It's Been Awhile Lyrics

And it's been a while since I could hold my head up high
And it's been a while since I first saw you
And it's been a while since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been a while since I could call you

And everything I can remember
Is fucked up as it always seemed
The consequences that are rendered
I stretched myself beyond my means

And it's been a while since I couldn't say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been a while since I couldn't say I loved myself as well
And it's been a while since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
And it's been a while but all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you

And everything I can remember
Is fucked up as it always seemed
The consequences that are rendered
Gonna fuck things up again, again

Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day

And it's been a while since I could look at myself straight
And it's been a while since I said I'm sorry
And it's been a while since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been a while but I can still remember just the way you taste

And everything I can remember
Is fucked up as it always seemed (to me I know this place)
Can I blame this on my father?
He did the best he could for me

And it's been a while since I could hold my head up high
And it's been a while since I said I'm sorry
