2010 Was a Bad Year (Albert’s Song) lyrics

Nights like this are what I miss
The most about this place
Isn’t that a shame?
Everything I need is right here
Between the trees
You’re all already with me
My car, my guitar, and some friends
God knows I don’t have many of them

But we swore that we’d change the world with peace
Bit by bit
But we quickly learned that only the young and sheltered
Believe that sh*t

All the time I feel so overwhelmed
I want to make a difference in this world
But my face, it tells
Another story
This isn’t for me
I should give up
I’ll never live up
To those long dead heroes we looked up to
And if it’s just between me and you
There’s nothing I can do

You put your faith in me but it’s a waste you see
I’m stuck at the bottom of the hill
I don’t want make you mad or let you down
But I know I will
