Lyrics: Every Man

I've got scars, I've got regrets

I've got some I ain't learned yet

I'm somewhere in the middle of it all

I've been working on a letter

That'll get returned to sender

The second my last sunset finally falls


There were hard parts

Couple false starts

But the same heart's still beating in my chest


I'm every man I've ever been

The forgiveness and the sin

Every loss and every win

All the bones that build the temple I've become

I'm the father and the son

All the foolish things I've done

Till the roads I've chose to run come to an end

I am every man I've ever been


I'm every book I've ever read

All the promises I've kept

Every word I've ever said come back to haunt me

Good intentions

And did I mention

That reflection's always changing through it all?


I'm every man I've ever been

The forgiveness and the sin

Every loss and every win

All the bones that build the temple I've become

I'm the father and the son

All the foolish things I've done

Till the roads I've chose to run come to an end

I am every man I've ever been


From the me I tried to hate

To the me that's taken shape

They built the temple I've been living in

I am not just any one of them

'Cause I am every man I've ever been
