Lyrics
Find another songThere is nothing left, I'm giving in
I can't win, I can't win
I've been wasting time, I won't pretend
No, not again, never again
I was fooled, how could I know that this was doomed to fall apart?
But the truth is hard to hold when time reveals a dark and heavy heart
A dark and heavy heart
I can bear the weight of this no more
I can't ignore the spite and scorn
And these bloodshot eyes are battle worn
Goddamn this war, can't take much more
But my dignity and pride are like a shield to this abuse
In the end I will survive, I've seen the darkest days
But now I'm free to choose
A life away from you
And though I hang by a thread
You'll never keep a good man down
And though you pushed to the end
It's time for me to stand my ground
Once you're betrayed, you never trust
And when it's from the ones you love
Nothing's the same, not as it was
Never as it was
There is nothing left, I'm giving in
I can't win, I can't win
And though I hang by a thread
You'll never keep a good man down
And though you pushed to the end
It's time for me to stand my ground
My better angels defend
My dignity at least for now
You'll never hurt me again
No, you won't keep this good man down
No, you won't keep this good man down
