Jann Arden Lyrics
"How Good Things Are"

I'm just living 'cause I'm obligated
I keep trying 'cause I've got to get it right
I pulled the trigger but I hesitated
lying here beside myself

I go to work 'cause I've got nothing going
I count the hours by the second in my head
The guy beside me's gonna drive me crazy
talkin' 'bout his children like that

I read the paper on the bus I ride home
I see the pictures of the people who are dead
and I imagine what it must be like to
just lay down all your debts

Everybody's gotta' find a god they love
Everybody's gotta' figure out the end
No one can tell you how to live forever
and who would want to in light of all of this

I go to work just to avoid tommorow
and I'm afraid that I am loosing all my hair
I told the doctor just to medicate the part
of me that still is here

I'm drinking water with my whiskey these days
I'm watching William beam himself around the stars
I call my mother every second Sunday
we talk about how good things are

We talk about how good things are

How good things are

We talk about how good things are

la la la la la la laa la la la
la la la la la la laaa laa la la la
la la la la la la laa la la la
We talk about how good things are

la la la la la la laa la la la
la la la la la la laa la la la
la la la la la la laa la la la
We talk about how good things are
