Myself to Lose

I was only 17,
Life had me by the throat.
I could either stand or 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 had myself to lose.
There's so much moreI'd do it all again.
...
When I was 21,
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 pass.
If I kept it locked inside,
My pain wasn't all I'd hide.
...
I made my call I had myself to lose
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 To bet it all on you.
...
I made my call I had myself to lose
There's so much more I'd do it all again.
I made my call I had myself to lose
There's so much more I'd do it all again.
