all roads lead some where why not come with me on mine i got a pocket full of dimes a closet full of dreams pretty songs in my mind ready to go...ready to go all roads lead some where why not come with me on mine i got a fist full of pride a big toe dip in hope a past known for trying that's why my future keep's going i got heart known for bleeding baby and a sleeve that calls it home like a bird i'm know for rising early ready to go all roads lead some where why not come with me on mine

you kept me hanging all the years with the words you chose your true intentions are still blurry how much you really loved me well that'll i'll never know some things are just better left unsaid so before you go you ought to know that if i can part your company then there's nothing in this world i can't achieve and it seems like once i realized this i could see things are never quite as bad as they seem and i think i'll be ok i wasn't above begging i wasn't above pleading it was obvious this hold you had on me wasn't healthy still you had no problems taking advantage i must be seriously ill cause the further you pushed me the closer i felt before you walk away i need to say if i can part your company then there's nothing in this world i can't achieve and it seems like once i realized this i could see things are never quite as bad as they seem as it seems... so before you leave you best believe if i can part your company then there's nothing in this world i can't achieve and it seems like once i realized this i could see things are never quite as bad as they seem and i think i'll be ok
