ryan kopperud - patient zero lyrics
[verse 1: ryan kopperud]
i’ve been lightin’ candles for my memory, light to move forward
it ain’t right to write the epilogue, before the foreword
gotta persevere, i ain’t a future seer
the outcome won’t be outdone by now and here
clouds might be deep, i’ll wait for ‘em to clear
i earned my sunrise, last night lasted a year
claim no land, own no thing, do no wrong
push the bad back, write another song
as long as i got breath, bic is hittin’ the page
i waited through enough to know i’m built to make a way
slate the shot, i’m rockin’ the boat
knock another one back, try to block out the ghosts
the grass is always green, why pick a side
i like the view from the fence, i’m walkin’ the line
dependin’ on the day, i’m liable to change views
wasn’t lyin’, i am large, i contain multitudes
no promises, the bottom what honest is
consequences make sense when we find the cause of this
world we live in, i’m soakin’ up the all the wisdom
i can get in before the fiddle, then fat lady’s singin’ like
[chorus: the van gobots]
this is the life, even when it doesn’t seem it
gimme one more night, then i promise i’ll be leavin’
when there’s nothing to believe in
give me one good reason to go home
to go home, ’cause
this is the cage i’m livin’ in
look what they’re feeding me
just the same old lies, please skip the long goodbyes
live by the hour and left time to balance it, oh
[verse 2: ryan kopperud]
in it to win it, out to be about it
the weakest one in the room is usually the loudest
somedays it’s me, gladly punch drunk
with my whiskey pickled blood, never stoppin’ after one
but i’m not a walkin’ party, i’m hardly with optimism
when the mission ain’t make a livin’, just find a pot to p+ss in
payin’ attention makes a h+ll of a weight
thank god our fathers taught us how to self+medicate
and while i’m at it, pop, i think i understand it now
how this place can feel heavy, enough to make us fall
i always got my family, you don’t have to understand me
i promise, i’ve had my share of hard landings
my money where mouth is, i’m talkin’ it out
two cents to make sense of what this place is all about
writin’ myself a letter, makin’ an honest effort
to spend my days well and wake up a little better, like
[chorus: the van gobots]
this is the life, even when it doesn’t seem it
gimme one more night, then yeah, i promise i’ll be leavin’
when there’s nothing to believe in
give me one good reason to go home
to go home, ’cause
this is the cage i’m livin’ in
look what they’re feeding me
just the same old lies, please skip the long goodbyes
live by the hour and left time to balance it, oh
because my home got bigger and whether it’s loosely triggered
yeah, they’re trying to take me out
i don’t wanna go, yeah, so let’s figure it out
it’s you and me or it’s only me, yeah
[outro: ryan kopperud]
i’ve been lightin’ candles for my memories, and light to move forward
it ain’t right to write the epilogue, before the foreword
gotta persevere, ‘cause i ain’t a future seer
the outcome won’t be outdone by now and here
