Even if the song was written in 2005, it could still work lyrically (Hard life doesn't have to necessarily be about any type of rehab). Or the song could have started in 2005 and finished in 2014. Lyrically, it does feel like two songs in one... The lyrics do tell a story about someone missing someone deeply and the term "sleepyhead" is usually associated with a child.

Yeah he said it was from 2005 and he absolutely owned a computer. He probably wasn't too good at using it but I don't know why he wouldn't have one. I agree it feels disjointed. The bridge is all over the place with the gunnysack and boots. My best bet is the song was as is from 2005 and Lorenza added the strings for the release.
