Acoustic leftovers!

"All I Have Left" (Maybe):

Maybe I'm not what you want me to be;
Or maybe you're just not able to see -
I've tried to live up to your ideals and your dreams;
Before I was ever a thought or conceived;

Maybe I'm just like all of the rest;
And it kills you to know that I'm not what you wished;
If I was just like them would you give up the fight;
Or just wish for another son or a chance to be right -

Come on;
I gave it all;
Just go on;
And say it all;
Take what you didn't help me to get;
Take the only thing -- when it's all I have left;

Maybe 'cause I was raised like a priest;
I could reign over heaven and rest in your dreams;
Maybe then you would sleep well late at night;
And not have a reason to fear for my life;

Maybe 'cause you would swallow your pain;
And throw away everything including me;
I'd try to find someone through your selfish disguise;
But, maybe you weren't even worth it -- so, I'm not gonna try;

Come on;
I gave it all;
Just go on;
And say it all;
Take what you didn't help me to get;
Take the only thing - when it's all I left;

Oh love, I can't be saved;
When there's no love inside of me;
Oh love, get off of your knees;
While the streets still call out to me -

Maybe this melody's dronin' the point;
Our lives are a circle and nobody's right;
While we question and prepare for what's comin' next;
And smother the one's who could love us through this;

Maybe there's more than one way to go;
Or maybe we'll see that all roads were closed;
And we'll question the whos, and the whats, when or whys -
Or how in the hell did we ever - even survived -

Come on;
I gave it all;
Just go on;
And say it all;
Take what you didn't help me to get;
Take the only thing -- when it's all I have left;
