Still Its Own Reward Lyrics

There are ways

There are ways if they'd asked
I'd have told the world to treat you
At each stage you could take what they'd throw at you

I don't want to believe
That this time they really beat you
See you there looking not meant to make it through

But don't you find it's on your mind
With friends all going places?
And even though they told you so
Was that sufficient basis?
And when you lose across the board
Is trying still it's own reward?
Still it's own reward

Could I have been there to
Feed you pieces of survival
Drag it out till we thought of that as the norm
And at the first sign of strength
Turn into your fiercest rival
Condescending to come in a pleasing form

But do you size up in their eyes
How much they'll feel your leaving?
And even though they told you so
Were words much worth believing?
And with the fall you're headed toward
Is trusting still it's own reward?
Is trying still it's own reward

I'm sorry, I've seen a whole lot of bad advice go by
You don't worry about yourself and baby why should I?
Is baby gonna die?
Is baby gonna die?

Don't you find it's on your mind
With first impressions ending?
And even though they told you so
Was there much worth defending?
And when it's not your own accord
Is living still it's own reward?
Is trusting still it's own
Is trying still it's own reward
