Bold and Beaten Lyrics

AS I STRAY OUT ON MY OWN
BECOME A STRANGER TO MYSELF
WALK AWAY FROM ALL I OWN
PUT MY LIFE ONTO A SHELF
I"M ALONE, BUT I"M NOT LONLEY
I"VE GOT FRIENDS EVERYWHERE I GO
I"VE GOT A HOUSE, BUT STILL NO HOME
I TAKE SHELTER IN MY SONGS

I"VE BEEN BOLD AND I"VE BEEN BEATEN
I"VE COME AHEAD AND I"VE LOST
EVERYTHING I"VE BEEN GIVEN
HAS BEEN WORTH THE PAIN IT COSTS
THERE"S A LIE BEHIND MY SMILE
A TRUTH THAT CAN"T BE TOLD
IT"S A, LOAD, THAT I CAN"T SHARE
SO I CARRY THAT LOAD ON MY OWN

I"VE BEEN BOLD AND I"VE BEEN BEATEN
I"VE COME AHEAD AND I"VE LOST
EVERYTHING I"VE BEEN GIVEN
HAS BEEN WORTH THE PAIN IT COSTS
I"VE GOT A LOVE, THAT CAN"T BE LOVED
A LOVE THAT CAN"T BE HELD
IT"S A LOVE THAT TORTURES ME
THAT WITHOUT MY LIFE IS HELL

I"VE BEEN BOLD AND I"VE BEEN BEATEN
I"VE COME AHEAD AND I"VE LOST
EVERYTHING I"VE BEEN GIVEN
HAS BEEN WORTH THE PAIN IT COSTS
