Lyrics:

I kissed the kids at noon
And stumbled out the room
I caught a cab, ran up a tab on Seventh and Flower
Beth's recital, I had to run
Missed my son's graduation
Punched the Nichols boy for taking his seat
He gets all that anger from me

Still things could be much worse
Natural disasters
On the evening news
Still things could be much worse
We've still got our health
My paycheck in the mail

I promised to my wife and children
I'd never touch another drink as long as I live
But even then, it sounds so soothing
This will blow over in time
This will all blow over in time

I'm just an honest man
Provide for me and mine
I give a check to tax-deductible charity organizations
Two weeks paid vacation
Won't heal the damage done
I need another one

Still things could be much worse
Natural disasters
On the evening news
Still things could be much worse
We've still got our health
My paycheck in the mail

I promised to my wife and children
I'd never touch another drink as long as I live
But even then, it sounds so soothing
To mix a gin and sink into oblivion

I promised to my wife and children
That accident left everyone a little shook up
But at the meetings I felt so empty
This will blow over in time
This will all blow over in time

Mmm, a da da da da da
A da da da da da
A da da da da whoa
A da da da da da
A da da da da da
A da da da da whoa

A da da da da da
A da da da da da
A da da da da whoa
A da da da da da
A da da da da da
A da da da da whoa

Made the same promise, 2 years, 6 months sober today. Never going back.

I absolutely adore both the dead notes and the fact they’re off key… just works so well.

One of my absolute favorite Cold War Kids song. Holy shit you guys slayed it. Holy SHIT.

Amazing! Simply Beautiful. Thank you for singing about something that is not beautiful or amazing. Thank you for singing about something that is heartbreaking and gripping. The harmonizing of you guys singing the chorus shook me to my core. I immediately started Reminiscing on the last three and a half years of my life. I almost lost my wife daughter and unborn son to alcoholism. Life is hard and it's even harder when your plastered everyday. Fortunately I chose my family over the bottle. So in conclusion I would like to personally thank you guys for covering this song and every aspect that went into it. You now have a life-long fan and my name is Dan.

Put the bottle down one faithful day, it was empty as it always tended to be. How heavy a weight had been lifted, to be able to hold the world again, not glass in one hand and life in the other, but the world as a whole; grasped firmly in both hands.

Talking about true struggles and as someone in recover it means so much to hear another’s struggle. It’s hard out there! Truly amazing, so heartfelt and beautiful!

This is probably my favorite cover you guys have done. HOly shit this is deep. I love you guys, and Scotts voice perfectly matches the emotion that Nathan Willett had in his.
And yet, your version has a completely different emotional feel. Kudos brothers

This is very intense... Wow ! Love the instrumentals ... I'm not sure if this is a song of HOPE or of PERSONAL Torment, Agony and Triumph...

Love this cover album! I dig this version better than the CWK's version. I don't know why but it feels more visceral.
