I Was Right Lyrics - Smoking Popes

I wasted so much more than time 

And the one with whom I was as one 

Has now undone what came to be known as our love 

Which could not contain all that which she'd become 

I was flat out wrong 

And with both hands on the days gone by 

I gripped my eyes wide open 

Because I can't sleep at night 

The world is much too cold 

Without someone there to hold me or to hold 

That's the way it goes 

And I always thought that I would die 

If you ever told me goodbye 

But it wasn't until tonight 

Tonight, I found out I was right 

I wasted almost all my life 

Being so afraid to fail I hardly tried 

I found a place to hide 

I dove into you 

I swam around, around inside 

But I'm not the boy that you destroyed 

I'm stronger than he was 

I had to be, to survive 

I'm lucky to be alive 

The me you left behind 

Is still lying there 

With his eyes froze open wide 

And I always thought I would die 

If you ever told me goodbye 

But it wasn't until tonight 

Tonight, I found out I was right
