Back On My Feet

I've been angry
And I have strayed
I said words I never thought that I could say
And you were sad and sweet
Like a Wilco song
But I'll be back up on my feet before too long

You could say you wanted me
If I said it first
Words rang hollow
And the emptiness became a thirst
Now I could drink those words
They would make me strong
I'd be back up on my feet before too long
I'd be back up on my feet before too long
Before too long

If you'd met me now
You never would have stuck around
No, you never would have stuck around

So I will lay me down
By the salty sea
And let the water pull the sand
Over my body
To wash me clean
Like a river stone
And I'll be back up on my feet
Before you know it
Yeah, I'll be back upon my feet
Before too long

Back on my feet
Back up on my feet
Back on my feet
Back on my feet
Back on my feet
