Only God Knows Why

Smile-- thanks

I've been sittin' here
Tryin' to find myself
I get behind myself
I need to rewind myself


Lookin for the payback
Listen for the playback
They say that every man bleeds just like me


And now I feel like number one
Yet I'm last in line
I watch my younger son
And it helps to pass the time


I take too many pills it helps to ease the pain
I made a couple of dollar bills still I feel the same


Everybody knows my name
They say it way out loud
A lot of folks fuck with me
It's hard to hang out in the crowd


I guess that's the price you pay
To be some big shot like I am
Outskirt stands and one night stands
Still I can't find love


And when your walls come tumbling down
I will always be around


And when your walls come tumbling down
I will always be around


People don't know about the things I say and do
They don't understand about the shit that I've been through


It's been so long since I've been home
I've been gone....I've been gone for way too long
Maybe I forgot all the things I miss
Oh somehow I know there's more to life than this


I said it too many times
And I still stand firm
You get what you put in
And people get what they deserve


Still I ain't seen mine
No I ain't seen mine
I've been giving just ain't been gettin'
I've been walking down that line
So I think i'll keep on walking
With my head held high
I'll keep moving on and only God knows why


Only God.....only God
Only God knows why
Only God....knows....why why why only God knows why
Take me to the river's...edge
Take me to the river...hey hey hey
