I would've done it all for you But instead I couldn't stay You took to much, got too high You pushed me far away I wanted to do life with you You made me feel at home With you I was never alone Bars, pills, coke, drinking and driving You never could do anything just once Had to keep on trying Not proud to say at one point I didn't really mind Until I woke up and saw I could be next in line I did my best, "babe please stop I want the best for you." I thought it helped until I realized you just kept on lying I know I'm not a saint But I am able to say no Gotta admit you're the reason I've grown I just wish we could've grown together But like a rose not every flower blooms at the same time You were the blue in my sky and the light in my eyes That's something you should know I hope you take good care of yourself Maybe one day we'll find our way back home

I'm no longer the person i used to be I'm beginning to lose sight of my dreams a cloudy haze covers the skies it seems all I’ve ever been told are a bunch of lies My thoughts go deeper than my eyes can see when is enough enough when is too much too much? When do I need to think about how I should be I think I think more than most Maybe thats a problem in its own The tide pulls the ocean up to the shore just to my toes, just to my feet next thing you know the water is up to my knees I've never been good at saying no always been one to go with the flow But what will I do when the water is up to my chin and I just then remember I can not swim
