I've Often Been Here- By Noerf

I've often been here,

Lying in the dark as I wonder,

Just what's brought me down,

what's brought me under.

I've often been here,

Where I think I've found the answers,

People long gone,

But I know I'm wrong.

Because

When I get up,

the sun doesn't shine

And all the things I know are mine,

they don't seem to matter anymore.

And it took me a while, to figure out,

What's causin' my heart this drought,

And why the things that made me happy now won't.

And I've come to the realization,

It's not what I have-

It's what I don't.

I've often been here,

Not knowing what to say, or what to do

When all I know is,

I can't survive without you.

I've often been here,

Running to the things that won't help me,

Away from the one place,

that I should be.

And

When I get up,

the sun doesn't shine

And all the things I know are mine,

they don't seem to matter anymore.

And it took me a while, to figure out,

What's causin' my heart this drought,

And why the things that made me happy now won't.

And I've come to the realization,

It's not what I have-

It's what I don't.

And I don't wanna run anymore,

I'm laying my heart down on the floor,

I'm sorry for never saying it before,

That

When I get up,

the sun doesn't shine

And all the things I know are mine,

they don't seem to matter anymore.

And it took me a while, to figure out,

What's causin' my heart this drought,

And why the things that made me happy now won't.

And I've come to the realization,

It's not what I have-

It's what I don't.

I've often been there,

I've often been there,

I've often been there,

And I don't wanna go there again.

I've often been there,

I've often been there,

I've often been there,

And I don't wanna go there again.
