Kitchen Sink
a song about tangible success, and giving yourself credit for the "small" things
This song was inspired by a conversation with one of my best friends last weekend. A specific sentence that she said inspired the whole thing and that specific sentence is in the song - verbatim. I’ll let you guess what it is :)
You can read the lyrics below, or listen to me sing the song as a paid subscriber!
Can’t see where my life is headin’
But I can see the bottom of my sink
And that might not mean much to you
But Lord it means everything to me
And I cannot remember
The last day that I went without a drink
But today I did my dishes
And that’s gonna have to be enough for me
I think myself in circles
As I sit here sprawled on the couch
I have all these great ambitions
Sometimes I even write a few down
And I cannot remember
The last time that I believed in me
But today I did my dishes
And that’s gonna have to be enough for me
I know I’m working hard
And sometimes I can see it
They say I’m doing fine
Maybe one day I’ll believe it
This is a great big world
And I am just one girl
I wanna do everything
And nothing at all
I’m gonna try to work on
Not feeling so small
I’m gonna try to work on
Thinking I can have it at all
But for now I’ll clean my closet
Do my dishes
Sing this song
Can’t see where my life is headin’
But I can see the bottom of my sink
That might not mean much to you
But Lord it means everything to me
