I'm trying to compensate
For the void in my mind
With other people
With other pastimes
Nothing is very satisfying
Especially after I've crossed the line
Now I really wish
That I could just rewind
I wouldn't take advantage
Of the moments we shared
The long nights together
When our eyes would stare
Into each other
I could see your soul
Now I am empty
With nowhere to go
I wish I hadn't given up
I wish I gave us a better chance
Everything seems ruined now
Slim odds of romance
I don't think we can come back
Not from this damage
It's all my fault, I've done it to us
It was too hard to manage
I'm sorry for how I've treated you
Nothing can take back the things I've said
I'm sorry for how I gave up on you
Nothing can take back the things I did
Despite my tragic flaws
You still treat me as if I'm the best
You love me unconditionally
Every day I am blessed
What did I ever do to deserve you
I ask myself why I don't try harder
Why I'm not on my knees begging
Why didn't I act smarter
All these questions
Swimming in my head
I know I want this to last
To clean up all I've bled
