There's things I know,
I should have mentioned sooner,
But I didn't, know how.
I'm sorry I lost you.
I never thought that this [bad word] between us,
I know, It's water and bridges now.
But what's the sense of carrying around this weight?
These words are tearing me apart.
 [bad word] 
That's enough for the back to break,
That's an awful lot to take,
But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away.
And that's the sign of a solemn man, I make the best of the best I can.
And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance.

That face, I know exactly what you're thinking,
But I'm certain this time, it's different,
Thats why I can't pretend that everything is mending.
I know, I've tried to for too long now.
But what's the sense of carrying around this weight.
These words are tearing us apart.
 [bad word] 
That's enough for the back to break,
That's an awful lot to take,
But I've been paying for it since I drove my girl away.
And that's the sign of a solemn man, I make the best of the best I can.
And I'll be better for it if I ever get my chance.

Oh save me from a grey life,
Oh save me from a grey life,
I've paid the price with my soul,
Oh save me.
 [bad word] Break]

If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
If I ever get my chance
