Undermine - Charles Esten

Sometimes good intentions
Don’t come across so well
Ain't worth thinking bout
Just cause I ain’t lived through
Same hand that was delaat to you
Don’t make me any less
Make any more of you.

I wouldn’t trade my best day.
So you could validate
All your fears.

And if I’ve only got one shot
Won’t waste it on a shadow box
I’ll stand right here.

It’s all talk talk talk
Talking in the wind
It only slows you down
If you start listening
And it’s a whole lot harder to shine
Than undermine
Than undermine.

First mile is always harder
When you leave what you know
Won’t beg you if you stay here
Waving as I go
Always wished the best for you
Thought that you’d see me through
My wildest dreams
Yea the ones you thought I’d never make

Still, you would trade your best day
Just to have your way
All these years
And if you only had one shot
Maybe all this talk
Would disappear

Chorus
