Oysters

So here's where I' ve erred; here's what I' ve done.
Found a crack in my glass, but it was pretty half-empty to start.
So out with the old, and bring on the new.
Because to fix what I had was a pretty hard thing to do.

But she said that I found a lot of oysters these days.
Yes, I found a lot of oysters these days.
And with all comes a pearl and a pretty hard shell to break.
Well, I found a lot of oysters these days.

I look to the sun, but I'm closing my eyes.
Though my mother had said it, I was quick to look into the sky.
And all through the pain, I swore that I'd try.
And with big sunglasses, she stood there firm by my side.
