My Lengthy Apology
I wrote you a poem in primary school, that I lost in a box of my toys
I only hid it away at first, to try to block out the noise
A secret I kept because I was ashamed of myself
I wish I had known better than a child
You can't put broken toys back on the shelf
And sometimes imagination runs wild
And I'm sorry I keep you in shadows
Because you deserve better than me
There are so many things that you'll never know
This is my lengthy apology
I woke up at midnight and went for a drive, it was raining and I
couldn't sleep
I felt right at home, in the darkness, so cold and so deep
All I can think of are the stupid mistakes
The many nights I spent alone
A million voices shake the ground like earthquakes
Can't keep pretending that I'm made of stone
And I'm sorry I keep you in the shadows
Because you deserve better than me
There are so many things I never told you
This is my lengthy apology
I wrote you a poem in primary school, that I lost in a box of my toys
I only hid it away at first, to try to block out the noise
And I'm sorry I keep you in the shadows
Because you can do better than me
There are so many thing that I cannot tell you
This is my lengthy apology
And I know I've been a liar my whole life
But that's all I know how to be
I'll never speak of my secrets again
This is my lengthy apology
I wrote you a poem in primary school that I lost in a box of my toys
