Rough Times

hey listen, listen
listen man
listen, man
I don't know how many of you people believe in astrology
yeah, that's right, that's right baby
I am a Sagittarius
the most "philosophical" of all the signs
but anyway, I don't believe in it
I think it's a bunch of bullshit, myself
but I tell you this man
I tell you this
I don't know what's gonna happen, man
but I wanna have my kicks
before the whole shit-house goes up in flames
alright?
alright.

and now you're picking up the pieces
while she parties every weekend
it's getting hard to breathe and you just sit there
lonely, drinking
I know
that sometimes it gets hard
and I know
sometimes it gets rough
but if you hold her tight
and you never let go
she might lend you her hand
just take care of it though

I know it's getting late but I just wanna hold you hand
I'm hoping your awake but if you're not I'll try again
I'm looking far away cause I don't like the way I am
it wouldn't take a lot to make me fall in love again

I know you hate saying goodbye
some things are better off staying a lie

you write these songs about her but you hope she'll never notice
she sits there in the crowd
she loves you so she's supporting
she hides her face under your blanket
she sits there embarrassed but promised you that you'd make it
now you sit there in your rooms
feeling lost and feeling hopeless
just thinking of each other and you wish that you had spoken

I know
that sometimes it gets hard
and I know
that sometimes it gets rough
but if you hold her tight
and you never let go
she just might lend you her hand
just take care of it though
