Shinedown - For My Sake lyrics

rate me

I remember like yesterday

You had a dream in your eyes and a smile on your face

And I'm missing those days again yeah I'm missing those days again

And I forgot what really got in the way

Maybe the sun that wouldn't shine should be taking the blame

Cause it's raining on me again yeah it's raining on me again

A paradox

The key you dropped

A manifest

For what you lost, was me

For my sake please...

Stop slowing me down, stop holding me up

Quit making a scene, enough's enough.

Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to last

So am taking you on, am 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.

Tell me something that's poetic at best

Make me believe there was a time that you weren't like the rest

And I'll never ask you again, and I'll never ask you again

For all the moments and the memories

No one could ever say we never had a history

But I'm leaving that all behind

And there is nothing gonna change my mind

A paradox

The key you dropped

A manifest

For what you lost, was me

For my sake please...

Stop slowing me down, stop holding me up

Quit making a scene, enough's enough.

Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to last

So am taking you on, am 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.

A paradox

The key you dropped

A manifest

For what you lost, was me

For my sake please...

Stop slowing me down

Stop holding me up

Stop slowing me down

Enough's enough

Stop slowing me down, stop holding me up

Quit making a scene, enough's enough.

Let's be honest, your promise, was never meant to last

So am taking you on, am 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.
