This Year (Jordan Lake Sessions Volume 2) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I broke free on a Saturday morning
I put the pedal to the floor
I headed north on Mills Avenue
And I listened to the engine roar

[Verse 2]
My broken house behind me and good things ahead
A girl named Cathy wants a little of my time
Six cylinders underneath the hood crashing and kicking
Aha, listen to the engine whine

[Chorus]
I am gonna make it through this year
If it kills me
I am gonna make it through this year
If it kills me

[Verse 3]
I played video games in a drunken haze
I was seventeen years young
Hurt my knuckles punching the machines
The taste of Scotch rich on my tongue, yeah, ha-ha

[Verse 4]
And then Cathy showed up and we hung out
Trading swigs from a bottle, all bitter and clean
Locking eyes, holding hands
Twin high maintenance machines

[Chorus]
I am gonna make it through this year
If it kills me
I am gonna make it through this year
If it kills me

[Verse 5]
I drove home in the California dusk
I could feel the alcohol inside of me hum
Pictured the look on my stepfather's face
Ready for the bad things to come

[Verse 6]
I downshifted as I turned into the driveway
The motor screaming out, it was stuck in second gear
The scene ends badly as you might imagine
In a cavalcade of anger and fear
Well, there will be feasting and dancing
In Jerusalem next year

[Chorus]
I am gonna make it through this year
If it kills me
I am gonna make it through this year
If it kills me, if it kills me, if it kills me

[Outro]
Ha
Yeah
Let's do "Spent Gladiator 2" (Alright)
