| Hold on a minute now what did you say
|
| I know I’ve been distant, I work everyday
|
| But under the surface I know that’s a lie
|
| When I made excuses I could’ve made time
|
| I was fucked up, fucked up every night
|
| Cause I was fed up, fed up with my life
|
| Wait up, wait up tell me why he didn’t make it, make it through the night
|
| Now and then I think about the way you treated me
|
| Never happy or satisfied with anything
|
| It was easy to think that you never wanted me around
|
| Then again I think about the way I treated you
|
| Never listened to anything you ever said
|
| I would scream and shout just to drown you out but now I see that
|
| Bad habits never really die
|
| And only the good go too soon
|
| I wanted to reach you
|
| I swear that I tried
|
| But I couldn’t break my, couldn’t break my cocoon
|
| Break my cocoon, break my cocoon
|
| Only the good go too soon
|
| When I was a child I thought you didn’t care
|
| Cause when I came home you would never be there
|
| I climbed in the attic and that’s where I saw
|
| The box where you kept CD’s of all my songs
|
| Oh my god it makes sense now
|
| You never knew how to say you were proud
|
| Cause no one took the time to show you how
|
| And all I ever did was push you out
|
| Bad habits never really die
|
| And only the good go too soon
|
| I wanted to reach you
|
| I swear that I tried
|
| But I couldn’t break my, couldn’t break my cocoon
|
| Break my cocoon, break my cocoon
|
| Only the good go too soon
|
| And you said the sickness had already spread
|
| And I could not tell anyone
|
| You might not have much time left
|
| So what do I tell mom?
|
| How do I keep it inside
|
| That I knew this the whole time
|
| The weight of this is crushing me
|
| The doctor said you felt no pain
|
| And I was too late
|
| Bad habits never really die
|
| And only the good go too soon
|
| (Only the good go too soon)
|
| I wanted to reach you
|
| I swear that I tried
|
| But I couldn’t break my, couldn’t break my cocoon
|
| Break my cocoon, break my cocoon
|
| Only the good go too soon
|
| Only the good go too soon |
