Story Behind The Song
It don't mean much
It don't mean a thing
for pride we fought
alone is what we gained
I'm called each night to defend
arraigned by past mistakes
shame to feel forgotten
Carved in the bark I'm afraid
so many candled wishes
never found the light of day

Lyrics
Make it RIGHT © TIMOTHY J. MARTIN
It don't mean much
It don't mean a thing
for pride we fought
alone is what we gained
I'm called each night to defend
arraigned by past mistakes
shame to feel forgotten
Carved in the bark I'm afraid
so many candled wishes
never found the light of day
oh it seems I've found the edge
a cliff to bear my shame
You know I'm still - tongue tied shy
Unopened letter - waiting for you to find
Taken the reminders - locked them away
Lie to the mirror - stronger today
Throw down another round - mask that fear
Endured the scars - still nursing the tears
I've gotta confess - it's my cross to bear
Realized the truth - awaits those who dare
