Cheers
Broken Bonds and Bittersweet Cheers: Bryce George's Musical Journey
Lyrics
Hello lady, how ya been
Greeting and asking about the lady's well-being.
Things are fine, I'm doing great
Expressing that everything is fine and the singer is doing well.
I just wish that you were here
Expressing a desire for the lady's presence.
And we could have a beer, catch up on the shit we lost
Suggesting meeting over a beer to catch up on past events.
Talk it out and love real strong
Emphasizing the importance of communication and strong love.
I'm lonely in this empty pit, I can't stand my guilt
Feeling lonely and burdened by guilt.
All the things I've ever done, you would stay, I'd always run
Reflecting on past actions, acknowledging a pattern of running away.
You said "I'll stop you right there"
Recalling the lady's interruption and the end of their friendship.
You were my only friend
Expressing regret for losing the lady, emphasizing her significance.
Then you went and broke my heart
Revealing that the lady broke the singer's heart.
My life started to fall apart
Describing the aftermath of the heartbreak and life falling apart.
I Love you still, I must admit
Admitting ongoing love for the lady despite the pain.
The Hell, if I'll open that door again
Deciding not to reopen the door to that relationship.
Cheers was all she wrote
Repeating the phrase "Cheers was all she wrote" as a symbolic ending.
Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-I remember that night that it struck me hard like lightning
Recalling a night when realization struck with emotional intensity.
We always keep on fighting, and it's been getting old
Acknowledging persistent conflicts and their toll on the relationship.
They couldn't pay us to get along
Stating that they cannot be paid to reconcile.
I think we learned it from Ma' and Pa'
Suggesting a learned behavior of conflict from parents.
Ignorance is full of bliss
Reflecting on the bliss of ignorance.
Johnny Cash and foolish kids
Mentioning Johnny Cash and referencing foolish actions.
Ain't had much with my hand dealt pain like I've never felt
Describing personal experiences of intense pain.
All the sins that I've committed, and I keep on doing it
Acknowledging and repeating a pattern of committing sins.
Way down low in the dirty dump, explode our love like a shotgun
Depicting a low point in life, using explosive imagery.
Get high, float through the stars, forget about tomorrow
Escaping reality through substance use and avoiding tomorrow.
When I get home, it's "pack your shit"
Returning home to a strained relationship and packing belongings.
"I can't keep on doing this"
Expressing remorse but foreseeing a repetition of mistakes.
I'm Sorry, I won't do it again until next weekend hits
-Cheers was all she wrote
Repeating the symbolic phrase "Cheers was all she wrote."
Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Since you left me in the freezing cold
-I can't seem to find my way
-Said "you never do what you're told"
-I Gave you one last call
-I'm Tired and it's getting late
-I'll be going to bed soon
-Sing you a lullaby, kiss you goodnight
-Tuck your ass in bed good
-In the morning when the sun rose
-nowhere to be found except for little note
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
Continuation of the repetition of the symbolic phrase.
Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-I hate to say goodbye when I see the pain in your eyes
-The Pages just aren't adding up
-I think I've had enough
-As I waved goodbye, paper cut me like a damn knife
-Shame as I've never felt, as I hung my head
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
-Cheers was all she wrote
Finalizing the song with the repeated phrase and its emotional weight.
