I Was Only Temporary - my head is empty

What I thought was love has me falling apart Don't know if I can heal from this broken heart Didn't think my partner would ever give up on me Guess I made it hard when I wouldn't give in Looking back on all my selfishness and all my sin You were drowning in the darkness that made it so I couldn't see I wanna go back to the days when I wasn't afraid The good life with my wife and the family we made There was once a time when everything seemed alright So take me back to the time when I was a boy Before innocance was lost and police destroyed But that was all in the past and it was only temporary Now I gotta move, I gotta play my part Focus on my children and my music and art Life ain't gonna stop and wait for shit like me Learn from my regrets and I'll try to be A good man working hard with integrity I'm changing my perspective and that's what's gonna set me free I wanna look now to the world that I'm living in Time to stand up on my own and it's time to begin I'm only bound by the limits I set for myself I gotta have hope for the future no matter the case Looking forward with my dreams until I reach that place It doesn't matter if I fail cause life is only temporary And why do I have to do this on my own I cry, Lord why don't you just take me home Could you hand me the instructions please I've been pleading to you on my knees Yeah, you just tell me what to do I'll do my best to follow through Bam! I wanna look back on my life and let it all go Death is coming for us all but we'll never know When he's gonna catch us and take us to the other side I wanna have faith that I loved and I did my best Give me open arms or eternal rest But I know that day is gonna come I know that day is gonna come I know that day is gonna come Cause life is only temporary

I've been thinking 'bout my thoughtless words And I know just how much they must have hurt And I take it back Won't you let me take it back? You know I told you that I don't love you That I'd be better off with someone new But I take it back Won't you let me take it back? Girl, you know that I still love you And you know that I'm so alone I don't know why I told you that I didn't need you Can't you see that, baby, I was wrong? What I wouldn't give to be your lover again All I want to do is touch your skin, yeah If I had you right here right now Tell you, tell you, tell you, tell you Girl, you know that I still love you And you know that I'm so alone I don't know why I told you that I didn't need you Can't you see that, baby, I was wrong?

Looking back upon my life and the places that I've been Pictures, faces, girls that I've loved, I try to remember when Faded memories on the wall, some names I have forgotten But each one is a memory, I look back on so often I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there Looking back what I have done, there's lots more life to live At times, I feel overwhelmed, I question what I can give But I don't let it get me down or cause me too much sorrow There's no doubt about who I am, I always have tomorrow I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there Looking back upon my life (on my life) Faded memories upon the wall (on the wall) Looking now at who I am (who am I?) I don't let it get me down (I don't let it, get me down) Looking back upon my life and the places that I've been Pictures, faces, girls that I've loved, I try to remember when But I don't let it get me down or cause me too much sorrow There's no doubt about who I am, I always have tomorrow I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there

I saw you fell asleep While you were reading The pages on your face You had been weeping And I saw What it was That I had done But last night we fell apart And broke to pieces Our love was in the hall All packed in boxes And I saw what it was That I had done to you I was wrong I was wrong Yeah... I was wrong I was wrong Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh

Limb by limb and tooth by tooth Stirring up inside of me Every day, every hour I wish that I was bulletproof Wax me, mold me Heat the pins and stab them in You have turned me into this Just wish that it was bullet proof Was bullet proof So pay me money, take a shot Lead-fill the hole in me I could burst a million bubbles All surrogate and bullet proof And bullet proof And bullet proof Bullet proof
