THIS TIME
This time I’m not gonna turn away
When you put your hand out to me
This time I’m not gonna turn away
I’m gonna stay put and listen to what you say this time
I’ve been on the go for so long, avoiding getting stronger
There’s nothing left for me to say
You’re all right, and I’m all wrong
But in your silence I can hear all your voices
We all see, and we all hear my bad choices
But its great to realize that youre all there beside me this time
I only hope that I can pay you all back someday
Things are looking just a little bit better
It’s been hard, but its ok…its ok
I’ve been on the go for so long, avoiding getting stronger
There’s nothing left for me to say
You’re all right, and I’m all wrong
But its ok…
