Trip a Light Toe

I inherit my father's worries
It's not my sister's take on life
And it teaches me to always
Trip a light toe
Reminiscence as my foe

Oh the state of affairs
I am hardly getting by
I'm indebted nonetheless
All the shit of late
I'm still not having it

My mother's eyes
The dimples in our cheeks
Were given to us so gracefully
So on the count of seven, eight
Four bars in a row, in A major I let go

Oh the world's put to a stop
We can only stand by and watch
It is the opposite of luck
Nothing's gonna save us
So we hold on

I held your hands, they were already cold
In my head I softly spoke
If you feel you have to go, then I think that you should
You will always feel like home

Oh the state of affairs
I am hardly getting by
I'm indebted nonetheless and
All the shit of late
I'm still not having it

Oh the world's put to a stop
We can only stand by and watch
It is the opposite of luck
Nothing's gonna save us
So we hold on

'Cause I cannot steer past
The hands of time
I can only hope, that you'll travel light
From now on

Oh the world's put to a stop
We can only stand by and watch
It is the opposite of luck
Nothing's gonna save us
So we hold on

Oh the world's put to a stop
We can only stand by and watch
It is the opposite of luck
And nothing's gonna save us
So we hold on
