|
I want you to know |
|
I needed time to rest. |
|
And, I must confess to you. |
|
I am hardest on myself. |
|
All I ever wanted was to try to do my best. |
|
And I want tell the truth now. |
|
I am unwell. |
|
After awhile, |
|
I just lay down. |
|
After awhile, my chin ain't up. |
|
Bare-knuckle fighter in the third round. |
|
After awhile, it's all bad luck.[Chorus] |
|
Save me. Save me from myself. |
|
Drowning in the wishing well. |
|
I will try to rise above. |
|
I am never good enough. |
|
I want you to know that |
|
I needed time alone. |
|
Don't you try to tell me that you really didn't know. |
|
All I ever wanted was to never leave this bed. |
|
And I want to tell the truth - my smile is just pretend. |
|
After awhile, |
|
I got sleepy. |
|
After awhile, safety lasted. |
|
After awhile, disenchanted. |
|
After awhile, |
|
I just fasted.[Chorus] |
|
After awhile, |
|
I just lay down. |
|
After awhile, my chin ain't up. |
|
Bare-knuckle fighter in the third round. |
|
After awhile, it's all bad luck.[Chorus] |
|
I'm no good for you. |
