Up From Here

I thought by now you'd probably know me
Throw your loose change down the wishing well
Expressionless as always
Well it's so hard to tell
You have always been the talker
I have always had the better ear
Retrospective suspect, still it's been a heck of a year

Well I'm sorry about the message
You don't have to lean on fear
Don't have to lay your head low down
Things are looking up from here

It's funny 'cause once I thought I couldn't catch you
I must be too much to pass right through
You butterfly left, you butterfly right
I was with you the whole damn night
Just another taming of the shrew

I have always had this tragic side
Perhaps it's time I let it be
'Cause I can't seem to put my finger on what's
Turning into me

I was ambushed at the corner
I was French at dien bien phu
I was everybody else's point of view
We did everything we could
Knock on wood it never felt so good

Well I'm sorry about the message
You don't have to lean on fear
Don't have to lay your head low down
Things are looking up from here
