Words and music by Johan Gille

lyrics

They said I couldn’t stick around
Work was slow and hard to find
So I packed my bags and went to check
that my girl and child were safe & sound
It blew my mind that I could lose
that calm that’s so damn hard to find
Where I could be at peace with life,
but without a job, what can a man do?

It might hurt
Yeah, but it won’t get me down
It might hurt
Yeah I know,
but I’ll be fine somehow

She said she couldn’t understand
how I could have the nerve to ask
“Time destroys and nothing lasts
if you don’t support it now & then”
She said she’d tried to wait for me,
but then one day it all came down
to having someone in the house
to keep them safe, with food to eat
