Honey Cutt — Coasting

Gotta keep it in Gotta keep it hid I can’t break down in front of my mother I’ll sweep it under another rug Far away home wherever that is Packing all our bags, here we go again It’s always better somewhere else (It’s always better, it’s always better) Coasting on by, I’m alright alright Coasting on by, I’ll survive survive Never thought that it would come this Mom’s wondering where our next meal is I’m feeling helpless Locked in my room alone again Brother’s running off with all his friends To make it better somewhere else (It’s always better, it’s always better) Coasting on by, I’m alright alright Coasting on by, I’ll survive survive Tide is changing now, Brother stumbles in Eyes are blood shot red, Policemen walk him in Mother’s crying now, she can barely breathe Tide pulls me back in, to the waves again Coasting on by, I’m alright alright Coasting on by, I’ll survive survive
