99 and counting

[Verse 1] Saw that squirrel in my garden Watched my grandpa die this morning He was 99 and counting Had his family around him Something profound hit me I was ready to die at 15 Think my cat really would've missed me Thought the guy of my dreams would fix me [Chorus] But some things just take time Sometimes there's no sign [Verse 2] Swallowed a fly at the studio That would've broke me a year ago Think I'm starting to grow a back bone Now I'm learning to let things let go And I was thinking about Hiroshima And my heart sank a little deeper There's a darkness inside most people We're the same but some are more equal [Chorus] And some things just take time Sometimes there's no sign Somehow I chose right So much more to life [Outro] I don't cry on the floor of my shower anymore I don't starve myself, don't slam the bedroom door And I don't lie to my friend when I'm planning out the end I won't type a goodbye note and I won't, and I won't hit send 'Til I'm 99 and, 'til I'm 99 and counting
