lyrics
I’ve fallen short of what I think I should be
Screwed up to the highest degree.
Yeah what I used to be, no that isn’t me. No
No throwing stones, I messed it up on my own
If you see me struggle then my cover is blown
I know I’m not alone, but there’s no excuse for that.
And it’s not the first time and it will not be the last
But I’m willing to fight, and stand up for my past
I’ll lay my life down and I’ll give it to you
Cause you’re the strength I need to get me through, all these
Battles I choose, win or lose, or run.
But I, won’t run I want to see this one through
And we both know it’s the hard thing to do
But you’ve captured my heart, and I can’t explain that.
And it’s not the first time and it will not be the last
But I’m willing to fight, and stand up for my past
Dear Abby won’t you read my mind and say just what I need
They say your heart can change your mind based off of what you read.
Letting go was a hard thing to do
but I want to reach out I want to review
the mistakes that I’ve made, and I can’t explain that.
