Lyrics - Just Getting By by Curtis Catie

I woke up this morning, blankets thick like my tongue
My thinking still tangled, couldn't get the words to come
Yesterday
I could fly, forgot to come back to the ground
You watched me in the sky, knowing how
I always circle down
And when
I'm just getting by, that's when
I see myself a fool
When
I'm just getting by, that's when
I thank god for you
There's snow on my windshield and
I'm hours from home
I crack my window open and think of you asleep and warm
I was just singing, forgot to come back to the ground
And with my ears ringing,
I'll try not to make a sound
And when
I'm just getting by, that's when
I see myself a fool
When
I'm just getting by, that's when
I thank god for you
I felt like crying to your half-asleep heart
No reason, really, sometimes
I just fall apart
It used to scare you when
I'd come back to the ground
Now you just hold me, knowing how
I always circle around
And when
I'm just getting by, that's when
I see myself a fool
When
I'm just getting by, that's when
I thank god for you
