What I’ve Done c Chuck LeMonds 2007

I’m standing on a corner
Standing at the gate
Facing what I’ve always seen
Would be my fate.

I can blame no one
For what I have done
I’ve broken all the rules
Taken what’s not mine.

I’m a petty small time thief
Who’s done hard time
I’ve stolen from my mother
and all the neighbors down the line.

It’s hard on the inside
It’s hard getting out
If there’s trouble in the neighborhood
I’m a suspect without a doubt.

But if it’s true that you save
A soul who doesn’t care
If it’s true that you save
A man who’s taken every dare
If it’s true that you save
A drunkard who’s lost his faith
If it’s true that you save
Then save me from my self.

I come from a good home
with breakfast every morning
chickens in the courtyard
eggs we couldn’t use we gave away.

But nothing seems to matter now
I wake up with a cough
I’ve lost all fear of the law
They can never touch my heart.
