It's been awhile
|
Since I could hold my head up high
|
Since I first saw you
|
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
|
Since I could call you
|
But everything I can't
|
remember as fucked up as it
|
all may seem the consequences
|
that I've rendered I've stretched
|
myself beyond my means
|
|
It's been awhile
|
Since I could say that I wasn't addicted
|
Since I could say I love myself as well
|
Since I've gone and fucked things
|
up just like I always do
|
But all that shit seems to
|
disappear when I'm with you
|
But everything I can't remember
|
as fucked up as it may seem
|
The consequences that I've rendered,
|
I've gone and fucked things up again.
|
Why must I feel this way
|
Just make this go away,
|
Just one more peaceful day
|
|
It's been awhile
|
Since I could look at myself straight
|
Since I said I'm sorry
|
Since I've seen the way
|
the candle lights your face
|
But I can still remember
|
just the way you taste
|
But everything I can't remember as
|
fucked up as it all may seem to be
|
I know it's me I cannot blame this on my
|
father he did the best he could for me
|
|
It's been awhile
|
Since I could hold my head up high
|
and it's been awhile since I said
|
I'm sorry
|
