Sweat, Blood, And Tears

SWEAT, BLOOD, AND TEARS - Written by Carroll Bryant


To know it's tough is not enough 
So hard to say 
A bit of this is a bit too much 
Day after day
You pour it on and you pour it out 
You still find a way 
Showcase a love that is deep in doubt 
An empty display 

To sit and wonder
Wonder how we went under
Is no consolation to how I feel 

I cried sweat, blood, and tears
I should have known it would be in vain 
I cried sweat, blood, and tears
Such a pitiful shame 

I tried to run into the sun 
Eyes are so blind 
I didn't know that you were the one
Who would mess with my mind 
You gave it one and you gave it all
Time is but time 
You had your fun and you took the fall
What do you design? 

To have to worry
Worry about the hurry
Is no satisfaction to the unknown

I cried sweat, blood, and tears
I should have known it would be in vain 
I cried sweat, blood, and tears
Such a pitiful shame

What was to be is so hard to see
Or so they say that they know 
From coast to coast and sea to sea
On your tippy of toes 
Hanging up and or hanging in 
It's in the ozone 
Fool to lose and a fool to win
Another fool all alone 

To sit and wonder
Wonder how we went under
Is no consolation to how I feel 

I cried sweat, blood, and tears
I should have known it would be in vain 
I cried sweat, blood, and tears
Such a pitiful shame
