Lyrics It's Been Awhile (Live) - Staind
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
could
hold
my
head
up
high
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
first
saw
you
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
could
stand
on
my
own
two
feet
again
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
could
call
you
And
everything
I
can't
remember
As
fucked
up
as
it
all
may
seem
The
consequences
that
I've
rendered
I
stretched
myself
beyond
my
means
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
can
say
that
I
wasn't
addicted
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
can
say
I
love
myself
as
well
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I've
gone
and
fucked
things
up
just
like
I
always
do
And
it's
been
awhile,
but
all
that
shit
seems
to
disappear
when
I'm
with
you
And
everything
I
can't
remember
As
fucked
up
as
it
all
may
seem
The
consequences
that
I've
rendered
I've
gone
and
fucked
things
up
again
Why
must
I
feel
this
way?
Just
make
this
go
away
Just
one
more
peaceful
day
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
could
look
at
myself
straight
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
said
I'm
sorry
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I've
seen
the
way
the
candles
light
your
face
And
it's
been
awhile,
but
I
can
still
remember
just
the
way
you
taste
And
everything
I
can't
remember
As
fucked
up
as
it
all
may
seem
to
be
I
know
it's
me
I
cannot
blame
this
on
my
father
He
did
the
best
he
could
for
me
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
could
hold
my
head
up
high
And
it's
been
awhile,
since
I
said
I'm
sorry
