Little Less

from That's Rough by Michael Howard

/

lyrics

D
Had a couple good days
G D
This too shall pass
G
Gotta get to work but I’m running out of gas

D G D
Why’s it called a freeway, doesn’t seem that free to me
G D Em
Its the rope around the places that we eat and fuck and sleep
Bm A G
I’d like a little less from life now if you please

When I’m driving, i keep the radio off, i ask a lot of nothing and wait for a response
And in the silence, i wonder why i’m here, and the meaning comes from wondering as much as anywhere
And I feel sorry, not for what i’ve done, but the distance in the eyes of almost everyone
It’s more than i can bear

I’d like a little less from life, i changed my mind
Thought I wanted to get better, thought i wanted to be kind
But all i wanted, was to seem like someone that
A stranger couldn’t help themselves but to ask
What the hell did you just take? I want to feel like that.

I prayed for wisdom. Now I want to take it back
I need another good idea like i need a heart attack
I want the mind to understand before the body acts
But there’s no service here and no one carries paper maps
What the hell did we just take? I want to feel like that.

Vocal break

Now when I’m driving I keep the radio off
And I ask a lot of nothing, sometimes I’m getting a response
It’s not all silence, there’s a little something else
It’s not much but it helps when i don’t know how to act.
What the hell did I just take? It kind of feels like that.
