Lyrics Keeping Count - Wind In Sails

Keeping Count

There’s a demon at my door
And he’s keeping count of all my past mistakes
Disguised as someone that I know
Waiting patiently like there’s no one left to take
And if it’s all the same
I wonder why it is he came
Why do I feel like I’m walking over my own grave
Have a lead an honest life
Can I work my hands raw enough
To show how hard I’ve tried
What if we all end up alone
I’m hoping there’s something more that we have not been told
Our two ends meet at the fold
And time, it passes with the pages
Quoting every line won’t slow it’s curse on us
So live like you were meant to make it
Hold your head up high and never doubt yourself
Cause if it’s all we have
Let’s hope we make the best of it
And never regret the mistakes we’ve made cause we learn from them
Have I lead an honest life
Can I work my hands raw enough
To show how hard I’ve tried
What if we all make peace with this
I’m hoping the lives we lead make all the pieces fit
And we’ll be okay with it
When I can only lay there for so long
Before my body gives up
Can my last conscious thought be
You in the doorway, that night when we were innocent and young
