It seems so long ago I made a promise to myself I wouldn't let you hurt me Or let it come from somewhere else But now as I feel the pain I can see what I've lost and what I haven't gained I, I failed myself I failed myself chorus I failed myself Cuz I was blind of all I couldn't see All the pain and hurt that came flying at me I, I failed myself I failed myself When all those gracious hands were reaching up high All I seemed to do was lie back and cry I, I failed myself I failed myself It seems so long ago I felt the same I feel right now The struggling emotions Of distaste, not knowing how But now let confusion rise I can see all mistakes and all your perfect lies I, I failed myself I failed myself chorus I failed myself Cuz I was blind of all I couldn't see All the pain and hurt that came flying at me I, I failed myself I failed myself When all those gracious hands were reaching up high All I seemed to do was lie back and cry I, I failed myself I failed myself All of those times I broke down for you All of those nights I prayed your words would hold true I, I fooled myself All of those times I took another lie All of those nights I reduced to cry I, I lost myself And all of those dreams I kept alive for you Everything for us because I wanted to I, I failed myself I failed myself chorus I failed myself Cuz I was blind of all I couldn't see All the pain and hurt that came flying at me I, I failed myself I failed myself When all those gracious hands were reaching up high All I seemed to do was lie back and cry I, I failed myself I failed myself Because of you, I failed myself
