Make this Count
You’re just about the only person I’ve ever talked to
About these things that are holding me down
You’ve witnessed all the furniture and walls that I walk through
To take me just as far as I can get from this crowd
I’ve been crawling through the days
Bound down by disarray
I won’t be shamed or damned
I’ll make this count, again
The rhythm and the rhyme of this climb that I dance to
Beats low to stir the soul
And everything I do I still continue to thank you
For stretching out a smile to break my fall
I’ve been crawling through the days
Bound down by disarray
I won’t be shamed or damned
I’ll make this count, again
Silence hides a futile truth
Behind the lies that fracture me and you
Resolve to solve this mystery
Face it, I won’t, slide into repeat
I’ve been crawling through the days
Bound down by disarray
I won’t be shamed or damned
I’ll make this count, again
