lyrics

I’ve contemplated here for days
I counted each and every way
now should I go or should I stay
I’ve folded hands, I’ve knelt, I’ve prayed
I’ve trampled rows that you have laid
the best of plans that you have made
I stand in route to your parade
to find it’s all for nothing

I’ve often wondered why I’m here
just choke it up, don’t shed a tear
I’ll put my ear down close to hear
don’t let them get too far or near
be on your guard they smell the fear
look out the front door—leave the rear
just close your eyes—forget to steer
to find it’s all for nothing

it’s not your fault—this time—I’ve found that I’ve lost my defenses
it’s not your fault—this time—it seems that blame is really senseless

who counts the whys, the whats, the wheres
in the end I say ‘who cares’
be warned the crosses that you bare
sometimes the truth outweighs the dare
bullshit that all in love is fair
the wars between us quite a scare
at times take comfort in a chair
to find it’s all for nothing

and all that sits is prone to rust
the bent and broken surely cussed
ashes to ashes—dust to dust
a fate for all—for some a must
I’ve battled boredom—battled lust
I swore that all things will be just
discovered for all that which I fussed
a collective group of nothing

it’s not your fault—this time—I’ve found that I’ve lost my defenses
it’s not your fault—this time—it seems that blame is really senseless
