As We Sin - All's Not Well Lyrics

When you were born I was blessed by your smile
I took care of your every need
There wasn't much but it was all that we had
No one ever starved in this family
All of your clothes might be hand-me-downs
To have something new was a rarity
Being young, you just never saw
Hard times can't be lived without ease
Well, all's not well
Now you don't know me
I'm just a member of this family
Do I mean nothing to you
To me, that's what it seems
You don't know me
I'm just a victim of a tragedy
Did I love it a little too much
Tongue-tied and twisted, I don't know what to say
Miscommunication seems to fill my days
Awkward silences are more profound
Not too easy to make a sound
How did it come to this, I'd like to know
It takes some time, so I'm told
Damned if I'm going to take all of the blame
After years of guilt, I'm free of the pain
Well, all's not well
Now you don't know me
I'm just a member of this family
Do I mean nothing to you
To me, that's what it seems
You don't know me
I'm just a victim of a tragedy
Did I love it a little too much
Now you don't know how many times
I've cried myself to sleep
Tried to find a new and better way
To make you love me
At the end of every day
Nothing seems to change
All that's left is another day
That you didn't love me
Well, all's not well
Now you don't know me
I'm just a member of this family
Do I mean nothing to you
To me, that's what it seems
You don't know me
I'm just a victim of a tragedy
Did I love it a little too much
Innocence of youth can be a blessed thing
Everyday life is so unforeseen
You can grow up strong, be brought to your knees
You're never really safe in a family
Pain can persist and the swelling can grow
Left unattended, who will know
The dying in your heart, that look in your eyes
Remembering the last time we said goodbye
Well, all's not well
Now you don't know me
I'm just a member of this family
Do I mean nothing to you
To me, that's what it seems
You don't know me
I'm just a victim of a tragedy
Did I love it a little too much
A little too much
A little too much
A little too much
