What if I squeezed myself into any shape
|
and I still don't fit.
|
What if I bend myself so much that I break
|
and I cant mend it.
|
What if I burned so bright that the fire goes out
|
and I cant stay lit.
|
Whats the point in it?
|
I could get good at crying crocodiles tears
|
just to get along.
|
I could carry on telling you what you want to hear
|
til my voice is gone.
|
But if I finally get to the place that I think is home
|
and I don't belong.
|
Whats the point in it?
|
Wheres the benefit?
|
When I'm gaining all but I'm losing it.
|
|
It’s not worth having
|
If it’s too much to hold.
|
You can dig so deep
|
That your left with a hole.
|
Thirsty in a desert with a bag full of gold.
|
Don't wanna end up like pirate bones
|
What I thought was precious just a pile of stones
|
I might have the treasure, but I’d be lying alone
|
Just a pile of Pirate bones
|
Uh yeah oh oh
|
If I forfeit my soul it ain't worth having.
|
Uh yeah oh oh
|
If its something I stole it ain't worth having.
|
|
What if I stake everything I am on a dream
|
and its counterfeit?
|
If I reach the end that justifies the means
|
could I live with it?
|
And if its true that I have too much of any good thing
|
can only make me sick.
|
Whats the point in it?
|
Wheres the benefit?
|
When I'm gaining all, but I'm losing it.
|
Oooh
|
|
It’s not worth having
|
If it’s too much to hold.
|
You can dig so deep
|
That your left with a hole.
|
Thirsty in a desert with a bag full of gold.
|
Don't wanna end up like pirate bones
|
What I thought was precious just a pile of stones
|
I might have the treasure, but I’d be lying alone
|
Pirate bones
|
Uh yeah oh oh
|
If I forfeit my soul it ain't worth having.
|
Uh yeah oh oh
|
If its something I stole it ain't worth having.
|
|
Its not worth that much to me
|
If loosing out is what it means
|
To swim in shallow victory
|
Is empty, empty
|
It’s just not worth the price.
|
Its only a fools paradise
|
If its draining every drop of life
|
Til I'm dry.
|
Like.
|
Pirate Bones!
|
|
It’s not worth having
|
If it’s too much to hold.
|
You can dig so deep
|
That your left with a hole.
|
Thirsty in a desert with a bag full of gold.
|
Don't wanna end up like pirate bones
|
What I thought was precious just a pile of stones
|
I might have the treasure, but I’d be lying alone
|
Just a pile of Pirate bones
|
|
If I forfeit my soul it ain't worth having.
|
oh oh
|
If its something I stole it ain't worth having.
|
|
Pirate bones
|
What I thought was precious just a pile of stones
|
mmmmm
|
Pirate Bones.
