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
