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
