"Justify Me" lyrics

Justify Me

Everywhere you go you never know
If you're coming back
But I don't care
I'm everywhere
No place to come back to
Up and down you walk the hallways
Silver face with hands is always
"Tick-Tock" on your back
Chasing you

Justify me
I'm down on my knees
Please, please, please let it go
Oh, it's so hard

Everyone I've been is wondering
Where I've been and asking why
I didn't write when I was in jail
It's hard to be yourself
When everyone is someone else
And everything is something else
And it's bound to fail

Justify me
I'm down on my knees
Please, please, please let it go
Oh, it's so hard

Starry skied
Countryside
Magnetic feet
On the city street
Oh, it's so hard

Oh, it's so hard
Ask yourself
"Who am I?"
Even angels cry sometimes
To sanctify
Oh, it's so hard

Justify me
I'm down on my knees
Please, please, please let it go
Please, please, please let it go
Please, please, please let it go
Oh, it's so hard
