Well I bit on my lip,

I'm a big man for thinking just so.

But you came in the middle
and you fell in my hands
Oh a, wonderful woman and
an average man.

I will still teach my kids pride

In all the reasons to come,

And it grows, and it grows 'til it
C#m
all becomes nothing

And nothing is left as you know.

with broken eyes and salted ears

Com plaining 'bout the weather like

Through all the noise and self abuse,
E
C#m
you waited for your fill of truth
A

Oh I'm terrified I'll achieve nothing at all.)
