Verse
Excuse my indiscretion, I know it's hard to take, with so much on the line I couldn't leave this all to fate
My hands are barely clean, my head's above the wake, I'm treading water but I'm so far from shore, I can't be saved
Chorus
I can't stand to reason for all of my mistakes...it's getting harder to accept the price that I had to pay...
I haven't learned a lesson and I can't bear the wait...it's getting harder not to let myself get carried away
Post-Chorus
And I'll always be the catalyst - the enemy
I'm the patriarch of suffering
There's no medicine - no remedy
It's just the consequence of my unraveling
Verse
This life it ain't so simple, obscene and filled with doubt, locked in a barricade, where there's no way in - no way out
I've dreamt of better days, I've dreamt of going far, I know I've lost my way, but these same old habits die hard
Chorus
I can't stand to reason for all of my mistakes...it's getting harder to accept the price that I had to pay...
I haven't learned a lesson and I can't bear the wait...it's getting harder not to let myself get carried away
Post-Chorus
I am resistant to self reformity
So damn consistant with my unraveling
No man can withstand this kind of agony
Surrounded, resentment and bitter suffering
Bridge/Outro
Now I'm treading water...but I'm so far from shore I can't be saved
