Upside the Head
Sometimes in this life we’ll be disheartened
Things don’t always go the way you plan
If you listen you won’t have to hearken
to the drone of lonely Christmas bands
And in our hands we’ll always have to harden
the hold on all the tender friends we have
When holding on to memories is harder
than the years before it all began
CHORUS:
How you manage to make it out alive
reminds me of the time when I derived
so much meaning from the words you said
It always beats me upside the head
Upside the head
Where would all the moments that we shared
have gone without the breaking of bread
And all the people acting out in laughter
Would all be vain and cold if we were dead
CHORUS
In our hearts we’ll always have to pardon
the things we wish that we had never done
If acting out is only part of living
then why are we still so afraid to live?
