Verse 1
You said that you'd be there
And try to show that you care
You left me standin' here all alone
Just when I needed you
And thought that you would come through
I lifted my voice but you were gone
Pre-Chorus
You should have saved me
Taken my hand because I believed
That I could trust in you
Chorus
I can't remain in this state of sufferin'
When I start to think of all the things that should have been...
1st chorus end
...You can't hold me back, 'cause I am not giving in
When I start to think of all the things that should have been
2nd and 3rd chorus
...You can't hold me back, but I have got to forgive
I can't live my life in all the things that should have been
Verse 2
If you could come inside
I'd show you what's in my mind
Then maybe you would see just in time
That every single thing
That you have done affects me
I prayed that you'd hear my silent cries
Bridge
You should have been more than just lies
Following the want in your eyes
Holdin' on, not for long, you've turned all that's right to wrong
I've shed soft tears and goodbyes
Thinkin' of how all this time you've lied, and now you've left, your promises, behind
