jesse whistler – gave more than it took lyrics
i’ve been waiting for a chance to speak up
cause the silence took fourteen years from us
and i know it’s not like the timid one i am
to go taking us back to places we don’t wanna go again
but your words of fire branded our young hearts
when we needed each other most we were hundreds of miles apart
four little islands ravaged by a storm of anger and loneliness
how could you expect no consequences?
the pain that you dismissed
the sorrow that you denied me
well it’s the reason i exist
it’s the truth at which you laughed
it showed me how to write again
and it taught me how to love again
and it gave more in the end than it took
now i see a man who doesn’t understand
his worth got nothing to do
with accolades or mistakes he’s made
a man who can’t forgive himself
who gave up living long ago
well the mirror doesn’t lie
but it’s not the only truth
he’s rooted to the sh-r-
but his hands are on the ropes
and there’s a voice calling him to cast them off
now it’s darker than before
and the wind is picking up
but there’s a light, he thought he saw
i’m not strong but i am brave
brave does not mean unafraid
i wrote letters you never will read
it’s a life of richness or of riches
or ambitions, or forgiveness
i know i can’t change no one else but me
now you’re rooted to the sh-r-
but your hands are on the ropes
and there’s a voice calling you to cast them off
now your sails are filled with wind again
writing songs in your sleep again
and it gave more in the end than it took
