Crutches

I spent eight months in a basement

To find what I was capable of

I wrote my thoughts on paper

Discovered a new brand of love

I'll try to make the most of this

I'll try to do it right

But unfortunately there's no set path

To live this kind of life

So I'll put one foot in front of the other

And I know that I'll fall and I'll stagger

See lately I've been drinking a little to much

It's the taste of irish whiskey that

I hold onto like a crutch

I pour my head out into this little black book

And I'll share some of these thoughts with you

If you promise not to look

It's made me who I'm meant to be

It was the best damn gift my father ever gave to me

(Ever gave to me)

And it helps me

Put one foot in front of the other

And I know that I'll fall and I'll stagger

See lately I've been thinking way too much

And I've been holding onto memories

Like a goddamn crutch

Like a goddamn crutch

I'll put one foot in front of the other

And I know that I'll fall and I'll stagger

See lately I've been sleeping a little too much

And I've been holding onto

My dreams like a goddamn crutch
