Lyrics
Looked in the mirror
wondered who is this face
with these lines so deep and wide
am I the same one who left so long ago
running away from what's inside
the road was longer then
so full of new horizons
it made it easy to leave
but it soon became so hard
upon myself oh god
I just forgot how it was and what you meant to me
just when I think that I know myself
I lose my way I change my path
It doesn't add up to who I am
my life and times, my sins my crimes
you can wish it all away
but that won't change our yesterday's
I guess its just the price I have to pay, to keep me sane.
woke up this morning with the sun on my face
still I feel so cold inside
I need to get back home to face my pain
so I'm off to catch a ride
there goes my airplane
my ride to ease my pain
there goes my easy release
well I seem to make it hard
upon myself, oh god
I go crazy, when I think of the time I've wasted
just when I think that I know myself
I lose my way I change my path
It doesn't add up to who I am
my life and times, my sins my crimes
you can wish it all away
but that won't change our yesterday's
I guess its just the price I have to pay, to keep me sane.
It dont' add up, it don't add up
it don't add up to me.
