Lyrics

Living with Me
© Dennis Asiimwe, Nancy Kaawe, Raymond Byabazaire 2001

Verse
Why do I keep doing this to myself
Keeping these memories on a shelf
Like souvenirs from a painful place
Like a show of my falling from grace

Why do I keep pushing into my wake
Vivid flash backs of every mistake
People I've hurt have long forgiven
And everyone else has forgotten

Chorus
My body fights against me
My mind won't let me be free
My heart holds on to what's gone
It's so hard LIVING WITH ME

Verse
So deaf to my own apologies
So numb to this weight upon my knees
When I have paid, oh how I have paid
Will I ever rise from this bed I made?

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge
It can't be easy what remains
Of my beaten conscience
Because losing you
Can I ever take back hurting you
I could never do worse
Never can be worse than this
No, LIVING WITH ME can't be easy for me

(Repeat Chorus)
