Used Up All My Love

I put your things on the floor
In a box that has your name beside the door
Please don't cry 'gain this time
Oh no no no no no
You already know, it isn't it you
But I'll say it cause I've got to try and prove
Who I am, oh who I am
It's not up to you to figure this out
Cause my mind is made up way beyond a doubt
It ain't cool if I linger to long
Oh no no no no no
You've known this so long, so please leave me be
What's only one more time I broke your heart, you see?
I'm overdue from loving you
This is how I roll
I'm as good as gone
And it makes me want a brand new heart
But I used up all my lovin long ago
Can't stop this madness from the feelin that I bore
I guess that's because I don't sleep well anymore
And if I send this to you signed 'Sincerely Yours'
Then I can't find my happiness on different shores
I want you to get on that flight
Cause I don't think that I could sleep another night
Without you, by my side
Oh no no no no no
Babe this time we're gonna rise
Above every single other thing we've tried
I was wrong, oh I was wrong
This is how I roll
I'm as good as gone
And it makes me want a brand new heart
But I used up all my lovin long ago
used up all my lovin long ago
used up all my lovin... long ago

Only Your Soul

I didn't when you signed your name
And I wouldn't when you went away
And I couldn't pull that trigger back
To take a life for a flag
And it's only your soul you've gone and sold
Well I sit beside you everyday
While you commit to vote and pray
And blow away what frightens you
There's nothing more for me to do
And it's only your soul you've gone and sold
Is this the kind of free you want?
That trembles at your loaded gun?
It seems to me a quick demise
A rise of fall of nation's pride
And it's only your soul you've gone and sold
I recognize the wars you cite
When you claim that it's justifed
But I fail to see your truth unfold
How winning proves you're right at all
And it's only your soul you've gone and sold

You get that light right out my eye
I'm here to clear my name out right
America has lost it's sight
Your sanctity is not my fight
Don't know if it's worth fighting for
Society is such a whore
JFK was shot in 63
Say goodbye to your naivety
Daddy watched him die on live tv
The magic bullet that killed our country's dream
Don't know if it's worth fighting for
Society is such a whore
They gave it all they had and more
In case you're wondering I'm not
The one you're lookin for
Outsource all your industry today
That way all our purpose goes away
Corporate finance dictates what will stay
Do your part, rape Lady Liberty
Don't know if it's worth fighting for
Society is such a whore
They gave it all they had and more
In case you're wondering I'm not
The one you're lookin for

Made My Way

Learn from my falls and I done paid my dues
I get back up to follow the path that I choose
And I know they'd love to see me in that star-maker machinery
But that spotlight just reveals all you have to lose
Some say I'm stubborn, and I'm sure that they're right
That old devil on my shoulder can put up a fight
So I don't give up so easy, but don't be alarmed
I don't mean ya, I don't mean ya, I don't mean ya no harm
Cause I made my way in this world
Just me, my wits and my girl
By the 904 and my word
That I claimed my place
Fate step on back, don't block my way again
Those old bootstraps are tattered and lean
But the rest of my hide is tidy and clean
I wake up to my woman asleep in my bed
It don't get any better, any better than this
Don't take it for granted, don't take it
Made my way in this world
Just me, my wits and my girl
By the 904 and my word
That I claimed my place
Fate step on back, don't block my way again
