this is your last song
i've wasted so much of my life just singing 'bout
an unworthy cause
and bitchin' 'bout how if you'd just grow up
we can mend things between us after all
i remember when you said,
"honey, you're what i'm going to want."
and i held tight to that imaginary person you had just made up
but the window is closed now and your time's run dry
and i have laid my best excuses out for the child in you to defy
but see it's been too hard and too long
and this battle can't be won
yeah, it's been too hard and too long and i'm done
you see, i'm at a loss for what to do
i've grown tired of chasing the good in you
and you say nobody knows you at all
but i think i do
and it's been so long now since i've heard your voice
and you would think that i had given up and made myself a choice
but see i'm different than anyone you've met
'cause i've been to hell and back
and giving chances out is my best way to cut myself some slack
but it's been too hard and too long and this battle can't be won
yeah, it's been too hard and too long and i'm done
i'm done
see i forgive you
(i forgive you)
yeah i forgive you
i forgive you
(i forgive you)
yeah i forgive you
