2010 Was a Bad Year (Albert’s Song)
Nights like this are what I miss
The most about this place
Isn’t that a shame?
Everything I need is right here
Between the trees
You’re all already with me
My car, my guitar, and some friends
God knows I don’t have many of them
But we swore that we’d change the world with peace
Bit by bit
But we quickly learned that only the young and sheltered
Believe that shit
All the time I feel so overwhelmed
I want to make a difference in this world
But my face, it tells
Another story
This isn’t for me
I should give up
I’ll never live up
To those long dead heroes we looked up to
And if it’s just between me and you
There’s nothing I can do
You put your faith in me but it’s a waste you see
I’m stuck at the bottom of the hill
I don’t want make you mad or let you down
But I know I will
