it's been a while



And it's been a while...
since I could...
hold my head up high.
And it's been a while...
since I first saw you
And it's been a while...
since I could stand...
on my own two feet again.
And it's been a while...
since I could call you
And everything I can't remember,
As fucked up as it all may seem.
The consequences that are rendered,
I stretch myself beyond my means.
And it's been a while...
since I couldnt say...
that I wasnt addicted.
And it's been a while...
since I couldnt say...
I love myself as well.
And it's been a while...
since I've gone and...
fucked things up just like I always do.
And it's been a while...
but all that shit...
seems to disappear when I'm with you.
And everything I can remember,
As fucked up as it all may seem.
The consequences that I've rendered,
Have gone and fucked things up again.
Why must I feel this way.
Just make this go away.
Just one more peaceful day.

And it's been a while...
since I could
look at myself straight
And it's been a while...
since I said I'm sorry
And it's been a while...
since I've seen the way
the candles light your face
And it's been a while...
but I can still remember
just the way you taste
And everything I can remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
I know it's me
I can not blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me

And it's been a while...
since I could
hold my head up high
And it's been a while...
since I said I'm sorry...
