Back in Five Lyrics

Lately all I've wanted is to see straight

But I cross my eyes and dot my Ts too late

Maybe I need glasses for the eye strain

But my vision's so much clearer yesterday

I say hey

Maybe it's a long way to heaven

And I probably couldn't get in if I tried

I often wonder if they know where I've been

And if that's enough to strike out when I die

'Cause God ain't on my horizon

That store's been boarded up for days

And there's a sign that reads Back in Five, but I go in anyway

Well, I had a friend once tell me 'bout the irony of life

How saints smoke cigarettes and sinners never die

How you can love until it hurts from the comfort of your walls

Things that make being a mess seem not so bad at all

So maybe it's okay to have a ball

So take down all the pictures of my past now

'Cause none of that shit matters anymore

And there's time to breathe and time to heal

And a reason to find out what's real

I just need to pick myself off the floor

'Cause God ain't on my horizon

That store's been boarded up for days

And there's a man telling me to live my life, so I listen

I wouldn't trade these ways 'til I die, 'cause they fit me

And there's a sign that reads Back in Five, but I go in anyway

Oh, I go in anyway
