What I Meant To Say

Daughtry · Leave This Town [2009]

I woke up today sinkin' like the stones that you have thrown.

Wounded by the same old shots you take

It's easier to kick me when i'm low.



And I just thought that you should know

That i've been holding on while you've been letting go.

Well it's not too late to say it right this time

'Cause I know I said I'm sorry but that's not what I meant to say.



Strong enough to say

That I don't wanna take the high road now

This is soo typical of you to walk away

When your perfect little world is burning down.



And I just thought that you should know

That I've been holding on while you've been letting go

Can I be so bold?

'Cause all this sucking up to you's just getting old.

Well it's not too late to say it right this time

'Cause I know I said I'm sorry but that's not what I meant to say.



What I really meant to say, with every little breath I take

I'm not the only one who makes mistakes

Just think of all the ones you made.



And I just thought that you should know

That I've been holding on while you've been letting go

Can I be so bold?

'Cause all this sucking up to you'd just getting old.

Well, it's not too late to say it right this time

'Cause I know I said I'm sorry, but that's not what I meant to say.



Can I be so bold?

'Cause all this sucking up to you's just getting old.

Well, it's not too late to say it right this time

'Cause I know I said I'm sorry, but that's not what I meant to say.
