Back On My Feet

I've been angry
And I have strayed
I said words i never thought that I could say
You were sadly sweet
Like an old bar song (or a Wilco song)
But I'll be back up on my feet before too long
You could say you wanted me
If I said it first
Words rang hollow
And the emptiness became a thirst
Now I could drink those words
And they would make me strong
I'd be back up on my feet before too long
I'd be back up on my feet before too long
Before too long
If you'd met me now
You never would have stuck around
No, you never would have stuck around
So I will lay me down
By the salty sea
And let the water pull the sand over my body
To wash me clean
Like a river stone
And I'll be back up on my feet before too long
Yeah, I'll be back up on my feet before too long
Back on my feet
Back up on my feet
Back on my feet
Back on my feet
