Relief

Don't need much to get by these days
Just wake me up and put me to bed
Won't try to get lost in the haze
Won't try to live in my head

Don't want anymore
The money won't get me what I need
It's enough to feel useful instead of feeling sore
That brings the relief

Even when it's cloudy, the sun is out
Even when the storm is here, I don't have to run
Even if I'm losing, it's not a rout
Even if I'm alone, doesn't mean I'm shunned

So just get me through the now
And I won't worry about the later
If you can show me how
Maybe down the road I'll return the favor
