Never could admit all the lies
All those times I said I was fine
And all this time we've lost as it flies
Another sad dreg of mankind
I never really knew what to say
I wonder if there's (there're) words to explain
The reasons I had to escape
To wash this mortal coil in the rain
Will you ever forgive me
Will you
Will you ever Will you ever
Forgive me
Refusing to fight for all my days
Returning the ghost from whence it came
I'm leaving this crown of thorns in the wake
I'm sorry for breaking up you and I
I'm sorry for not really saying goodbye
I'm sorry for taking my own ( )
Never could admit all the lies
All those times you said you were fine
And all this time we've lost as it flies
Another left dead buried and behind
I
Gotta sit back here and wonder why your dumb ass chose to tread that path
The love has passed and all that remains
Are memories and dreams and your mother's screams
I'll never forgive you
I'll never forgive you
This rain that'll never pass
For the light that you had
Cursed us with a love that can't be matched
I pray that if there's ever gonna be a chance we could meet again
We would never meet again
Cause in the time we've lost that same old smile
Is just gonna be another stranger's grin
