Words I Might Have Ate lyrics

Lyrics

Now it seems I can't keep my mind above you
My brain drifts back to better days we've been through
Like sitting on blacktop of school grounds
The love I bitched about I finally found

But now it's gone and I take the blame
And there's nothing I can do but take the pain
Why?

Now I dwell on what you remind me of
A sweet young girl who sacrificed her love
As for me... I am blind without a cause
And now I realize what I have lost

It was something real that I could have had
Now I play the fool whose stable soul's gone bad
Why?

Tell me the words I might have said
It's pumping pressure deep inside my head
Was it bad enough to be too late?
Just tell me [the words I might have ate.] [x3]

But now it's gone and I take the blame
And there's nothing I can do but take the pain
[Why?] [x7]
