Am I gonna follow in these footsteps
Left behind by family that have come and gone
I don’t want to be addicted too much and hoard
Memories of these debts and receipts
And I don’t wanna live alone in my home
Without somebody to hold
I’m frail from regret, I don’t fail to forget
Who I was back then, I know I’ve driven many away
But my heart keeps giving, my friends stopped listening
And they all kept dwindling, leaving me unsatisfied
Who’s gonna leave me sanctified?
Ain't that the truth
Ain't that the truth
Ain't that the truth
Ain't that the truth
But this lighthouse can’t keep watching
It can try to bring warmth from our numb
Broken souls that were spared to behold
Your memory, and is this a new way to live
This meaning of life, got to keep moving to relieve
What I’ve done
Without God, on my own, I’m so gone just tell me where’s home
Got to keep myself away because
That is my truth
That is my truth
That is my truth
That is my truth
