Where My Mouth Is Lyrics

See, it's not like I didn't mean
What I said when I said
"I'll put my money where my mouth is..."
And I put my money where my mouth was
Until I couldn't breathe through my nose
And now I'm staring at the floor
Where my second life just ended
Where I lost not one, but two friends

Yeah I had it all
Sitting on top of the world
But I threw it away
Just to prove that I could
I put my money where my mouth is

See, I recall quite perfectly who I was
Both before and after the drugs (and after the drugs)
Both before and after the drugs (and after the drugs)
I put my money where my mouth is
I put my money where my mouth was
I got a strong will just weak hands
And I don't know what to do with either one of them

Yeah I had it all
Sitting on top of the world
But I threw it away (threw it away)
Just to prove that I could
Just to prove that I could
I put my money where my mouth is
I put my money where my mouth is
I put my money where my mouth is

Your knight in shining armor of a mother and a father
You had everything, everything you needed
And it was made crystal clear that would not change

Yeah I had it all
Sitting on top of the world
But I threw it away (Why'd you do it, why oh why'd you do it?)
Just to prove that I could
Yeah I had it all (Why'd you do it, why oh why'd you do it?)
And I had it good, so good
But I threw it away, away (Why'd you do it, why oh why'd you do it?)
Just to prove that I could, I could
Just to prove that I could (Why'd you do it, why oh why'd you do it?)
I put my money where my mouth is (Why'd you do it, why oh why'd you do it?)
I put my money where my mouth is, is (Why'd you do it, why oh why'd you do it?)
I put my money where my mouth is
Yeah I had it all
