Ethan Butler - As We... lyrics

They say time is a healer But the clock has been ticking for years and I'm still broken After walking with a limp for so long I've grown fond of it It makes me hip, ya know People wanna know what's wrong, what happened, why I'm like this And I'm not bitter but I gotta answer their questions So I tell 'em, I tell 'em what you did to me, I tell 'em how it still hurts I tell 'em how much I've had to overcome and ya know what? They love me, they love me like you didn't, they tell me I was right I was a victim Even though I already know that it's nice to hear every once in a while I gotta remember I didn't do this to myself I gotta know it's okay to be like this It's not my fault I don't have a choice It's not my fault Why are you staring? Have you heard my story? You wanna know why I'm like this? Okay if you insist I guess I can tell you but it's Kinda hard to explain without giving you the whole story see... And I can't find the words to say Sweat drippin' heart racin' trying to explain That I'm broken, I'm broken And I'm scared, I'm bitter And forgiveness is like Breaking down the walls that I'm holing up So I give up And I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine (woah) And I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine And some people say get over it Let it go, like I can just unclench my fist and release Like I'm not reminded by every other thing I see It feels like a sick joke, like the whole world is taunting me Conversations and images cause my heart to connect the dots Back to memories I wish to forget And people will never understand why I flip at the sight of Christmas lights And I've tried to forgive you but I don't know what forgiveness is besides Some theoretical decision to pardon your sins and never speak with you again You may be forgiven but I'm still broken, I'm still broken And I've sought counsel and they tell me It's okay to be broken but no it's not I wanna be whole I wanna be whole And I can't find the words to say Sweat drippin' heart racin' trying to explain That I'm broken, I'm broken And I'm scared, I'm bitter And forgiveness is like Breaking down the walls that I'm holing up So I give up And I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine (woah) And I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name Thy kingdom come, thy will be done On earth as it is in heaven Give us this day our daily bread And forgive us our trespa**es... As we... For... forgive us our trespa**es... As we... A, as, as we... Forgive u, forgive us our tre... As we... I can't find the words I can't find the words I, I, I, I, I I I, I, I, I
