I've Become Something
Corey Crowder Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I watched the time tick away, I'm dying to stay
I'm begging you see this through
Six words were said and one colored red
But that was the last time

And I've done all I can to be the man that you want me to be
And I've done all I know to try to show you that
I've become something you might be interested in
I've become something you might be interested in

Yeah, the damage is done
And I am the one that needed to leave things
But try to look down the line
When our stars will shine the way that they should be

And I've done all I can to be the man that you want me to be
And I've done all I know to try to show you that

I've become something you might be interested in
I've become something you might be interested in

Don't come back crying, don't come back crying to me
If you don't give it a chance

I've become something you might be interested in




I've become something you might be interested in
And I've become something and I've become something, something
