Everybody's hopes had died when you were crawling on the floor.
|
No one could keep hope alive when all they saw were wounds and woes.
|
They remember when it went south, one instance when you're down--
|
dust had settled, you moved out of town.
|
You surrendered, then you found out...
|
|
It's a crap out, a dead man's hand, a blink in a stare;
|
It's lights out, an unmade plan, some bees in your hair.
|
|
Do we get no points for the try?
|
|
They will all testify that everything falls around you.
|
"Another good guy lost," is how they would describe you.
|
¡°Too bad what could have been...¡±
|
You tuned out and got up again.
|
Pretended not to care. Remembered not to care.
|
|
I heard what they sold you; don't let it hold you.
|
You can have what you want now.
|
You need to want what you have.
|
|
We need no points for the try.
