Tourniquet - Bearing Gruesome Cargo lyrics

rate me

This is why I am the way that I am

This is why I am the way that I am

This is why I am the way that I am

This is why I am the way that I am

You know I'm carrying with me

Over twenty years of pity

My whole personality

Was formed by others, not me

When I look back on my life

One that's always filled with strife

I rode down a bad course

Nobody's fault but yours

My step always threw me right down the stairs

So forgive me when I do the same thing to you

I know it must seem like you're daddy never cares

But if you knew what I've been through

You'd do the same thing too

Well I can't make a move

Without draggin' all my baggage

My father always cursed

So firgive me for my language

Please excuse me for yelling

Pardon me for telling you to stop

Selling to me your God in Heaven

This is why I am the way that I am

This is why I am the way that I am

If I can keep this up for the rest of my days

I may never have to take responsability

For my ways
