It was wishful thinking on my part
To think that what I said was the right thing to say at the right time and place
Oh so many mistakes I’ve made throughout the years
Made with so little grace yet so much fear
I could’ve just held my tongue and been a good son who met up to expectations
But I was just a lowly rebel who only wanted his liberation
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/beach_baby/gave_in_crd.html ]
I should’ve just
Gave In
It would’ve been
So much easier
But I am unfortunately exactly who I am
You say I could be less broken but I know it’s just surface you see
My heart would not be anymore rewarded my soul would not be any better off
But you just scoff at all my dreams, but nothing is as it seems
The strange boy from up on the street could sitting in the king’s seat
I should’ve just
Gave In
It would’ve been
So much easier
The darkness creeps up on everyone but my weapon is to reveal it’s power
to show it all to make you cower beneath it all
so that you’d see that it’s just routine and the darkness won’t seem so gleam.
My words were never an attempt to bring lasting despair they were just a vaccine but you
wouldn’t care.
You would rather remain blind to the onslaught but if you face head on it’s really just
in the thought.
And I know that I sounds strange and your opinions of me have probably not changed for better
but no regrets no regrets cause if you love where you or where you’re going then why
regret anything?
I should’ve just
Gave In (but I didn’t)
It would’ve been
So much easier (I’d hate myself)
I should’ve just
Gave In (but I didn’t)
It would’ve been
So much easier (I’d probably kill myself)
