Anees - leave me - live in dc (Live) Lyrics

Raise your flashlights up the sky
High as your arms can reach tonight
But this is not a breakup song
This is an
"I'm sorry that I hurt you and it took me so long to apologize for"
All of the selfish shit I did
But I love you enough to stand here and admit
And admit that
And admit that
Oh no
And admit that
I don't like the person that I am when I hurt you
Cause in those moments I desert you
And I realize I don't deserve you
No I don't deserve you but
I'm praying on my knees
I'm begging that you won't leave me
But you can do so much better please believe me
So I won't blame you if you leave me, leave me cause I
I made a promise on the day we said vows
I swore to love you and to never let you down
I told your father I'd protect you from the pain
I told your mother I would shelter you from rain
You were the only one that I have ever dreamed of
My perfect truth that I've hidden with every lie
If only I was less concerned about our future
I might have noticed you needed me by your side
And after all of those days, you kept it inside
Don't know how I missed every tear that you cried
I loved you enough to let you be free
So I can't blame you baby, it started with me
I loved you, but left you in moments of need
We broke like a promise too heavy to keep
And baby, it kills me lately
Cause maybe I'm the reason why
I don't like the person that I am when I hurt you
Cause in those moments I desert you
And I realize I don't deserve you
No, I don't deserve you but
I'm praying on my knees
I'm begging that you won't leave me
But you can do so much better please believe me
So I won't blame you if you leave me, leave me cause I
I'm so sorry for the way things went down
You deserve a king and I'm not wearing no crown
There's tears welling up in your eyes
I'd be lying through my teeth if I told you I was surprised

What did I think?
Would happen after all of this time
It's like you blink and seven years just passes you by
I wish that I could run it back and right my wrongs
Maybe you wouldn't be gone if I wasn't chasing these songs
And I spent my energy trying to actually be a better man
I lost my centerpiece, I don't think you understand
What you meant to me, our love was deeper than ration
But never loved you enough to set you free from my passion, I
I don't like the person that I am when I hurt you
Cause in those moments I desert you
And I realize I don't deserve you
No I don't deserve you but
I'm praying on my knees
I'm begging that you won't leave me
But you can do so much better please believe me
So I won't blame you if you leave me, leave me cause I
But maybe we had to break to grow
Maybe I had to lose to learn
When I hear your name I feel that pain
In my heart still burns
Maybe this is my sacrifice
Maybe I'll love you my whole life
I'll lay down my pride
And hope you find me on the other side
I don't like the person that I am when I hurt you
Cause in those moments I desert you
And I realize I don't deserve you
No I don't deserve you but
I'm praying on my knees
I'm begging that you won't leave me
But you can do so much better please believe me
So I won't blame you if you leave me
Oh
Leave me cause I
