I’m holding back my own hair now
‘Cause you don’t even want to hold my hand
I can’t change the person I was before I met you
I can’t change where I’ve been
But how could I have told you when you didn’t want to hear it?
And how can I tell you now if you don’t want to listen?
I wasn’t always the person that I am now
But I worked so hard to get here
And all I want is for you to hear me out
Or am I singing to a crowd of new deaf ears?
I haven’t always been quite this innocent
But I worked so hard to get here
The road to recovery was a long one, in case you wanna know
I was reduced to nothing but my shell
While trying to find someone who would love the exterior
Well, I subsequently destroyed my inner self
But how could I have told you when you didn’t want to hear it?
And God, I really need this now, so tell me that you’ll listen
I wasn’t always the person that I am now
But I worked so hard to get here
And all I want is for you to hear me out
Or am I singing to a crowd of new deaf ears?
I haven’t always been quite this innocent
But I worked so hard to get here
I fell for a trick and fell into the trap of a thief’s bed
Who stole what I’ve known, corrupted my bones and left me there for dead
He borrowed my body until my skin started rotting through my head
I woke up alone and these jutting bones were all that I had left
I was all that I had left
And I felt totally inept
I tried to use my body to connect
That gaping hole right through my chest
But I was nothing but rotting flesh
No, I was nothing but rotting flesh
Confused, I cried and wept
For God to take me back
I wasn’t always the person that I am now
But I worked so hard to get here
