Gratitude

Written by Douglas Firestein

Been through a lot together
But there’s still so much to see
I shared a piece of myself with you
But you don’t know the real me

I have a tendency to brag
Declare how great i am
The pain brings us together
In a way nothing else can

I’m getting up there in years
The days pass by so fast
So let me express my gratitude
Before the chance has passed

Thank you for buying (buying)
My greatest hits (yeah)
Twelve songs about intense pain
A pleasure for your ears!

I added this bonus track
One that you’ve never heard
Consider this my “thank you”
Now we will head …

(Back, back, back to the verse)
Back to the verse baby!
(Back, back, back to the verse)
I know this song structure’s lazy

We handled the bad weather
Despite tension when we breathe
It wasn’t always easy, that’s true
But I never said i would leave

So here I plant my flag
Pledging myself to this land
Raising my fist to the sun
The glimmer of brass off my hand

I’m getting up there in years
I don’t move quite as fast
But I can still be motivated
To lodge my foot up a sucka’s ass

Thank you for buying (buying)
My greatest hits (yeah)
Twelve songs about intense pain
A pleasure for your ears!

I added this bonus track
One that you’ve never heard
Consider this my “thank you”
Now we will head …

(Back, back, back to the verse)
Back to the verse baby!
(Back, back, back to the verse)
I know this song structure’s lazy

It has been so long
I’ve tried so very hard
It’s the only thing I know
So I just keep moving on…..

ONE MORE TIME!!!!

Thank you for buying (buying)
