SHIFTING DOWN A GEAR
Tonight, I'm starting to feel the years
But thankful that I'm still sitting here
No there’s nothing wrong with that
There's nothing new to fear
There's nothing wrong with
Shifting down a gear
Yes, I'm older
A little more slower
I have less to prove to you
Don't need to know her
A little more sober
I got miles on my shoes
You drink whiskey
I'll drink beer
A little less cloudy, a little more clear
Volume is lower
Mornings are colder
Have my coffee how I choose
Less time for told you so’s
It’s all about who you know
Now there are offers I refuse
You drink whiskey
I'll drink beer
A little less cloudy, a little more clear
Tonight, I'm starting to feel the years
But thankful that I'm still sitting here
No there’s nothing wrong with that
There's nothing new to fear
There's nothing wrong with
Shifting down a gear
No time for regrets
Do not retrace your steps
I’ve done more for less but made it through
Gaining my 2nd sight
Trade darkness for the light
Close enough in life, grenades, and horseshoes
Tonight, I'm starting to feel the years
But thankful that I'm still sitting here
No there’s nothing wrong with that
There's nothing new to fear
There's nothing wrong with
Shifting down a gear
OUR SOULS CAN’T BE SAVED
We were full time dreamers with part time jobs
Spending like kings while living like slobs
Our beds can’t be unmade and our souls can’t be saved
We’re never gonna fade if we burn today
We’re never gonna fade if we burn today
We were rock ‘n’ roll soldiers with scars on our arms
Killing ourselves slowly by drowning in charm
Our debts can’t be unpaid and our souls can’t be saved
We’re never gonna trade all those memories we made
We’re never gonna trade all those memories we made
Oh no, where do we go?
Left our marks on the rambling road
The lightning missed and we lost control
Oh no, where do we go?
We were living off girlfriends and Jack ‘n’ Cokes
Cocaine from our good friends and everyone smoked
We all acted like stars when we played the corner bar
They come up and tell you that you’re gonna make it far
They come up and tell you that you’re gonna make it far
We were driving towards death and surprised when we made it
That feeling of insecurity, will we finally shake it?
All the blood we gave, still our souls can’t be saved
We’re never gonna fade if we burn today
We’re never gonna fade if we burn today
Oh no, where do we go?
Left our marks on the rambling road
The lightning missed and we lost control
Oh no, where do we go?
Cut to five and dime weekends in half-filled rooms
Our bodies started breaking down, our brains are going too
Our hearts are unafraid,
