To Leave Something Behind - Sean Rowe

I cannot say that I know you well

But you can't lie to me with all these books that you sell

I'm not trying to follow you to the end of the world

I'm just trying to leave something behind

Words have come from men and mouse

But I can't help thinking that I've heard the wrong crowd

When all the water is gone my job will be too

And I'm trying to leave something behind

Oh money is free but love costs more than our bread

And the ceiling is hard to reach

Oh the future ahead is broken and red

But I'm trying to leave something behind

This whole world is a foreign land

We swallow the moon but we don't know our own hand

We're running with the case but we ain't got the gold

Yet we're trying to leave something behind

My friends I believe we are at the wrong fight

And I cannot read what I did not write

I've been to his house but the master is gone

But I'd like to leave something behind

There is a beast who has taken my blame

You can put me to bed but you can't feel my pain

When the machine has taken the soul from the man

It's time to leave something behind

Oh money is free but love costs more than our bread

And the ceiling is hard to reach

Oh the future ahead is already dead

So I'm trying to leave something behind

I got this feeling that I'm still at the shore

And pockets don't know what it means to be poor

I can get through the wall if you give me a door

So I can leave something behind

Oh wisdom is lost in the trees somewhere

You're not going to find it in some mental gray hair

It's locked up from those who hurry ahead

And it's time to leave something behind

Oh money is free but love costs more than our bread

And the ceiling is hard to reach

When my son is a man he will know what I meant

I was just trying to leave something behind

I was just trying to leave something behind
