Good Intentions

Something about this city when it's cold
On the sidewalks the wind through my bones
It's how I spent
My holidays

Maybe it's reminiscent of younger days
When time was so abundant you could wish it away
I don't know
But I can feel this cold

It reminds me of all the mistakes I've made

20-some years of living with regret
50 more and then that will be that
Good intentions are good for nothing I suppose

I try hard just to fail even harder
Aim for the center, miss the whole goddamn target
These good intention are good for nothing I know

I'm only honest when I talk in my sleep
Counting mistakes like most would count sheep
Then the dreams that ensue have me sweating through my clothes

Every night I relive my faults
I'm so close to overcoming them all
Yea I patch them up like I'm learning to sew

I never can forget, but appear too unwilling to learn

20-some years of living with regret
50 more and then that will be that
Good intentions are good for nothing I suppose

I try hard just to fail even harder
Aim for the center miss the whole goddamn target
These good intention are good for nothing I know

20-some years of living with regret
50 more and then that will be that
Good intentions are good for nothing I suppose

I try hard just to fail even harder
Aim for the center miss the whole goddamn target
These good intention are good for nothing I know
