"The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for."-Bob Marley


I've got something to tell you
It's a secret that you know
You know who it's about
You know the way it goes

Maybe if I wait
You'll forget all the answers
You'll know it's too late
This is the last chance of yours
This is the last time
I won't do this again
Not for a dollar on each dime
Not if the bounty is my head

It's too much loss
It's too much work
This thinking choice
Brings so much hurt
And I can't afford to risk this all
I won't try to risk this all
Not if our hearts are on the roll call

Make this choice
I dare you
Make it once more
Cause I know you
Can't take this anymore than I
You'd rather not chance these dreams
You won't try to see them die

But I've got something to tell you
It's a secret that you know
You know who it's about
You know the way it goes
Maybe if I wait
You'll forget all the answers
You'll know it's too late
This is the last chance of yours

Make up your mind
Now is too late
You can't try twice over
This isn't bait
This chance is one in a life time
So listen, it's no lie
Just yes or no
Stay or go
I'll obey the choice
But I've gotta know

Make this choice
I dare you
Make it once more
Cause I know you
Can't take this anymore than I
You'd rather not chance these dreams
You won't try to see them die


Maybe if I wait
You'll forget all the answers
You'll know it's too late
This is the last chance of yours
This is the last time
I won't do this again
Not for a dollar on each dime
Not if the bounty is my head

It's too much loss
It's too much work
This thinking choice
Brings so much hurt
And I can't afford to risk this all
I won't try to risk this all
Not if our hearts are on the roll call

Still I've got something to tell you
It's a secret that you know
You know who it's about
You know the way it goes
