lyrics

Here I stand, I’ll take the blame,
Your words have brought me down.
You’re the one I’ve always loved,
But I’m not sure for you.
Here I stand, a fool I am,
You won’t let me forget.
You said too much, you took me down,
I am done, the bird has flown.

It’s all too much or is it now?
Once you showed your love somehow.
It’s all dead and gone today,
I’m not sure if I want to stay.
Tell me again how I’m a disgrace,
hit me with your words right down my face.
It hurts, it hurts, but I stand still,
sometimes I wish I couldn’t feel.
So again it’s all my fault,
and you’re the one that’s never wrong.
What you say is always true,
nothing’s ever back at you.

The guilt is mine and I know that,
my face is slowly turning red.
You can’t get enough or can you now?
I want to get out alive somehow.
It’s all too much or is it now?
Once you showed your love somehow.
It’s all dead and gone today,
I’m not sure if I want to stay.
Tell me again how I’m a disgrace,
hit me with your words right down my face.
It hurts, it hurts, but I stand still,
sometimes I wish I couldn’t feel.

And now it’s time to say goodbye,
it’s all too much but I don’t mind.
You’ve given me both good and bad,
but now it’s time to turn my head.

It’s all too much or is it now?
Once you showed your love somehow.
It’s all dead and gone today,
I’m not sure if I want to stay.
Tell me again how I’m a disgrace,
hit me with your words right down my face.
It hurts, it hurts, but I stand still,
sometimes I wish I couldn’t feel.
