It's Been Awhile (Acoustic Live at Hiro Ballroom) - Staind

Written by：Aaron Lewis

It's been a while

Since I could

Hold my head up high

It's been a while

Since I first saw you

It's been a while

Since I could stand

On my own two feet again

It's been a while

Since I could call you

And everything I can remember

As f**ked up as it all may seem

Consequences that I've rendered

Have stretched myself beyond my means

It's been a while

Since I could say

That I wasn't addicted

It's been a while

Since I could say

I loved myself as well and

It's been a while

Since I've gone and f**ked things up

Just like I always do

It's been a while

But all that sh*t seems to disappear

When I'm with you

And everything I can remember

As f**ked up as it all may seem

Consequences that I've rendered

Gone and f**ked things up again

Again

Why must I feel this way

Just make this go away

Just one more peaceful day

It's been a while

Since I could

Look at myself straight

It's been a while

Since I said I'm sorry

It's been a while

Since I've seen the way

The candles light your face

It's been a while

But I can still

Remember just the way you taste

Everything I can remember

As f**ked up as it all may seem

To me I know this pain

Can I blame this on my father

He did the best he could for me

It's been a while

Since I could

Hold my head up high

It's been a while

Since I said I'm sorry
