One Too Many Times
Suicidal Tendencies Lyrics

Never good at talking, so many things I couldn't say
I have difficulty expressing my emotions and thoughts through words

But those thoughts never went away
However, my feelings and thoughts remain persistent and reoccurring

And I'm sure you remember, said that all I wanted was sympathy
I recall communicating that I only desired to be understood and supported

Now add this to your memory
Please retain this additional piece of information for future reference

Too many times-I felt so sad and lonely
There were an abundance of moments where my emotions weighed heavily on me which led me to feel isolated

Too many times-I needed someone there
I longed for somebody to be there for me during those immense moments of despair

Too many times-I tried to tell you something
Frequently I attempted to express my feelings to you

Too many times-It seemed like no one cared
However, it appeared that my expressions were disregarded and my emotions were unacknowledged

And I don't like asking-and it's not easy to say-
It is a challenge for me to request assistance or articulate my needs

I never learned how to pray
I was never taught to pray or to communicate with a higher power

So if you have a moment it means so much to me oh can't you see-
Therefore, I implore you to spare some time for me as it would mean a lot

If you'd just say a prayer for me
I ask that you consider voicing a prayer on my behalf

Too many times-I didn't even have a second
There were instances where I didn't even have time for myself, let alone others

Too many times-you thought I was much too strong
You had assumed I was capable of handling situations alone, without support

Too many times-you said the feeling wouldn't last forever
Numerous times, you assured me that challenging emotions will fade with time

Too many times-I proved you so damn wrong
However, my feelings continued to persist, and I proved you wrong

Saw the changes-thought they'd go away-do you still remember that day
You observed the alterations in my behavior and assumed they were temporary. Do you recall that specific time?

Can't really fault you-only have myself to blame-
I cannot hold you entirely responsible, as I understand that I may be the one to blame

But do you still feel the same
However, do you still share the same sentiments towards me?

Do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya?
I question whether or not you do

But I waited so long-for someone to take my hand, and say they understand
I have been longing for someone to offer assistance and understanding for quite some time now

And I waited so long-for someone to show the way-to make a better day
Additionally, I yearn for someone to guide me and assist in making my days better

and I waited so long-for someone to spare a kiss for the love I miss
Furthermore, I desire affection and intimacy from someone whom I love and miss

And I waited so long-for you to looke me in the eye
I have been waiting for a prolonged amount of time for you to confront me face-to-face

And say it's worth another try
To formerly express that I'm worth revitalizing our relationship

But yo keep me waiting-waiting-too many times
Moreover, you have continuously kept me waiting, and it's begun to become insufferable

You keep me waiting, one too many, one too many, one too many times, Too many times
You've made me wait an excessive amount of times, until it became one too many occurrences.

One too many one too many one too many times too many times
Repeated too often to bear, too many times.

Can't you see yo keep me waiting-one too many times
Please be aware that you subject me to a prolonged waiting game, one too many times
