[Verse 1]
Not, not a long time ago when I knew all the answers
I couldn't pace myself or raise my standards
But one can hope, you need to know
[Verse 2]
And then that one stayed one, one stayed one
Forgotten where I was, confusing it with another that I saw
You wouldn't like nothing tonight

[Chorus 1]

Thinking I should go, thinking I should go
I'm going too, too
[Chorus 3]
I got a crutch on you
Wishing there was something that I could do
I got a crutch on you
I've got a crutch on you, got a crutch on you
Wishing there was something that I could do
Got a crutch on you
