My words came out wrong last night
"I'm sorry" doesn't quite convey
How I wish could take it back
Find some other thing to say

I know I do not deserve your love
Compassion of any kind
I just wanted to tell you
Without your voice I'm losing my mind

I am fueled by only four hours of sleep
Chaos in my head
Replaying the unrelenting scene
Laid awake for ages in my bed

Wondering what you thought about
I watched evening turn to light
What could I possibly do
To make up with you and make it right?

A sincere apology is not enough
Fix everything that I do wrong
Owe you so much more than that
For being and keeping me strong
An oldie but goodie. Why can't I write this well anymore?
