From the recording Goodwill T-shirt
Lyrics
I've made mistakes
In the backyard of east LA
You get your facts learned on Ventura Highway
They're screaming this is life but I'm playing a game
And if life was a game
Well you and me had two different ways to play
You got your facts learned from the trauma that you faced
I kept on learning mine through a fist to the face
What an endless disgrace
But I've made mistakes and I wish I was lying
My t-shirts from Goodwill that I start to cry in
Emerge like a star effervescent I'm shining
And even if you never know I'll know I'm done hiding
From responsibilities
I think I finally found a path to set me free
I've started owning up to all of my misdeeds
Cause every song just used to sound so out of key
But I sing with passion at least
And in the background I'll dream of you and me
All it was and all that it still could be
But my doctor said too much hope might kill me
What else can keep me going?
Well I've made mistakes and I wish I was lying
My t-shirts from Goodwill that I start to cry in
Emerge like a star effervescent I'm shining
And even if you never know I'll know I'm done hiding
The ocean looks beautiful I might as well dive in
I watch your needs as they shine in my silence
No better reason for tears that are drying
No better reason for calls your declining
