"The Late Show" lyrics

If I get my act together
I could finally have a good day
There's some ties need to sever
And some friends I want to tether
Till I'm lying in the grave

If I bought a better mirror
I'd see me as a real man
My face would become clearer
I could grow a better beard
And I wouldn't ever feel sad

If I let go
Of my ego
I'd be just like all my heroes

Write a good song
Play the late show
Jimmy laughs at my jokes

Then I'll die young
In a mansion
And I'd it all alone

If I let go
If I let go

Now that I pieced it all together
Things are looking upside down
I think I misremembered
Just a lil off-center
Close to falling out

Been staring at the sun
Been doing it for weeks
The answer's right here
But I'm too fucking dumb
To see it's right in front of me

If I let go
Of my ego
I'd be just like all my heroes

Write a good song
Play the late show
Jimmy laughs at my jokes

Then I'll die young
In a mansion
And I'd it all alone

If I let go
If I let go

So I'll buy more shit, it makes me happier
If I push it all down, well, that would have to work
And if you loved me more
I wouldn't still be in love with her

So I let go
Of my ego
Became just like all my heroes

Wrote a good song
Played the late show
Went exactly how I planned it to go

When I let go
'Cause I let go
I just let go
So I let go
