Proud

Pride has caught me again
Brought me down made me question who I am
can this really be the end?
Of a relationship too strong to trip,
Too weak to mend

I should've just carried on,
packed my things and accepted she was gone,
left the past all behind,
found a new muse to ease my troubled mind

But I was simply much too proud.
Why did I go over?
Reason says I should be anywhere but here, anywhere but here.
Well I took a chance and,
now I'm stuck wishing I was anywhere but here, anywhere but here.

Peace has numbed my insides,
Once were full but now hollow and sedate.
Familiar looks keep hope alive,
but the effort was too little, too late

Dont let her know I'd give anything
for the smile that brought love into my life.
How many songs do I have to sing,
to get back what I once knew was mine

But I am simply much too proud.
Why did I go over?
Reason says I should be anywhere but here, anywhere but here
well I took a chance
and now im stuck wishing
I was anywhere but here, anywhere but here.

And I'm not crying any longer
I am simply much too proud
Why did I go over?
Reason says I should be anywhere but here, anywhere but here.
Well I took a chance and
Now I'm stuck wishing I was anywhere but here, anywhere but here.
