The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I tried to tell you things that I did wrong
Hoping that my story
Would maybe change your mind
You looked at me and you just shook your head
Saying you don't understand a single word I just said
You say you're not in trouble at all
You have it all figured out so far
CHORUS
Am I wasting my words?
'Cause I've been where you are
Don't make the mistake that I have made
Please listen to me with all of your heart
'Cause I've been where you are
Been where you are
When you were young I could kiss away your tears
But now you cry and you're blinded by the things you do
Don't ignore the Voice that you once heard
He's whispering your freedom
It's time for you to begin
You say you're not in trouble at all
You have it all figured out so far
BRIDGE
You yelled at me
You called me names
You slammed the door in my face
Won't you let me in I can't break through
Can my words be enough for you
For you
You see the truth is I love you
Too much to give up on you
I won't give up on you
I won't give up on you
I love you
