All for You - Council

I was doomed from the start

And I held my regrets

I was covered in dark

And I wore it like death

Still I got a heart

That pounds in this chest

And my closet is full for days

But when your strength is gone

And the lights go grey

I’ll sing your favorite song

I’ll be your hit parade

With every breathe I’ve blown

I’ve failed a million ways

And everything I own

I tore to pieces

When the darkness comes

To conceal my wounds

I did it all for you

I did it all for you

My vacant eyes

Hide the dangerous truth

I did it all for you

I did it all for you

I can be smart, I can be misled

I can be dark and I can be wasted

I swam like a shark

Through a sea of this red

But your blood is all that I tasted

I know the things they say

And they were never true

With every step I take

It brings me back to you

I know we may be cursed

I know I’m not brand new

But for all it’s worth

I live and die for you

When the darkness comes

To conceal my wounds

I did it all for you

I did it all for you

My vacant eyes

Hide the dangerous truth

I did it all for you

I did it all for you

I’ll keep your secrets safe

I’ll take them to my grave

And you can be my saint

When I’m in pieces

With no more lies to tell

We know this place too well

And we can share this hell

It all begins with you
