The Year Songtext
von Defiance, Ohio

Like how some words seem sinister like crow or Molokai
Some days seem dark though it is bright
If there′s a second chance for happenstance well I guess it is good we took a chance but sometimes I still don't feel right

And yeah we are all fallible
But these drunken nights only remind
That she was so right to sing

Just look at this mess we have made
Will you look at this mess we have made
Just look at this mess we have made
Will you look at this mess we have made

But they were so right to say


If we can do it here, you can do it anywhere
To talk is to brag and inaction comes from fear
If they can do that there, I could do it anywhere and I have no right to complain

Well we never played these chords quite like this and we never walked home this way
No we never walked home quite like this and we never played these chords this way

So, here′s to tonight
And spending it with you
Here's to this year I never thought I'd make it through
We lost a powerful symbol this year for standing for what you were born

She left a hard place to fill
And it just may fall upon you

If we can do it here, you can do it anywhere
To talk is to brag and inaction comes from fear
If they can do that there, I could do it anywhere
And I have no right to complain
