I'm Sorry

I’m sorry about your scars

And all this pain you’re feeling

I try to cover my eyes

But I still see you bleeding

I wish I could change who I was

Who I’m supposed to be

If I could go back in time

Wrap you in a hug

And protect you from the world

That bites and cuts and knocks you down

Brings tears to your face

Covers up your grace

I'm sorry...

Life is hard, it favours the bold

We're too young to feel this old
