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
