An Apology

Intro: Verse Once upon a time a stutter disgusted me muttered distrust at me, pity you couldn’t fly I’ve only ever taken what’s mine So what if I help you, I’m helping myself, too? Verse Twice I got the wind knocked out of me, why? Just to curl up and die? No, I’ve got too much pride. So I breathe it in then let it out slow, When I turn to go, find you falling behind. I fought for every last inch that I got Forgive me for leaving my spot Not standing in w8 while you finish the race with those two broken legs you’ve got. One thing’s for sure… If I were you I never would have let it stop me, I never have before. And if you knew what I went through while trying to get through to you, you’d thank me! Bridge You’d get down on one knee, no matter how much it hurt And you would say “I’m sorry”, but I would say it first… Verse Once, the two of us were eye for an eye Now I’ve given up trying how could I be so blind? You’ll never let me settle the score To you I’m the scourge, not the partner in crime I fought for every last one of you schmucks! I might as well have saved my luck Not wasted it all on some shortsighted, know-it-all so-called friends, you’re not. One thing’s for sure… If I were you I never would have let it stop me, I never have before. And if you knew what I went through while trying to get through to you, you’d thank me! Bridge You’d find me in a dream, on some uncharted map And I would say I’m sorry, and you would want me back… Outro Once the world was just a web and a spider, and so was I. A liar in a dress of white.
