lyrics

I wanna take everything about yesterday and put it away
But my mind just doesn’t work that way
With a past so bruised
These things might as well be happening today

I wanna take all my friends and family
Lock em up in a safe
Hold on to the here and now
Let em out on a rainy day
When I'm feeling this way

For all that I have I'm grateful
To all those who've hurt me I'm still not hateful
I think there's something to be said for that
Maybe not a pat on the back
Maybe not a trophy on a shelf
But it'd be nice if I could just find a little peace with myself

I wanna take all my sad clouds and rain
Screw em up in a jar
Let em out in a crowded bar
Where the music plays
They can join in singing or run away

Run away, run away, run away

You left me here brother with everything
To handle everything on my own
Sometimes I think I wanna join you
But that's never really thought through
And anyone who knows me knows It's not something I would do
But I really don't know myself
Sometimes I feel like someone else
Well I jump into my car
Or pick up my guitar and I'm
Somewhere else

But for all that I have I'm grateful
To all those who've hurt me I'm still not hateful
I think there's something to be said for that
Maybe not a pat on the back
Maybe not a trophy on a shelf
But it'd be nice if I could find a little peace
It'd be nice if I could find some peace
It'd be nice if I could just find a little peace with myself
