And it's been awhile
Since i could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since i first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since i could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile
Since i could call you

And 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

And it's been awhile
Since i can say that i wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile
Since i can say i love myself as well
And it's been awhile
Since i've gone and fucked things up just like i always do
And it's been awhile
But all that shit seems to disappear when i'm with you

And everything i can't remember
As fucked up as it all 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!

And it's been awhile
Since i could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile
Since i said i'm sorry
And it's been awhile
Since i've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile
But i can still remember just the way you taste

And 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

And it's been awhile
Since i could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since i said i'm sorry
