I.O.U.

I owe you, but what comes to me is too long to say,

'cause I have been hiding the truth

Didn't thing I'd let you in all this shit.

But you know I wouldn't be here

If it wasn't for you, you see I've tried this on my own,

I owe you, imagine if I never got to see you again.

I'm gonna bite my tongue this time that you're speaking,

'cause you deserve the time of day.

I abused your kindness with my weakness, threw it in your

face.

Way to go, way to go, what a joke, I'm a joke,

If only you could see how I feel.

You bite your tongue this time that I'm screaming,

See, I ain't angry with you.

There's no escaping what I've done,

I hope you hear these words,

Lord, strike me down if any one of them's untrue.

You are the reason I am what I've become, I owe you.

Even though you don't want nothing, I owe you one.

Hand on heart, I don't think there's any other way to say this.

I admit being a prick didn't do me any favors,

I mean, I've been cool, every name under the sun's in my

eyes,

But it feels pitch black inside,

I swear I put you through so much, now I couldn't lie to you if

I try.

I admit acting a fool didn't do me any favors,

Imagine if I never got to see you again.

I bite my tongue this time that you're speaking,

'cause you deserve the time of day.

I abused your kindness with my weakness,

and threw it in your face.

Way to go, way to go, what a joke, I'm a joke,

If only you could see how I feel.

You bite your tongue this time that I'm screaming,

See, I ain't angry with you.

There's no escape in what I've done,

I hope you hear these words,

Lord, strike me down if any one of them's untrue.

See, you are the reason I am what I've become, I owe you.

Even though you don't want nothing, I owe you one.

Just be with me, let me speak to me,

I'm so sorry if I've drained you out.

That's why I love you,

And I hope you're glad you made me finally see

That I'm nothing without you

Just tell me, imma see you again?

I swear I'll bite my tongue this time that you're speaking,

'cause you deserve the time of day.

I abuse your kindness with my weakness,

and threw it in your face.

Way to go, way to go, what a joke, I'm a joke,

If only you could see how I feel.

You bite your tongue this time that I'm screaming,

See, I ain't angry with you.

There's no escape in what I've done,

I hope you hear these words,

Lord, strike me down if any one of them's untrue.

'cause you are the reason I am what I've become, I owe you.

Even though you owe me nothing, I owe you one.

But you owe me nothing, 'cause I owe you one.
