Shinedown - For My Sake Lyrics
[Verse 1:]I remember like yesterdayYou had a dream in your eyes and a smile on your faceAnd I'm missing those days again yeah I'm missing those days againAnd I forgot what really got in the wayMaybe the sun that wouldn't shine should be taking the blameCause it's raining on me again yeah it's raining on me again[Bridge:]A paradoxThe key you droppedA manifestFor what you lost, was meFor my sake please...[Chorus:]Stop slowing me down, stop holding me upQuit making a scene, enough's enough.Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to lastSo I'm taking you on, I'm calling you out.There's nothing left for us here now.Let's be honest, I promise, I'm never lookin' back for my sake.For my sake.[Verse 2:]Tell me something that's poetic at bestMake me believe there was a time that you weren't like the restAnd I'll never ask you again, and I'll never ask you againFor all the moments and the memoriesNo one could ever say we never had a historyBut I'm leaving that all behindAnd there is nothing gonna change my mind[Bridge:]A paradoxThe key you droppedA manifestFor what you lost, was meFor my sake please...[Chorus:]Stop slowing me down, stop holding me upQuit making a scene, enough's enough.Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to lastSo I'm taking you on, I'm calling you out.There's nothing left for us here now.Let's be honest, I promise, I'm never lookin' back for my sake.For my sake.[Bridge:]A paradoxThe key you droppedA manifestFor what you lost, was meFor my sake please...Stop slowing me downStop holding me upStop slowing me downEnough's enough[Chorus:]Stop slowing me down, stop holding me upQuit making a scene, enough's enough.Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to lastSo I'm taking you on, I'm calling you out.There's nothing left for us here now.Let's be honest, I promise, I'm never lookin' back for my sake.I'm never lookin' back, for my sake.
