Listen Up

Nicole Atkins

Sometimes I feel like I ruined everything
Sometimes I feel like I'm slippin, slippin oh oh
The way my brain and body, reacts to every memory
Sometimes I feel like I'm slippim, slippin, oh oh

I should've listened up when I was young
But I always talked to much
Punch drunk on some bad luck
Hard times
You gotta make mistakes to know
It takes mistakes to grow
And now I know I gotta listen up
Oh listen up

When life got real, when life got real
I didn't know if I could handle it
Too many opinions
I don't wanna listen
But when my brain and body holds onto every memory
I need your help so please advise

I should've listened up when I was young
But I always talked to much

Punch drunk on some bad luck
Hard times
You gotta make mistakes to know
It takes mistakes to grow
And now I know I gotta listen up
Oh listen up

When I'm broken, when I'm stuck
Then I know I gotta listen up
When I'm lost when I'm in a rut
Then I know I gotta listen up
When I'm broken, when I'm stuck
Then I know I gotta listen up
When I'm broken, when I'm stuck
Ohhhhhhhhh

I should've listened up when I was young
But I always talked to much
Punch drunk on some bad luck
Hard times
You gotta make mistakes to know
It takes mistakes to grow
And now I know
And now I know
And now I know
When I gotta listen up
