Been Here Before
Echoes of Redemption: The Lost Tapes' Journey through Mistakes and Longing
Lyrics
Well I've been here before
Expressing familiarity with the current situation or experience.
I'm well versed in the score
Well-acquainted with the circumstances or events.
I've battened down the hatch
Securing oneself for challenges or difficulties.
Been away but now I'm back
Returning after a period of absence.
Well I've schemed yes its true
Admitting to having made plans, possibly deceitful.
I've lied and misled you
Confessing to dishonesty and leading astray.
But I've coined it all in
Monetizing or benefiting from the experiences, even negative ones.
I've bleed and I've sinned
Having suffered and committed sins.
But still you want him
Despite flaws, the listener desires someone else.
And oh darlin, you heard it all before
Acknowledging that similar promises or expressions have been made previously.
And oh darlin, I'm begging out for more
Seeking or pleading for additional understanding or attention.
Well I've been here before
Reiterating a past experience or circumstance.
And I've answered ever door
Having faced various situations and challenges.
Been left out in the cold
Experiencing rejection or neglect.
I've been bought and resold
Being treated as a commodity or object.
But still you want more
Despite past experiences, the desire for more persists.
And oh darlin, you heard it all before
Repeating the familiarity of previous statements or expressions.
And oh darlin, I'm begging out for more
Expressing an ongoing plea or desire for increased involvement.
Well I know that I swore
Acknowledging a promise or commitment made earlier.
But I comb the streets for more
Actively seeking or searching for additional experiences.
I saddle up to you
Approaching or engaging with someone intimately.
I've been away but now I'm true
Returning with a newfound sincerity or genuineness.
And oh darlin, you heard it all before
Repeating the plea or desire for more understanding or attention.
And oh darlin, I'm begging out for more
Continuing to seek or ask for additional involvement.
