- For My Sake LyricsI 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. [x3]
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

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
