lyrics

The road less traveled always brings me down
I get lost on my way out of this town
Always searching for what went wrong
With the help of a beat up rock and roll song
I asked my family I asked my friends
You did it once but can you do it again
Can you do it again

Give up the pills give up the ghost
Give up the pills that hurt you the most
Climb a mountain or dig a ditch
Ignore the pain or scratch that itch
I might ask why but I’ll never ask when
You did it once can you do it again
Can you do it again

Once upon a time forever young
A slippery slope or a slippery tongue yea yea

I might ask why but I’ll never ask when
You did it once can you do it again
Can you do it again

It’s in the retelling that the story grows
Where it stops nobody knows
While that storm it rolls up fast
We survey the damage only when they pass
We survived the 7 deadly sins
We did it once but can we do it again
Can we do it again

We’re all liars in retrospect
From what the fuck to what the heck
