A Love Song, Finally

Here is a song I've been working on called "Right."  Lyrics below.  Enjoy it, my lovely friends.


Right


I'm terrified I'm running out of steam
I don't have the energy to even be me
I know that's bullshit
But I can't get rid of it


There's ugly, angry secrets in here
And every word I say just falters
And I veer into my own ridiculous place
But I can't get this off my face


Just the fact that I get to see you tonight
And after that, every night for the rest of my life
It just feels like I've won, finally
It just feels right


I got friends telling me the worst kind of news
Fighting tooth and nail just to beat off the blues
They've got all kinds of problems, and no one to solve them


I got an ache in my heart for the people I love
And a circus in my head that I am still the star of
But I'm trying now, yeah, I'm shutting it down


Just the fact that I get to see you tonight
And after that, every night for the rest of my life
It just feels like I've won, finally
It just feels right


After decades of misbehavior
I know I'm not owed any kind of savior


Just the fact that I get to see you tonight
And after that, every night for the rest of my life
It just feels like I've won, finally
It just feels right.

Right by Annie Stela
