"I Woke Up Today" lyrics

"I Woke Up Today"

I woke up today
And felt my age
For the first time
In both my mind and body
And my thoughts are less of fitting in
And more of being a better man
But my overbite is getting worse
And my whole fucking face hurts

I woke up today
With the whimper not the pain
Of a school boy or a father
It seems those fifteen pounds I've lost since you left
Were the part of me that you loved most
And knew best
And I woke up today feeling my age
And the sum of everything I've ever done
Either I just got kicked in the teeth
Or time has changed me
