In the dead of night I think of all we’ve seen.
About the right and the wrong and all that falls between.
And no matter what I try I still can’t find a way.
To see that we’ve learned a thing along the way.
And the things that used to matter so much, they don’t matter to me now.
But I’ll be god damned if I don’t get out of these ditches somehow.
Now it’s you and me and we’ll see how this all goes.
Because the more that I learn it’s clear the less I know.
If you die in hate you know you’ll die alone.
Because the choices to see it through were all your own.
And the things that used to matter so much, they don’t matter to me now.
But I’ll be god damned if I don’t get out of these ditches somehow.
And the things that used to matter so much, they don’t matter to me now.
But I’ll be god damned if I don’t get out of these ditches somehow.
