It's Been A Bad Year

from Adaptation by That Dream Was Our Life

/

lyrics

I thought our days would be full of friends
That there was no time to see
I guess we were blessed or just lucky
All of that seems so distant now
Beyond our senses & grief
I didn't cry until July

Did you see heaven above or was there paradise below
Does it feel a dream or is it just oblivion
All I know
It's been a bad bad year

Kicking back at the Waffle House
Your laugh was louder than air
It was zero degrees & the bay was frozen
New Years spent in Connecticut
Chasing everyone's kids
Just stay awake until the ball drops

Did you see heaven above or was there paradise below
Does it feel a dream or is it just oblivion
All I know
It's been a bad bad year

Crying faces on laptop screens
I'm tired of stabs in the dark
The half-measures of normalcy
Could never fill our hearts

Did you see heaven above or was there paradise below
Does it feel a dream or is it just oblivion
All I know
It's been a bad bad year
