lyrics

Spent my nights in pursuit
My days in regret
Running through the means and reasons to forget
Don't come round
And tell me what you've heard
No one knows it better all the things that I deserve

There's a freedom that comes from knowing your worth
Even if it's dirt

Don't make that face
Anyone can see
We can't all be winners and that's ok with me
Just let go
Forget about me
My story should have ended in that desert overseas

There's a freedom that comes from knowing your worth
Even if it's dirt

What kind of fortune
Could I be worthy of
I've squandered every head start and spoiled every love
They're invisible things
These lives that we lead
Our greatest value lies between the soil and the seed

There's a freedom that comes from knowing your worth
Even if it's dirt
There's a peace that comes from knowing your worth
Even if it hurts
