Corduroy McLellan – Checkmate Lyrics

Artist: Corduroy McLellan
Song: Checkmate

Music is the only place i go to be myself
Anywhere else i put my feelings on the shelf
Each time somebody asks, i turn down the help
Deep inside i need a friend that can walk me through hell

‘cause i been hurtin’, feelin’ like there’s something always lurkin’
Thought i saw a sunny day then the clouds came down like curtains
So sick of this rain, but lately it seems certain
On the verge of somethin’ great ‘til i see that nothing’s workin’

Tried prayer, tried my friends, seen the ones who pretend
I just need to hеar her voice, she can’t bе there in the end
Got one person in life who knows exactly where i’ve been
As i glance in the mirror even he can’t help again

Too smart for my own good, i know i’m overthinkin’
I wish that i could stop and let my mind chill for a season
Then i go back and wonder why i always think i’m sinkin’
Just another thought that haunts me flying dutchmen all in green and

Now i question things i know should not be up in my head
She’s the greatest in the world why can’t i just comprehend
It won’t always be perfect and if so then it’s pretend
These thoughts come from below and sometimes i descend

Sometimes i question if ramona’s really here and has a plan
I know that i got faith, i don’t always understand
And lately life has gotten heavy and i need someone to stand
And take my hand and walk me through the door into the promised land

Sometimes i really start to wonder what’s my purpose in life
Have i been focused on the good or given up on that side
I do my best to do what’s right but then i start to question why
All my friends are drunk or high but in the morning they’re fine

I see no consequence some of it looks enticin’
She got her hands all over me and now that feeling’s what i’m fightin’
I’ve been told my whole life to stay away and read the writing
But it’s different in the moment and i wonder what it’s like and

Would 10 minutes of happiness turn into distress
Sometimes i wanna risk it all like i’m closest to death
Hear her calling her name and that’s her prettiest dress
Underneath the gold is darkness so she doesn’t impress

So tired of being torn and sittin’ on the fence
Is it right or is wrong can’t nobody confess
We’re all just running through life and everything is a guess
I don’t know what side i’m on in this deadly game of chess
