Jeff Reinartz - Crosses

If you told me you're leaving
I can't say that I'd even
Ask you to come back again

Cuz so many times
It just feels like I'm
Playing a game I can't win

You can't make things different by
Trying to stay ignorant and
Acting like it's happening to you

We all got our cross to bear
But yours is so heavy, there
Has to be something you can do

Throw open the blinds, the sun always shines
Even when the clouds have their way
Take the bad with the good
Stop trying for sainthood
We all stand in judgment some day

You just sit in your chair
Wishing someone was there
To tell you what you think is right

But if that someone says
Something you would contest
The fire starts to burn in your eyes

I've said it before
And I'll say it again
I'd rather get along than be right

Wish you would stop to think
That pouring another drink
Might not be the answer tonight

Throw open the blinds The sun always shines
Even when the clouds have their way
Take the bad with the good
It's too late for sainthood
We all stand in judgment some day

I've been there before
I'm glad I ain't anymore
I've seen what the bottle can do

I ain't here to judge
Or to shame or sling mud
But I wish you'd let your cross carry you
I'd rather see your cross carry you

Throw open the blinds The sun always shines
Even when the clouds have their way
Take the bad with the good
It's too late for sainthood
We all stand in judgment some day
