Pride

 

Well I’ve tried to forget you

But it’s never quite that easy

And  I’d hide my regrets to

Just get through the day

 

Cause what lingers inside is a tribute to your pride

And it doesn’t really matter

It makes no difference in the end

 

I spent too long just thinking about it

In these futile attempts to believe

That somehow I could mean as much to you 

As you do to me

 

But you’ve got your pride

You’ve still got your pride

 

I’m tired of the lies I tell myself

But it’s never quite that simple to change (to change, to change)

I’m inspired to just leave it all behind and get on with today

 

Cause what’s growing inside is a seedling of my pride

And nothing else matters

I know, it will make the difference in the end

 

All those years I spent with my head underwater

My helpless attempts to believe…

That somehow you were reaching out a hand 

To save me...

 

Now I hold my head up high

And finally my pride can be a match for your own

There’s no more tears to cry

It’s time to prove, no matter what I say or what I do - 

 

You’ve still got your pride

You’ve still got your pride
