Since you've been gone I've been away
From here and now, from yesterday
The lies that it took to keep you around
So I held your hand we talked about our life of sin and giving in and
Sometimes, even God forgets
I've come to save you but I couldn't remember your face
So I closed my eyes and called out your name
When I found you you were slipping away
So I had to do what was best for you
A year spent alone but I couldn't stay
Once I lost my soul, I found my way
Back to the place I started with you
Where we realized what we would do
With a mended heart, a brand new start and
The words back, we never ment to say
And I've come to save you but I couldn't remember your face
So I closed my eyes and called out your name
When I found you you were slipping away
So I had to do what was best for you
Lies that they gave you were the same as the promise I made
You did nothing wrong but you were ashamed
When I heard they would give you away
Well I had to do what's best for you
Say it, say what you needed to say
You know you'll feel better now
And hate me, hate me for all of the ways, I let you down
In search of you I've lost my self, (In search of you I've lost myself)
I've lost my self
So don't you feel better now
Don't you feel better now
And I've come to save you but I couldn't remember your face
So I closed my eyes and called out your name
When I found you you were slipping away
So I had to do what's best for you
Lies that they gave you were the same as the promise I made
You did nothing wrong but you were ashamed
When I heard they would give you away
Well I had to do what's best for you
And I've come to save you but I couldn't remember your face
So I closed my eyes and called out your name (You did nothing wrong)
When I found you you were slipping away
Cause I had to do what's best for you
Lies that they gave you were the same as the promise I made (The promise I made)
You did nothing wrong but you were ashamed (You did nothing wrong)
When I heard they would give you away
I've come to save you but I couldn't remember your face
So I closed my eyes and called out your name
When I found you you were slipping away
So I had to do what's best
Lies that they gave you were the same as the promise I made
You did nothing wrong but always took blame
You know you've forgoten my name
I'll still do whats best for you
