Can I get a break from my mistakes?
Those always seem to determine my fate
Because I realized the love I had for you to late
Awakened every night with a sweaty face and deep shakes
Please baptize me from my sin
That has dug deep within my skin
Never to let me breathe a clean breath again
Because what I know now I didn’t know then
The mistakes of my past seem to haunt my ***
As I try to get a grasp on knowing I let go the best for the last
Now I’m lonely stuck on my past
Praying that I could go back
Can I get a break a clear sky?
Even a bright night
A sunny day
A walk in the park oh how I remember those days
Like the time you held me and told me to cry
That you were right there to dry my eyes
And you never lied
Can’t say the same about my self
Now I’m haunted by my own questioning…. WHY
I just need one break one time to apologize
For my lies those tears I put in your eyes
Followed by those lonely night
Give me a chance to prove myself to you
And if not help me have a break through
Softly spoken
