I can't be there for everyone
Sometimes things happen to come undone
I feared the battles that can't be won
But it is not my thoughts that are killing me
I finally learned how to set you free
 
Life on the fast track
We'll never be going back
Back to the times our friendship didn't have a single crack
Back to the times with the future bright but not gray and black
With all of life's time before us and not a thing to lack
But now you're gone because of me -  and it is my fault
I tried to safe you but I was too late, I just fell short
Short of luck, short of time and short of strength
Now you're watching over me from up there - damn
But I beg you, at least forgive me for what I've done
I promise to cherish your memory and carry on
I promise to be a better man, but you have to understand
I can't quit it all, cause this is what I meant when I said
We're on the edge and I'm only trying to prevent the fall
But with you leaving this life has taken too big of a toll
I hope somebody else can hear my call
Cause I guess, I guess I can't be a hero to all - yeah
 
I can't be there for everyone
Sometimes things happen to come undone
I fear the battles that can't be won
But it is not my thoughts that are killing me
I finally learned how to set you free
 
You would be proud of me if you could see what we've reached
All the pillars of injustice and transgression breached
We're a team now, there's a cause to this
Not a day goes by that you're not greatly missed
I know there would've been a place for you
And if I had the time I would've explained to you
What happened to me in the five years that I was away and gone
I tried to get back home I was constantly on the run
From things this verse cannot even convey
Driven by survival, feelings I had to keep at bay 
Suffering under grave conditions, had to find a way
To escape this hell of an Island just to life another day - hey
Just to live another day
Just to live another day

I can't be there for everyone
Sometimes things happen to come undone
I fear the battles that can't be won
But it is not my thoughts that are killing me
I finally learned how to set you free
 
Since you left my life's been going up and down
No smile on my face mostly you can see me frown
The team's there but it's not the same without you
I hate myself for what I didn't do - yeah
Memories still haunt me from the time when I was lost
And even though I was so far away our paths still crossed
I was right behind you but I couldn't let you see me
And you believe me - that was hard as hell and never easy
I fought ghosts from the past before
Old skeletons that came back knocking at my door
But I haven't felt so guilty cause I know it never will be you 
And me again though I can't forget that this is still me
I need to find a way for me to come clean to accept what is and what could have been
Even though you give your all you can't always win
Cause an honest mistake is hardly ever a sin

I can't be there for everyone
Sometimes things happen to come undone
I fear the battles that can't be won
But it is not my thoughts that are killing me
I finally learned how to set you free
