My Self

I'm getting older now

I've been feeling it for years

The clock keeps ticking on

It's getting loud enough to hear

But I'm making peace with it

Don't wanna waste was left on fear

I can be here now

Or get stuck between the gears

The coffee's cold, the day is nearly over

Yesterday lies dusty on a shelf

It sure is nice to have someone to talk to

God, I'm tired of listening to my self

I miss my dad today

I wish he was still around

There's so many things

I'd like to talk to him about

He had a joke for everything

And I could use a laugh right now

If he were here today

I hope that he'd be proud

The coffee's cold, the day is nearly over

Yesterday lies dusty on a shelf

It sure is nice to have someone to talk to

'Cause, God, I'm tired of listening to my self

Careful driving home

There's ice out on the road

It's hard to see at night

Don't be afraid to take it slow

Thanks for listening

I know you've gotta go

Just be safe tonight

When you get home, let me know

The coffee's cold, the day is nearly over

Yesterday lies dusty on a shelf

It sure is nice to have someone to talk to

God, I'm tired of listening to my self

God, I'm tired of listening to my self
