Lyrics

I rest my case
© Taylor Sappe 2017

Verse
The judge struck his gavel, stepped up to the bar.
And said "We all make mistakes".
Good ones, bad ones, you know who you are!
So let's just cut to the chase

Pre Chorus 1
My Time is short so I don't care
What you might say or think.
Heaven knows, wherever this goes
It's gonna call for a drink.

Chorus:
I rest my case, I rest my case
Blaming others for our mistakes
Will end in nothing but heartache and promise of pain.
We all make stupid mistakes.

I rest my case, I rest my case
We can’t blame others, for our mistakes
There will be nothing but heartache and nothing but pain
We all make stupid mistakes

Verse
Over the edge of a cardiac cliff
You're always playing tricks on my heart.
And now I must step up to the bar.
And it' won't be til death do us part

Pre Chorus 2
I've had my fill from the morning til
Every cow comes back home
Come dawn I'm gonna be gone
And you're gonna be all alone

Chorus
I rest my case, I rest my case
Blaming others for your mistakes
Will end in nothing but heartache and promise of pain.
We all make stupid mistakes.

I rest my case, I rest my case
We can’t blame others, for our mistakes
There will be nothing but heartache nothing but pain.
We all make stupid mistakes.

Verse
I've been coming up a little short of the mark
And I've been called a man with no heart.
I throw my briefcase onto the bed,
No cushion there to rest my weary head.

Pre-chorus 3
Litigation's an emotional drain.
When you fail to learn from your mistake.
One man’s loss is another man’s gain filled with
Nothing but heartache.

Chorus
I rest my case, I rest my case
Blaming others for my mistakes
Will end in nothing but heartache and promise of pain.
We all make stupid mistakes.

I rest my case, I rest my case
We can’t blame others, for our mistakes
There will be nothing but heartaches, nothing but pain.
We all make stupid mistakes.
