to hide behind
I was told in life
(I was told in life)
If you're not first then you're outta sight
And I bought the lie
A hundred times
Just to feel like a bigger man
(Tell me how that went)
Tell me how that went
Day after day
Keep showing up
Just let the world go spinning
For the first time in my life
It's fine that I'm not perfect
Nobody's fool
Nobody's cool
It's who you are
And I'm older
And I'm staying on track
And death gets me with a heart attack
No more keeping up with the Joneses
Trimming hedges
On the cul-de-sac
What's a good life?
(What's a good life?)
What's a favorite thing you've done?
I will claim this final moment
As the ship hums on and on
Even when you're gone
Day after day
Keep showing up
(Maybe I have to)
Just the let the world go spinning
For the first time in my life
It's fine that I'm not perfect
Nobody's fool
Nobody's cool
It's who you are
