MAYCOMB LYRICS

"Always The Courage"

Stuck in this hole; I’ve spent the last two years here, and it’s taking its toll. And though I don’t have much to show for it, you put my life before your own: you’ve helped me more than you know. So don’t be so hard on yourself; we all know that I’m not where I thought I would be, but that’s down to me. I made my promises, and I swear I will make you proud of me. All of my best laid plans led to dead ends, and seeing the bright side won’t pay the rent, but I know that you have faith in me, and that’s all I need. I had a gut full of pride, but you were on my side when with every step I felt myself fall behind. And every time I said I was not afraid, but I was afraid, you took my hand to remind me that home was a phone call away. So don’t be so hard on yourself; we all know that I’ve done things I’ll live to regret, but I won’t let this die yet. It’s all that I’ve got, but it’s more than it seems. Of all that I’ve lost, nothing means more to me. A choice was made to let every safe bet go to waste. It’s the longest of shots, but it’s all that I’ve got left to take; if I fail, at least you’ll see the best of me. A choice was made to let every safe bet go to waste. It’s the longest of shots, but it’s all that I’ve got left to take; if I make it, then you’ll see the best of me. So don’t be so hard on yourself, because you had faith in me when I’d lost all respect for myself, and honestly, nothing means more to me.
