Behind Me Lies Another Fallen Soldier - Lyrics by As I Lay Dying


Lyrics

i want to bring you all that is in my heart
i want to give you my everything
but i’ve failed you so many times
how can i stand here before you
when i begin to steal what only belongs to you
i am able to bring you nothing that isn’t already yours
i am so ashamed of what i ever called my own
take what i have, take these broken remains
what can i give you that you don’t already deserve
you laid down your life when i refused to give mine
