Save My Soul - Jars Of Clay

I get off the couch and try to defend the ways that I measure right

But I’m a mouse on a wheel, I’ll toil and steal

It’s the same by the day or night

You see, the girls want the boys, the boys go to work

Some things will never change

But we shoot for the moon, we target the stars

But we’re always so out of range

'Cause it’ll never save my soul, never save my soul

But I try and I try and I try

I’m up but I’m late, a curse on my heels

I stop when I have enough

I drink to the cause and take the applause

But there’s too many cracks in the cup

And it would never save my soul, would never save my soul

But I Try and I try and I try

And it would never save my soul, would never save my soul

But I Try and I try and I try

Save my soul, I try and I try and I try

To save my soul

It would never save my soul, would never save my soul

But I Try and I try and I try

No, no, no, no, no, it would never save my soul

God, can you take the weight off of my shoulders now

Save my soul, don’t even try, don’t even try
