lyrics

Livin' up to the aspirations of a younger man who wanted to be better
Is gettin' tough
'Cause I haven't been off work in five long months and I am tired
I know it's hard, I know
And sometimes I gotta just raise my head
And do the work that the world needs done
But sometimes I get lazy
and it's hard to admit it, but I gotta be honest

I don't always give a shit about the things that matter;
The people that I love
And that's real fucked up of me

Even when I've got the time I don't always use it wisely
I ought to call you up
And tell you how much you mean

Oh it's conceivable we'll change in time
We gotta wait and see
But maybe someday we'll be the people that we want to be

about

The Michael Character image

The Michael Character Boston, Massachusetts

It's political music, whatever. Based in Boston, MA. Absolutely willing to drive very far to play for you and five of your vaguely alternative friends in your combination kitchen/laundry room. Hit me up. I'm fully serious.
