Pieces - Will Driving West

When I was 10, first of class

The future was bright and the stars aligned

Or so they said

I cashed their dreams like they were mine

Hoped I wouldn’t disappoint

And that I’d never let them down

Now I’m this bum

Singing songs of shattered hearts

Poor and lonesome

I guess I’ve had it coming

Pour me some rum

I’ll show you all the broken pieces of

Myself in a box

When I was 20, got this good job

Just like any good kid should

And I got lost

Thought I’d better climb the ladder

Sure that something was up there

Some answer to it all

Now I’m this bum

Singing songs of shattered hearts

Poor and lonesome

I guess I’ve had it coming

Pour me some rum

I’ll show you all the broken pieces of

Myself in a box

Still haven’t found the answer

But I think I know where it hides

In this venue…

Singing with you x2
