My new favorite song...
"And I'm good, good, good to go : I got to get away : Get away from all of my mistakes
So here I sit looking at the traffic lights : The red extinguishes the hope that the green ignites
I want to run away I want to ditch my life : Cause all of my mistakes keep me awake at night
And after all of my alibis desert me : I just want to get by : I don't want nothing to hurt me : I had no idea where my head was at
But if my heart says I'm sorry can we leave it at that : Because I just want for all of this to end
And I so hate consequences : And running from you is what my best defense is : Consequences : God, don't make me face up to this...
Cause I know that I let you down : And I don't want to deal with that...
It just now hit me this is more than just a set back : And when you spelled it out, well, I guess I didn't get that : And every trace of momentum is gone : And this isn't turning out the way I want...
And I spent all last night : Tearing down : Every stoplight : And stop sign in this town : Now I think there might : Be no way to stop me now : I'll get away despite : The fact I'm so weighed down
All of my escapes have been exhausted : I thought I had a way but then I lost it : And my resistance was once much stronger : And I know I can't go on like this much longer
When I got tired of running from you : I stopped right there to catch my breath : There your words caught my ears : You said, "I miss you son. Come home" : And my sins, they watched me leave And in my heart I so believed : The love you felt for me was mine The love I'd wished for all this time : And when the doors were closed : I heard no I told you so's : I said the words I knew you knew : Oh God, Oh God I needed you : God all this time I needed you, I needed you
Yeah I think one of the reasons why I like this song so much is bkus it reminds me of my dad... |
