|
The blood that run your veins |
|
Of all that you are made |
|
It didn't start with you |
|
As much as you would like it to |
|
The path they set you on |
|
Your battles lost and won |
|
The fakin' and the show |
|
And all you thought you wanted |
|
All them things you think you want [CHORUS] |
|
And in the land where all are mourning |
|
You hear the band you hear them call |
|
You can be happy |
|
You can be happy |
|
You stood up on that hill |
|
You thought you'd had your fill |
|
Didn't want no pedestal |
|
But mark my words you will |
|
You heard your story told |
|
You felt you were getting old |
|
You thought it time to go |
|
But you couldn't find no share of gold |
|
That set you back on down the road [CHORUS] |
|
So take your hopes and woes |
|
Take your bruised ego |
|
Light a fire here |
|
Where the air is clear |
|
Or take your sorrow, man |
|
To your selfish land |
|
Run your poor mouth there |
|
See if they care [CHORUS] |
