Every rooftop unsteady on the stairs
Every old uncle leaning on its crutch
Every old drunk stumbling backwards
Searching for the wall
And every palm tree doubled over in the wind
Every man on the street looking shallow and thin
Every broke leg race horse chewing on the gates of his star
And every yachtsman with a million in a bank
Afloat on the sea like a flake in a tank
Tying his mystery in the face of a squal
You can't save ‘em all
Oh you can't save em all
You got to choose
Who you live for
Read down them lines
Behind them, all these walls
They'll cryin but Lord
Don't you know?
You can't save ‘em all
Every old man folded in his chair
Talking and laughing with nobody there
Bessing his lips to a phone that don't nobody call
Every shit car pulling back on the road
Squealing its tiers and gunning for a home
Leaving behind, it's some shit
Baby tune you to prom
You can't save ‘em all
Oh you can't save em all
You got to choose
Who you live for
Read down them lines
Behind them, all these walls
They'll cryin but Lord
Don't you know?
You can't save ‘em all
Every innocent head for a guy
Down on his knees surrendered in awe
Vibing in front of the prophet who holds her in front
You can't save ‘em all
Oh you can't save em all
You got to choose
Who you live for
Read down them lines
Behind them, all these walls
They'll cryin but Lord
Don't you know?
You can't save ‘em all
