Driving past an old friend's house, it's coming back
Found pieces of your broken heart where we used to hang
Your dad was never home
Left on your own, but you were still living proud
You never wanted love
Didn't know what it was, but that's all changing now

Oh, I'm getting by and getting old
Never hearing from the horse's mouth
I know, I'll bat an eye and never know
How you feel or where you're going now
'Cause I know
I missed, I miss, I missed it all
I missed, I miss, I missed it all
I missed, I miss, I missed it all

Riding through this town at night, man, it's freezing
And you're facing all of it alone while you're bleeding
And you fucked off the rope on every slope
that you were drifting down
If I had of known
I'd be on the phone and it wouldn't feel so loud

Oh, I'm getting by and getting old
Never hearing from the horse's mouth
I know, I'll bat an eye and never know
How you feel or where you're going now
'Cause I know
I missed, I miss, I missed it all
I missed, I miss, I missed it all
I missed, I miss, I missed it all

Gave a homeless man some money
To distract me from the way that I'm feeling
I give fuck all and comfort
Is all I've ever known, I'm not kidding
I'm upset and forcefully unfed a
lot of the things I wish I had've
But I'll lift you up, I'll lift you up if I can

Getting by and getting old
Never hearing from the horse's mouth
I know, I'll bat an eye and never know
How you feel or where you're going now
'Cause I know
I missed, I miss, I missed it all
I missed, I miss, I missed it all
I missed, I miss, I missed it all, oh
