about

If there's something about the song that isn't readily available in the song itself then just ask and I'd be happy to answer.

lyrics

I think I had a problem
Conveying what I meant
I’m out of touch and talk too much
About the ways I spent
Time on my mistakes
But I will not repent
No, I’m ready to be happy
Yeah, I think that’s what I meant
(He thinks that’s what he meant)

When I go 6am
Down to 10pm
I won’t mind that I’m behind
Because I’ll come back again
And when I finally do
Everyone will see
That what I meant is what I meant
And that’s to be happy
(That’s to be happy)

And just as soon
You’ll say it’s all hot air
So I’ll fill this balloon with it and fly out over there
And I’ll boast about the journey no one else had ever dared
(No one else had ever dared)

I was stuck in a rut
Couldn’t figure out just what
Was causing me, this misery
That kicked me in the butt
So I made my resolution
Yeah I’m placing a bet
Cashed all the chips, did nondescripts
And I bought myself a ticket
(Bought himself ticket)

And just as soon
You’ll say it isn’t fair
But if you feel marooned
Then you and I can share
A one-way ticket out of here and start a life out there
We’ll start a life out there
Start a life, start a life
Out there

Evan McPherson - tambourine (hell of a guitar player, so that tambourine credit might be confusing for those of you who know him. No, I did not particularly showcase the tambourine in the mix, but he still deserves the credit)
