Heaven bent to take my hand And lead me through the fire Be the long awaited answer To a long and painful fight
Truth be told I've tried my best But somewhere along the way I got caught up in all there was to offer And the cost was so much more than I could bear
Though I've tried, I've fallen I have sunk so low I have messed up Better I should know So don't come round here And tell me I told you so
We all begin with good intent Love was raw and young We believed that we could change ourselves The past could be undone But we carry on our backs the burden Time always reveals The lonely light of morning The wound that would not heal It's the bitter taste of losing everything That I have held so dear.
I've fallen I have sunk so low I have messed up Better I should know So don't come round here And tell me I told you so Don't tell me i told you so
Heaven bent to take my hand With Nowhere left to turn I'm lost to those I thought were friends To everyone I know Oh they turned their heads embarassed Pretend that they don't see But it's one missed step You'll slip before you know it And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed
Though I've tried, I've fallen I have sunk so low I have messed up Better I should know So don't come round here And tell me I told you so Don't tell me I told you so
I have sunk so low Better I should know (repeat)
Don't tell me I told you so
I have sunk so low Better I should know (repeat) And tell me I told you so
