What if I squeeze myself into any shape And I still don't fit? What if I bend myself so much that I break And I can't mend it? What if I burn so bright that the fire goes out And I can't stay lit? What's the point in it? I could get good at crying crocodile tears Just to get along I could carry on telling you what you wanna hear Til my voice is gone But if I finally get to the place that I think is home And I don't belong What's the point in it, where's the benefit When I'm gaining all, but I'm losin' it? It's not worth having If it's too much to hold You can dig so deep That you're left with a hole Thirsty in a desert with a bag full of gold Don't wanna end up like pirate bones What I thought was precious, just a pile o' stones I might have the treasure, but I'd be lying alone Just a pile of pirate bones (Uh, yeah, oh, oh) If I forfeit my soul, it ain't worth having (Uh, yeah, oh, oh) If it's something I stole, it ain't worth having What if I stake everything I am on a dream And it's counterfeit? If I reach the end that justifies the means Could I live with it? And if it's true that havin' too much of any good thing Can only make me sick What's the point in it, where's the benefit When I'm gaining all but I'm losing it? Oh It's not worth having If it's too much to hold You can dig so deep That you're left with a hole Thirsty in a desert with a bag full of gold Don't wanna end up like pirate bones What I thought was precious, just a pile o' stones I might have the treasure, but I'd be lying alone Pirate bones (Uh, yeah, oh, oh) If I forfeit my soul, it ain't worth having (Uh, yeah, oh, oh) If it's something I stole, it ain't worth having It's not worth that much to me If losin' out is what it means To swim in shallow victory is empty, empty It's just not worth the price It's only a fool's paradise If it's draining every drop of life Till I'm dry like pirate bones (It's not worth having) It's not worth having If it's too much to hold You can dig so deep That you're left with a hole Thirsty in a desert with a bag full of gold Don't wanna end up like pirate bones What I thought was precious, just a pile o' stones (pile o' stones) I might have the treasure, but I'd be lying alone Just a pile of pirate bones (If I forfeit my soul) If I forfeit my soul, it ain't worth having If it's something I stole, it ain't worth having (Pirate bones) Pirate bones (What I the thought was treasure, just a pile o' stones) Pirate bones pirate bones (Uh, yeah, oh, oh) If I forfeit my soul, it ain't worth having
