Come Clean
(专辑: Mend, Move On - 2014)
The
image of you, The
thought burns right through. A
flaw in an otherwise perfect crime. It's funny how, The
things I
care about, Are damaged but The
unimportant things are fine. 14 Herbert Street, Two thousand and ten, I
was eighteen. I
couldn't keep my fucking story straight. I
pushed you all away, But the
street lights on Mayne, They still flicker, Even though we're never there to see. I
always wanted to call but I
had nothing to say. And you seemed better off since you moved away. I
can't say I
don't miss the
company, Of such a
better example of me. And I
know I
had you all concerned, But I've changed now, I'm better. And I
got just what I
deserved. Persistence, respect is a
process. Torn between, Another bullshit apology, Or blaming everything I
said, On a
broken self-esteem. Dodge the
burden, evade the
blame, Or suck it up and just come clean. I'll never be the
same again, And all I
have to thank is me. Is there anything I
can say, To bring back the
old days. I
know I
had you all concerned, But I've changed now, I'm better. And I
got just what I
deserved. Persistence, respect is a
process. I've been obsessing over bridges burned. Though it's over it lingers. So tell the
others when it works for you, I
miss you, and life's a
little longer now.
