I Won It
Panic attacks, she can’t relax
She’s taking all the drugs
I’m leaving tea around the house
In all these half drunk mugs
The hair on my head is getting thinner
And whiter by the day
But still somehow I’m happy sometimes
Do I deserve to feel that way?
Sun today and 60 high
It’s snow tomorrow though
That’s just how it is in April
I take it blow by blow
The birds are gonna be so confused
They all came back too soon
Or maybe like me they’re used to it
From March all the way to June
If I could see the future I’d jump
But I can’t so I sit still
I try my best to not make a mess
Staring at my phone until
She brings me back into myself
Sometimes against my will
I can’t tell if I’m good or not
Will I ever be able to tell?
It’s crazy just how lucky I am
To have everything I do
Born this way and with something to say
And I was always given the room
To make the most of what I’ve got
Though I haven’t always done it
I don’t want to look back at my life
And think oh yeah I won it
Hi there! If you're new around these parts, welcome. I'm Jonathan Mann. I write a song every single day, and I've been doing that for the last 9+ years.
Through sick days, tired days, days with no inspiration, the death of my grandma, the breakup of a 5 year long relationship, the marriage to my wife and the birth of our son - I've never missed a day. This is my life's work.
