Lyrics
I've lost friends and I've lost heroes
I've lost everything I am even my name
Been going through changes been finding clarity
And comfort in just knowing nothing ever stays the same
They don't tell you when you're born it's gonna be this way
They don't tell you until you die it's all a sham
They don't ask you what your name is when you get up to heaven
And thank God
I couldn't tell her I had to who I am
There's some days I ain't okay
And there's some nights I just wanna die
But then comes morning and the light from that blue sky
But I can't see the sunshine through the thunder in my eyes
It's too late now for therapy to save me
And that old radio still won't play me
I can hold down the line but I can't kick the can
Life ain't fair and God is cruel
But at least she ain't the man
They don't tell you when you're born it's gonna be this way
They don't tell until you die it's all a sham
They don't ask you what your name is when you get up to heaven
And thank God
I couldn't tell her if I had to who I am
I couldn't tell her if I had to who I am
