lyrics

That Makes Two of Us (John)
Jason Sever/Brian Zambiasi

He said most days I'd wake up and cuss the sun
Only goal, to not run in to anyone
In a room that smelled like whiskey and last nights cigarettes
Weighed down in all my misery going over my regrets

Something in what he said sure struck a nerve
I was picturing myself in what I heard
I ain’t seen what he’s seen
But I bet I’ve had the same dreams
I was more like him with every word

That makes two of us
Both climbing up this mountain that God’s given us
One day at time one foot in front of the other
Talking thru it brother to brother
When you’re out there on your own
The devils tough but now I know John and John knows me
And that makes two of us

He noticed I was nervous said just breathe
I found comfort in the fact that we both bleed
He said I know my demons wars, man I’ve seen ‘em
But these days happy’s all I need
