Another song from my weakened heart
I’ll write it out, no one will hear it
Surely nothing more than a lesser work of art
We’ll all just ignore it
Jesus, I know this dispiriting road
So often I travel it alone
Stumbling on every stone
Mud on my hands, dirt in my eyes
I hear the same advice
But how many times can I try?
I’m giving in and that’s alright
I’ll take myself home and turn off the lights
Tell no one I’m sorry as I give up the fight
It ain’t worth it
I’ll sing these sad songs into the night
An erstwhile bandit of no delight
I stole no hearts, though I tried
I’m out of excuses for falling behind
Is there nothing I can have to hold?
I am searching in the dark
My beauty is fading & I’m nowhere close to old
But bit by bit I’ve fallen apart
Jesus, I know this dispiriting road
So often I travel it alone
Stumbling on every stone
Mud on my hands, dirt in my eyes
I hear the same advice
But how many times can I try?
I’m giving in and that’s alright
I’ll take myself home and turn off the lights
Tell no one I’m sorry as I give up the fight
It ain’t worth it
I’ll sing these sad songs into the night
An erstwhile bandit of no delight
I stole no hearts, though I tried
It ain’t worth it
I just want it to end, to retire
And throw laughter & comfort & love on the pyre
But I lack the strength that is required
It ain’t worth it
Don’t say it takes time or feign a smile
Just let me grieve and lay here a while
Jaded and broken from years of denial
Oh, I’ll fall behind
I'll fall behind
I'll fall behind
An erstwhile bandit of no delight
I stole no hearts, though I tried
I ain’t worth it
