Maybe I’m ashamed

‘Cause maybe I’ll lose

I’m broken apart

Lookin’ for the glue

But the fight isn’t done

There’s more I could do

A man is his heart

And the heart can be bulletproof

So yeah, maybe I’m maimed

but I’ll never be done

I’ll stand like a king

with a crown made of blood

Look in my eyes

see what hasn’t been touched

The sting of defeat

needs permission to cut

 

And maybe I’m just wrong

And maybe I should admit its over

But that’s just not my way

You see a dead man walkin’

I see the steps I take

 

I’ma finish what I started

I’ma get through this I promise

One way or another I’m making it home

I keep this photo in my pocket

Through all this, I still haven’t lost it

‘Cause if my lover’s got a view

I know living is a killer cologne

 

I’ll see you when we’re kissing hello

‘Cause baby I’m making it home

I’ll see you when we’re kissing hello

‘Cause baby I’m making it home

 

So here I’ma stay

The arena can boo

I’m liking the scars

I’ll spit out the tooth

Yeah, we’re not the same

I’m not my wounds

A man is his heart

And the heart can be bulletproof

Yeah, there is no blade

That’ll cut through my soul

There is no gun

I’m afraid you can load

When you look in my eyes

See I am whole

You can hurt this flesh

But no pain will ever touch my ghost

 

So I’ma finish what I started

I’ma get through this I promise

One way or another I’m making it home

I keep this photo in my pocket

Through all this, I still haven’t lost it

‘Cause if my lover’s got a view

I know living is a killer cologne

 

I’ll see you when we’re kissing hello

‘Cause baby I’m making it home

‘Cause baby I’m making it

‘Cause baby I’m making it home
