Where did I go wrong? Was it something I said?
I never got a choice in the matter with a gun to my head/
But I guess it doesn’t matter I’m not done with you yet/
You want more but you’ve already got my love and respect/
You took the credit when I just wanted to pay homage/
Now I’m indebted to you for how much I made off it/
And however many times that I say sorry/
You’ve already got my heart, what else can you take from me?
The pain has been draining my inspiration/
All I’ve got is a blank page and too little patience/
I’ve been staring into space but I’m sick of waiting/
For change to come so we debate if it’s in creation/
I know it’s always been a love/hate relationship/
But it wasn’t meant to be a one-way dictatorship/
And who knows, maybe someday we’ll make it big/
But lately it’s become strained and paper thin
Don’t leave me/
I’m down on my knees/
I beg and I plead /
Believe me/
Don’t leave me/
I’m working for free/
I cry, sweat and bleed/
Believe me
Wait, believe me, I can change/
I’ll do anything you want, I just need another day/
Don’t leave me, this time I mean it when I say/
I will never let you down, you’re the reason that I stayed/
You say it’s too late and I’m leading you astray/
All my demons unleash but you’re keeping them at bay/
I haven’t been eating or sleeping and I’m late/
To work where I worry I won’t even get a break/
You’ve always been there for me, reality or fantasy/
You’ve always been prepared for me when I was too scared to be/
I was quick to introduce you to my family/
But it’s no secret your friends were never a fan of me/
I always put you first, tell me why it wouldn’t work/
Going from one ex to the next, I guess I should have learned/
I was only being cold to try and cool the burn/
But that’s what I get for falling in love with your foolish words
Don’t leave me/
I’m down on my knees/
I beg and I plead /
Believe me/
Don’t leave me/
I’m working for free/
I cry, sweat and bleed/
Believe me
Please don’t tell me it’s over/
Don’t go, I promise I’ll get help when I’m sober/
You know that I never do as well as a loner/
And hell, I know I never called your cell but I wrote ya/
Every single day, I just didn’t send them out/
I guess I was scared you would think I let you down/
It’s too late to turn around and I miss your very sound/
But the only time I hear you now is if I hit the town/
I’m willing to work on myself and be a better man/
If it means you’ll stay, I know you’ve been in many hands/
After all these years, I still read your letters and/
It hurts knowing that I probably won’t even get a chance/
This transition feels more like a fade to black/
I don’t work on verses just for you to say it’s whack/
Now my heart breaks every time I make a track/
Forgive me music, I just want you take me back
Don’t leave me/
I’m down on my knees/
I beg and I plead /
Believe me/
Don’t leave me/
I’m working for free/
I cry, sweat and bleed/
Believe me
