The Road To Ruin - Occasion By Occasion

I didn't mean to be so rude
I bowed down to my mood
I don't want to be misconstrued
I'm working on my attitude

And I know what I put you through
It's not a reflection on you
And I know I lost some trust I earned
And I still got so much to unlearn

As I let my bitterness give way for tenderness
Won't ask by apology for your forgivingness

But occasion by occasion I will rise
Yeah occasion by occasion I will rise

I don't know how I get it wrong
I've been working on it for so long
I know better than to raise my voice
Which is not to say it's not a choice

As I take my stubbornness and trade it for openness
I do not ask you for a love that's conditionless

But occasion by occasion I will rise
Yeah occasion by occasion I will rise

There's so much confusion and terror in me
But I'm working on the person that I'd like to be

And occasion by occasion I will rise
Yeah occasion by occasion I will rise
Yeah occasion by occasion I will rise
