I sit here and stare at the water
Thinking 'bout what to do.
A daddy walks by with his daughter
I think to myself, don't you wish that was you.
Broken before my eyes
Before I had a chance to save it.
Spoken was only my lies
And even that wasn't enough to quit.
I stood by and watched them go
Torn apart by my lies.
I should have taken the blow
And stopped what was happening before my eyes.
I should have been there
To stop the problems.
But I found no air
That would stop them.
Broken before my eyes
Before I had a chance to save it.
Spoken was only my lies
And even that wasn't enough to quit.
I knew what I had done
And I faced the outcome.
I wanted to run
But I was afraid of what I had become.
My lies were not the problem
It was the person who told them.
I wish I had known that
Before I had told them.
