The Truth About Iowa

Standing at a crossroad snow still falling down
Misery loves company and a companion could be found
What started as a conquest had ended in defeat
The way we were the things we said and all i won’t repeat
New years eve ain’t all its cracked up to be
I’ve seen the best and heard the worst and everything in between
18hrs is such a long
Long time and the sting of painful words destroy us inside
Our silence can say so much and our words pack a painful punch
Nothing can take away the memories of that day and i was so sure that we’d fade
away
Fade away
Adversity makes us stronger
So can we make this last a little longer?
Can we put aside the competition that resides in all of us, in all of us?
I know it’s in me and i’ve seen it in you
But i set my sights on seeing this one through
I am gonna see it through
I know that we’ll never fully agree
But it’s worth my time and its worth the risk because this is family
