Eyeshine - Myself To Lose lyrics

I was only seventeen Life had me by the throat I could either stand and fight Or lay in foolish lies I felt I had no choice Take what's left and make it count Bruised heart and broken skin I buried deep within I made my call I made my call I had myself to lose There's so much more There's so much more I'd do it all again When I was twenty-one Where was the promised fun? I had to grow up fast Knew then it would never last My world in plastic bags Shelf life would surely pa** If I kept it locked inside My pain wasn't all I'd hide I made my call I made my call I had myself to lose There's so much more There's so much more I'd do it all again Sometimes the closest ones to you Will leave you hanging Sometimes the place you least expect You'll find your answers Sometimes the things you think you own Will leave you empty Sometimes the place you least expect You'll find your treasure Now here I am A full grown man With wasted years Summed up in private tears I made the call I made the call To bet it all on you I made my call I made my call I had myself to lose There's so much more There's so much more I'd do it all again I made my call I made my call I had myself to lose There's so much more There's so much more I'd do it all again
