I try to keep them from sinking
While my head's underwater
All the time that I wasted trying to get it right for someone else
That was all I had
I gave them everything
While their eggs were scattered around
That was all I had
I gave them everything
Thats the story of my life
I know you had other plans invested
I'm not denying I led you on
I'm a hypocrite, you should not love me
The way you do
Because all this time
I spent hurt
I hurt you too
And it's bittersweet
I was all you had
You gave me everything
While my eggs were scattered around
You know I won't come home 'til I sing every note that is in my heart
I tried to live that life
But I can't get it right
This is the only thing I know, oh
You know I won't come home 'til I sing every note that is in my heart
I tried to live that life
But I can't get it right
This is the only thing I know
Its all I have
I'm giving everything
All my eggs in one basket
Here we go, the last stretch
I won't give up, I can't
I'll write the story of my life
