Though I have strayed from you
Though I have fallen from grace
I am back on higher ground
Up from that lonely place

And I have found the going tough
And you have suffered long enough
But now I am undoin' this cruel stage
That I've been going through

These words they come hard
I've tried to make them live
I carve them from a humbleness
I'm not familiar with

And though I have built a world
Made out of panes of glass
I won't shatter yours no more
With a pain that lasts

And I have found the going tough
But I will find the strength enough
And I am undoin' this cruel stage
That I've been going through

I didn't mean to hurt you
No, that's not what I meant
Now I mean to alert you
Of my true intent

So take me for what I'm worth
Though it may not amount to much
I'm climbin' from this abyss
And get me back in touch

And I have found the going tough
You, you have suffered long enough
But now I am undoin' this cruel stage
That I've been going through
And now I am undoin' this cruel stage
That I've been going through
