Has Been by Widmore Lyrics
[Verse 1: Ruel James & Jeremy Richardson]
I never meant for things to go down like this
So underplay and I'll be fine
I hope you're happy
When you look back
And see you never really had a choice
Of where you're going and how to get there
But your lack of control
Has left you stranded without
(hope of rescue)
[Chorus 1: Ruel James]
Oh, why have I always been so blind?
There's no saving you
With so much left uncertain
Will you please just let me...
[Verse 2: Jeremy Richardson & Ruel James]
...lie here waiting
For the waves to come and take me away
I've always wanted to really know
If I'm afraid of sinking
I want to feel like I've done more than I could
(To be honest I'm hoping that I)
Will be misunderstood
How can I fix myself
When everything around me seems to fade?
It comes in waves while I let it take me under
(But it makes me wonder)
[Chorus 2]
[Hook: Ruel James & Jeremy Richardson]
...lie here waiting
I understand that I am not worth saving
I'm well aware and I know
How hard it gets
When you get lost
Still finding out
How dark it gets
I never figured it out
I think I'll figure it out
But to be honest
I'm already falling short
[Bridge]
[End: Ruel James & Jeremy Richardson]
Tell me why
If you're so god damn alone then why waste time
In believing I'm still coming home when I'm not?
Calm down
Let it all out
I want you to be safe
I want you to be proud
Whether or not
I recognize it
My demons they somehow still know where to find me
I never meant for things to go down like this
So underplay and I'll be fine
I hope you're happy
When you look back
And see you never really had a choice
Of where you're going and how to get there
But your lack of control
Has left you stranded without
(hope of rescue)
[Chorus 1: Ruel James]
Oh, why have I always been so blind?
There's no saving you
With so much left uncertain
Will you please just let me...
[Verse 2: Jeremy Richardson & Ruel James]
