《Starting Over》歌词

[00:00:09] Those 3 plus years, I was so proud of

[00:00:15] And I threw ‘em all away for 2 Styrofoam cups

[00:00:18] The irony, everyone will think that he lied to me

[00:00:21] Made my sobriety so public, there’s no ****in’ privacy

[00:00:24] If I don’t talk about it then I carry a date

[00:00:26] 08-10-08, but now it’s been changed in every..

[00:00:30] When they put me in some box as a saint

[00:00:32] I never was, it’s the false prophet that never came

[00:00:35] And well they think that everything that I written has all been fake

[00:00:38] Oh well I’ll just take my slip to the grave

[00:00:40] Uh, what the **** are my parents gonna say?

[00:00:44] The success story that got his life together and changed

[00:00:47] And you know what pain looks like

[00:00:49] When you tell your dad you relapsed then look him directly into his face

[00:00:53] The seat on your shoulder’s the seemingly heavy weight

[00:00:55] I’ve been seeing tears like this on my girl

[00:00:58] In a while the trust that I once built’s been betrayed

[00:01:01] But I’d rather live telling the truth than be judged for my mistakes

[00:01:04] The falsely held up, given props, loved and praised

[00:01:07] I guess I gotta get this on the page

[00:01:09] Feeling sick and helpless, lost the compass where self is

[00:01:13] I know what I gotta do and I can’t help it

[00:01:16] One day at a time is what they tell us

[00:01:19] Now I gotta find a way to tell them

[00:01:26] God help ‘em

[00:01:27] One day at a time is what they tell us

[00:01:31] Now I gotta find a way to tell them

[00:01:33] We fell so hard

[00:01:37] Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost..

[00:01:46] I thought you’d go

[00:01:49] But you were with me all along.. along..

[00:01:57] And every kid that came up to me

[00:02:00] And said I was the music they listened to when they first got clean

[00:02:03] Now look at me, a couple days sober

[00:02:05] I’m fighting demons

[00:02:06] Back of that meeting on the east side

[00:02:08] Shaking tweakin', hope that they don’t see it

[00:02:10] Hope that no one is looking

[00:02:11] That no one recognizes that failure under that hoodie

[00:02:14] Was posted in the back with my hands crossed shooken

[00:02:17] If they call on me I’m passing, if they talk to me I’m booking out that door

[00:02:21] But before I can make it somebody stops me and says are you Macklemore?

[00:02:25] Maybe this isn’t the place or time

[00:02:27] I just wanted to say that if it wasn’t for other side I wouldn’t have made it

[00:02:31] I just look down at the ground and say thank you

[00:02:34] She tells me she has 9 months and that she’s so grateful

[00:02:37] Tears in her eyes, looking like she’s gonna cry.. ****!

[00:02:40] I barely got 48 hours, treated like I’m some wise monk

[00:02:44] I wanna tell her I relapsed but I can’t

[00:02:46] I just shake her hand and tell her congrats

[00:02:49] Get back to my car and I think I’m tripping yea

[00:02:51] Cause God wrote Otherside, that pen was in my hand

[00:02:54] I’m just a flawed man, man I ****ed up up

[00:02:57] Like so many others I just never thought I would

[00:03:00] I never thought I would, didn’t pick up the book

[00:03:03] Doin’ it by myself, didn’t turn out that good

[00:03:06] If I can be an example of getting sober

[00:03:09] Then I can be an example of starting over

[00:03:12] If I can be an example of getting sober

[00:03:15] Then I can be an example of starting over

[00:03:18] We fell so hard

[00:03:22] Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost..

[00:03:30] I thought you'd go

[00:03:34] But you were with me all along.. along..

[00:03:54] We fell so hard

[00:03:58] Now we gotta get back what we lost.. lost..
