Man of the Year

Is it in my mind or are we all just sinkin'?
Still fueled by the pain that never left me last season
I'd try to set a fire in your soul, but I just don't have the reasonin'
Someday on down the road when you ask what I believe in, I'll say

You gotta take it as it goes, it doesn't get easier, dear
It's all an empty hole, and fuck it if I ain't the man of the year
No matter where you go, you'll always live in fear
No matter what you know, there's no makin' sense of why we're here

Everythin' good comes to rest, but that's somethin' you'll find out
And all is well as it should 'til there's mud and we're face down
I'm tryin', but money ain't enough to make me feel like a rich man
Now I'm fallin' over the words that I carry to my bed

You gotta take it as it goes, it doesn't get easier, dear
It's all an empty hole, and fuck it if I ain't the man of the year
No matter where you go, you'll always live in fear
No matter what you know, there's no makin' sense of why we're here (mm-yeah)

You gotta take it as it goes, it doesn't get easier, dear
It's all an empty hole, and fuck it if I ain't the man of the year
