lyrics

Some old memory woke me up today
You’re calling from some lonesome highway
If you’re leaving because you think you must
I’ll be here burning the day away

While my words disappear into dust
You’re driving far away from us
Turn around if you’ve something to say
Before you smile and fade away.

I’ve been bruised and I’ve been battered
By the things that don’t matter
Chip away

Always find myself holding on
To moments long dead and gone
Like worry beads fumbling through hands
I kneed them through until I’m damned

I’ve been bruised and I’ve been battered
By the things that don’t matter
Chip away, chip away

If my heart has hardened into stone
Chip away the rock what’s left can build a home
Hold on to what time has weathered away
It can be assembled to start a new day

Always chasing some new shiny thing
My hopes drift apart like broken rings
I guess I’ll grab my things and go
And find a new memory for tomorrow.

I’ve been bruised and I’ve been battered
By the things that don’t matter
Chip away, chip away, chip away, chip away
