One Thousand Apologies

There you stood in disbelief
Trying all you could to see through these lies
And every word that I could breathe
Would find you more inclined to leave, but I tried
And knowing what I've done to you
With every thought you suffer through
My heart as black as evil can
And everything I could have been
Erased by what I wanted then
I couldn't think a lesser man

(Pre-chorus:)
All the delicate ways
That I deepened our graves
My apology pales

(Chorus:)
Oh, the pain in your eyes
My regrets have never known such sorrow
Oh, the shame that you hide
Resolutions are the same tomorrow

So now I reap what I have sewn, and any rapture I had shown has bled dry
And I walked the streets alone, accepting the pain I'd never known, as you died
Then I hurt myself to see it too, to feel the knife put in you
My heart as broken as my ways
I never should've let it pass, this fall was never meant to last
The reason gone and damage stays

(Pre-chorus)

(Chorus)

(Pre-chorus)

(Chorus)
