Lyrics

For Justin

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It's been a year now since you were here now

And I've been trying to heal inside

Dedications have all been placed

And I see your resemblance in my face

And on our birthday I said an extra wish for you (for you)

And I have learned so much since you been gone

And I have done so little for so long

So now I'll settle up my grievances

And focus on the savory

And wave all these discrepancies away

And I'll peter out these misconceptions

Give out faith at my discretion

Live a life that you would think was sane (sane)

Displaying changes

That they have made

And I wonder if you ever really wanted it this way

And in your memory they even hung a plaque for you (for you)

And I have learned so much since you been gone

And I have done so little for so long.

So now I'll settle up these grievances

And focus on the savory

And wave all these discrepancies away.

And I'll peter out these misconceptions

Give out faith at my discretion

Live a life that you would think was sane (sane)
