lyrics
5 Stars
When I was young I had an easy life
a good sense of wrong and right
I had a family home
and a mother and father who cared
But when I see such a loveless face
falling from grace
it breaks my heart and it makes me think that
life isn’t fair
da da da …
Good night and good luck to you
I’ll raise my glass to the concept of understanding who I am
and how this can make a difference to the world
so complex each boy each girl
5 stars for asking a question and walking away from it all
When I saw the mug shots I found such a sad man
killing with his right hand
the same hand that held the child he had
with a woman
he never knew
Our credit cards are maxed out to the top
we start but never stop
it is a sign of the times when the people collectively feel
everything’s empty, nobody is satisfied
just look up to the sky
trust me there’s comfort in knowing the ceiling is endless
and now
everything you own means nothing to anyone
so simple, the moon, the sun
the process of learning that someone
thinks differently
to you
da da da…
Good night and good luck to you
I’ll raise my glass to the concept of understanding who I am
and how this can make a difference to the world
so complex each boy each girl
5 stars for asking a question and walking away from it all
When I was young I had an easy life
a good sense of wrong and right
I had a family home
and a mother and father who cared
But when I see such a loveless face
falling from grace
it breaks my heart and it makes me think that
life isn’t fair
da da da …
Good night and good luck to you
I’ll raise my glass to the concept of understanding who I am
and how this can make a difference to the world
so complex each boy each girl
5 stars for asking a question and walking away from it all
When I saw the mug shots I found such a sad man
killing with his right hand
the same hand that held the child he had
with a woman
he never knew
Our credit cards are maxed out to the top
we start but never stop
it is a sign of the times when the people collectively feel
everything’s empty, nobody is satisfied
just look up to the sky
trust me there’s comfort in knowing the ceiling is endless
and now
everything you own means nothing to anyone
so simple, the moon, the sun
the process of learning that someone

da da da…
Good night and good luck to you
I’ll raise my glass to the concept of understanding who I am
and how this can make a difference to the world
so complex each boy each girl
5 stars for asking a question and walking away from it all

Exceptional pop-rock, so consistently enjoyable that it's difficult to single out any one song as the album's best. A new favorite.
