Henry Rollins Rejection Lyrics

Rejection Lyrics

I had it wrong for so long in my head
I was walking around like I was dead
All the time my mind was stuck on you

I crawled while you stalled
I was a fool to think we were involved
I guess I needed to believe it so bad

Rejection never felt so good
All the things unclear are now
so well understood
At first I didn`t see it as kind
But you did me a favor
when you left me behind

You might not believe it but it`s true

It`s all the things you never said that told me
all about you
It`s things you try to conceal that get revealed

I had to get it wrong before I got it right
I`m not the kind of argue,
I`m not the kind to fight
By the time I got to the truth
I had reached the end

Now I see how you are
Now I see how it is
Now I see what you do
I watch them line up
I watch them fall down
One after one
I see your smile grow and grow
I think to myself
It could`ve been me

Now I`m alone and I`m burning
I`m hurting like hell but I`m learning
The scars will take me far like they always do

Somehow I`m alright I do believe that I`m alright
