Pretty Good Year

I've been working longer hours, watching money streaming in I've been trusting crooks and liars like I don't have any friends I've been finding myself praying when I'm deepest into sin I've been reinventing happiness again It's been painful resolution set to jubilant applause It's soaring highs and crushing lows and grinding in the jaw It's been begging for forgiveness after laying down the law It's been like surgery to get through all the flaws Will this overture seem dull to all my friends? Will you love me if I leave you here again? 'Cause there's a faith that could tear this whole thing apart So pour the drinks and we'll cause the dancing to start I've been standing at a crossroads for what seems like many days If I go will the house fall down, will I burn it if I stay? Will I be fighting like a coward or running like a brave? I'll be laughing like a mad man either way Will this overture seem dull to all my friends? Will you love me if I leave you here again? When the spell breaks, we'll be back to work What then? There's a faith that could tear this whole thing apart So pour the drinks and we'll cause the dancing to start There are lies that could tear this whole thing apart There are songs that will beg to keep your heart There are songs that will beg to keep your heart
