Uphill

Lying here half awake, though I got nothing in the tank

It's only the caffeine in my system I've to thank

Another night, another week, another month and then

I will go uphill again

I've been rolled like a wave bouncing up over the shore

Slipped like a letter someone slid under a door

I know better days are coming, but I couldn't tell you when

But I will go uphill again

I will go uphill again

This year is living in my bones, it's carved into my face
