On My Feet

I am a man in great pain over great beauty
It's not easy standing on my feet these days
But you know I'm pretty sure that I've been through worse
And I'm sure I can take the hitI pushed the bed against the window today
So there'd only be one side
Well, it's a little less lonely that way
But I'm still dying insideWhen I wake up in the middle of the night
No one's gonna tell me I'll be alrightSo many thousands of my days that I don't remember
But a small handful of days that I do, I hold near to my heart
And one of those days that I remember well
Is about me and youWhen it's time to look back on my life
Most of it won't seem so important
The shit that matters and what I'll really miss
Is falling asleep with your arms around meWaking up, knowing that you're there
Making everything feel right in the worldPeople sleeping in hazmat suits
Taping up their windows
It's a mad, mad, mad, mad, mad, mad world
And it's hard to make any sense of itBut one thing I know that is true in this world
Is the love that I felt for youBeing on my feet these days
Well, it's a wonder I survive
No one taught me how to live or love
I'm running scaredOne sweet day I'll be back on my feet
And I'll be alrightI just got to get back on my feet
