In the End (Live In Texas) Lyrics

It starts with one thing, I don't know why, it doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme to explain in due time, all I know
Time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings, watch it count down 'til the end of the day, the clock ticks life away, it's so unreal

You didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Tryin' to hold on but didn't even know
I wasted it all just to watch you go

I kept everything inside, and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter

One thing, I don't know why, it doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme, to remind myself how I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me, acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me, I'm surprised it got so far

Things aren't the way they were before
You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then, but it all comes back to me in the end

I kept everything inside
And even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter (Come on you guys, let's go out off to sit right now)

I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know

I put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There's only one thing you should know

I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter
