look back at a bankrupt life then brave another day
i’ve made more than my share of mistakes, any one would say
you were not sent from heaven, i don’t care one bit
you save me from myself kinda like i deserve it
look forward to nothing more but the same and same ol’ thrills
i make decisions after i pay the oldest bills
i wish for something else with every smile i fake
but thanks to you there’s nothing I can’t shake
look at this fortunate life then spend another day
i make decisions and mistakes by right-of-way
there’s nothing i can’t have or do or say or sing
but you are just what makes my life worth anything
i get everyone’s opinion absolutely free
they tell me why i do what i do, if they know me
and how i should compare their value and the score
but you can make me feel perfect, not less or more
some don’t, some do
some will kill you
some do not bother
but some come around and have a way
to light my every single day
hitting bottom or top-shelf
you make me feel good about myself
look here it’s all about life and we aren’t who i am
there’s nothing wrong with a person trying to give a damn
not about what you do or don’t have in your pocketbook
but what we can be to each other when we really have a look
