I know for once that it s starting over
A finer knowing, hate, and understanding in me
Because before I know that I was blinded
But I ve calmed down
And I ve got up
I m squinting to see

Everything that I missed
Every step that I tripped over
All that I care for
And all that I d die for
And overtime I look in your eyes
And now all this pain I realize

(Chorus)
That words like this
Is what seemed to break you down
And my smiles like this
Are what turned things around
And all of the songs I wrote (and all of the notes I wrote)
That seemed to keep things afloat
Now seem to be dragging me back down
With words like this

Still again I see the times we had the times we had
The fun, the laughs, the never broken dreams in me
But was it real? Was it sentimental?
Was it lies? Was it fake? A dream that I could see?

Everything that I missed
Every step that I tripped over
All that I care for
And all that I d die for
And overtime I look in your eyes
And now all this pain I realize
