This Lifetime Has Taken Too Long

Picture perfect lifestyles do not exist, I know that shit
Got caught up in the frivolous pursuit of it
Complicating matters never heeded
And I was never there when you needed me
Told you I was busy, but of course we know, that's a lie
Told you I was scared bout the family life, fuck
What I was supposed to do when feelings that we had were true
Guess I never found the proper way to really love you
Sorry that I wasn't there when the drugs took over
Sorry that I wasn't there when you got sober
Sorry that I wasn't there when the drugs took over
Sorry that I wasn't there when you got sober

Tying up these loose ends
Lack of closure kills me, slowly
Asphyxiating on your collection of sorrows
Dreading the way that I'll feel tomorrow
Tying up these loose ends
Lack of closure kills me, slowly
Asphyxiating on your collection of sorrows
Dreading the way that I'll feel tomorrow

Forgive me for the past, but please do not forget it
Righting all my wrongs, there, I finally said it
Reality does not reflect the character I wanna be
I'm working on myself from here on out, that's spoken prophecy
Blocked calls and missed Facetimes
Are the opposite of what I had for us in mind
Cross your T's and dot your I's
Tonight's the night I rectify
The past, the present, the future, my mission
The words I speak that come into fruition
My life, my music, my feelings, my thoughts
The times that you and I had fought
Sorry that I wasn't there when the drugs took over
Sorry that I wasn't there when you got sober
Sorry that I wasn't there when the drugs took over
Sorry that I wasn't there when you got sober

Tying up these loose ends
Lack of closure kills me, slowly
Asphyxiating on your collection of sorrows
Dreading the way that I'll feel tomorrow
Tying up these loose ends
Lack of closure kills me, slowly
Asphyxiating on your collection of sorrows
Dreading the way that I'll feel tomorrow
