Lyrics This Year

I broke free on a Saturday mornin'
I put the pedal to the floor
Headed north on Mills Avenue and listened to the engine roar
My broken house behind me and good things ahead
A girl named Cathy wants a little of my time
Six cylinders underneath the hood crashin' and kickin'
Oh oh listen to the engine whine
I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me
I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me
I played video games in a drunken haze
I was seventeen years young
Hurt my knuckles punchin' the machines
The taste of scotch rich on my tongue
And then Cathy showed up and we hung out
Tradin' swigs from a bottle
All bitter and clean
Lockin' eyes
Holdin' hands
Twin high maintenance machines
I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me
I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me
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
I downshifted as I pulled into the driveway
The motor screamin' out
Stuck in second gear
The scene ends badly as you might imagine in a cavalcade of anger and fear
There will be feastin' and dancin' in Jerusalem next year
I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me
I am gonna make it through this year if it kills me
