Lyrics

Just getting over the one I thought I loved
Felt so alone yet I still feel strong
I based my respect on the faith we have from above
And what we were about to do, it would be so wrong
What happened last night? Why couldn’t I just say ‘no’?
I know it couldn’t be right. Why didn’t I just get up and go?
So now I feel so ashamed. What kind of life do I lead?
I can’t escape the pain. I’ve planted a dirty seed.
Honesty, I tried that policy.
But in the end, I failed the test.
Seems my life right now is total hypocrisy.
Lately I act like I have no self-respect.
What happened last night? Why couldn’t I just say ‘no’?
I know it couldn’t be right. Why didn’t I just get up and go?
So now I feel so ashamed. What kind of life do I lead?
I can’t escape the pain. I’ve planted a dirty seed.
I got to get this together. I need to take control.
Can’t let nobody hurt my soul!
I need your help, Lord! Please erase my stains
So I won’t feel so much pain again.
What happened last night? Why couldn’t I just say ‘no’?
I know it couldn’t be right. Why didn’t I just get up and go?
So now I feel so ashamed. What kind of life do I lead?
I can’t escape the pain. I’ve planted a dirty seed.
Why couldn’t I just say ‘no’?
I know it couldn’t be right. Why didn’t I just get up and go?
So now I feel so ashamed. What kind of life do I lead?
I can’t escape the pain. I’ve planted a dirty seed.
