"One Less Mouth" lyrics

Life has got so fast, I think my mind is slowing down
Level land is hitting home on a record spinning 'round
I'm out here up on L.A. looking out down there below
A hundred million people that I'm never gonna know

I can't seem to focus on one thing here at a time
Thank God that I can sing a bit and sometimes even rhyme
These birds are way too loud, can't hardly hear the hammered nail
When was the last time someone sent a letter in the mail

Goodbye my love I've seen enough I don't intend to stay
The things you've shown the world are things I'd never give away
But there you are and here I go just like it ought to be
One less cup to fill back up and one less mouth to feed

Tried my best to be alone but it just don't fit the brand
You can catch me at the bar on Mondays sitting with the band
I'll seal my fate on judgement day whenever that's to be
I'd like to live forever but forever ain't up to me

Goodbye my love I've seen enough as I don't intend to stay
The things you've shown the world are things I'd never give away
Oh there you are and here I go, just like it ought to be
One less cup to fill back up and one less mouth to feed

Somehow I still sing all those songs we used to love so much
Now all I got's an empty house and someone else's stuff
The holidays are soon to come, they're just around the bend
Right here and now my final bow, we've made it to the end

Goodbye my love I've seen enough as I don't intend to stay
The things you've shown the world are things I'd never give away
There you are, here I go, just like it ought to be
One less cup to fill back up and one less mouth to feed
One less cup to fill back up and one less mouth to feed
