I broke free on a Saturday morning

I put the pedal to the floor

headed north on mills avenue

and listened to the engine roar

my broken house behind me

and good things ahead

a girl named Cathy

wants a little of my time

six cylinders underneath the hood

crashing and kicking

aha!

listen to the engine whine

i am going to make it through this year

if it kills me

i am going to make it though this year

if it kills me

i played video games in a drunken haze

i was seventeen years young

hurt my knuckles punching the machines

the taste of scotch rich on my tongue

and then Cathy showed up

and we hung out

trading swigs from a bottle

all bitter and clean

locking eyes

holding hands

twin high maintenance machines

i am going to make it through this year

if it kills me

i am going to make it though this year

if it kills me

i drove home in the California dusk

i could feel the alcohol inside of me hum

pictured the look on my stepfather's face

ready for the bad things to come

i down shifted

as i pulled into the driveway

the motor screaming out

stuck in second gear

the scene ends badly

as you might imagine

in a cavalcade of anger and fear

there will be feasting and dancing

in Jerusalem next year

i am going to make it through this year

if it kills me

i am going to make it though this year

if it kills me

I shit you not, I had a dream about hearing this band from some locals in my dream when journeying through to my home in Maine. Then in my dream, when finally making it after so many ephemeral trips before in my dreams, my family told me there was a goat living under a tree hiding from a witch/beast. With the help of my family and myself, we killed her, and freed this cute-as-fuck white goat who runs toward me telling me his/her story. Finally, everything felt right as we peered over upon a setting sun in the horizon over the tops of pine trees across the lake.I wake up and immediately had to youtube this band, and by happenstance stumbled upon this song (I listened to this band less then 4 times). And it all made sense to me I suppose. This has been the hardest year of my life, working abroad, and almost killing myself (twice, unfortunately) because of my bipolar disorder and the depression linked to it, which was severely exacerbated by my tyrant of a boss who is a definite narcissist (threatening to fire me when I was broke for no reason other than to ruin my life for her own enjoyment, despite myself having the highest test scores within the school system). But I fucking fought through my problems, sought a doctor, kicked as much ass as I could before putting this shithole of a school behind me, where now I can go home. (JOKE IS ON THEM, because now they cannot find a stable teacher to replace me after forcing me into resignation. I love those kids to death, and its unfortunate it has to be this way. I digress). Anyway, There isn't a point in sharing this, but after hearing this song, I can't help but smile and wanting to share the synchronicity of this moment. I'm sure many listen to this song, looking for push onward and persevere beyond any turmoil within their lives, yet still feel uncertain. Well you're gonna make it; just keep on fighting. If I fucking did, you can too. Keep pushing forward and never lose your fire.

There are two kinds of people who sing along with this song: people whose voices catch in their throats as they sing "There will be feasting and dancing," and liars.
