Embracing Facts Testo

How the hell could I have been so dumb?
As an outspoken man with a well sharpened tongue,
I sorta thought I'd start to change with age
but I've just stayed the same.

Call me crazy, but today I'm embracing facts:
a past full of mistakes which I can't take back.
It's a cryin' shame
That I'd drag this out just to pass the blame.
How the hell could I have been so weak?
A plush backseat flips my switch on to speak and says
"Your common sense will never pay the rent."
Harsh words from a path that I seldom choose.
I'll scream at the wall as you sing the blues
To the minor chords that you and I simply can't afford
