Woorden: Half Hearted Hero. Defining. Refining.. A Clean Break.

Let's go back to the beginning of the story
I missed the best part in my anticipation of the end
And with relapse comes repentence so let's review and reconsider it
Let's go back to where I told you I was sorry
I didn't realize that an apology could lose me a friend
And by talking in circles we'll never know where to begin

I guess I never understood how we parted ways
I left you sitting in the dark with your mouth full of nothing to say
I guess I'll never understand just how it works
It's a give and take, it's a bend and break, it's a live and learn

It's too late for sorries now, yes, I know
I'm still hanging on, I won't let go
I'm not trying to return, I just want you to understand what I said to you

Let's go forward to the present, here we are now
And the tension is so thick that you could cut it with a knife
Our conversations are all trivial, so let's come clean and give them some life
I was thinking of the future and I'm sorry
For me to continue pretending would just feel too wrong
So I'll just continue hiding under apologies that I've laid out in my songs

Don't think that I meant for things to turn out this way
I just couldn't stand to leave you hanging for one more day
Don't think that I had planned on being such a jerk
I just couldn't take it, to keep on faking it wouldn't work

It's too late for sorries now, yes, I know
I'm still hanging on, I won't let go
I'm not trying to return, I just want you to understand what I said to you

I hate to make such a clean break because I know it hurts
I pray you take all that I gave for all that it's worth
