An Apology – 20/02/2011 @ 9.21pm

When I look into your eyes

I can see your pain.

So let me in,

I can take the strain.

I’m the reason

That you feel this way.

Let me prove I am sorry

And make everything okay.

I know what I did was wrong

I know I’m a hypocrite.

But I wish I could take it back.

I treated you like shit.

I witnessed something

That shook my very foundations.

So I lashed out,

Didn’t hand out a chance to explanation.

I refuse to lie to you.

I did want to get you back

For what I thought you did to me

But my intuition was way out of whack.

You and me were always two of a kind.

You were always there, I just didn’t realise

Up until recently. I’ve been so blind!

The depth of your feelings were more than just a surprise.

I was the one in your “Grenade”

Until one day I woke up inside.

You tried to change yourself, so I would notice, but I love you “Just the way you are”

And I now feel the same “When we collide”

I shouldn’t have jumped to that conclusion

I made like Jack in The Shining

I fucked everything up

But every cloud has a silver lining

I remember the time, out with the girls

Just a normal day.

People thought Hayley was ours.

That smile, full of Pride, but your Heart, full of pain.

I know how it feels to be a mule amongst a stable of horses.

Your barriers are up

But I will stay my course

Ready for when you’re ready (to let me in)

There is only a brick wall between us

But it feels like so much more

You’re nearby, but you feel so far away.

But I will stay my course.

You know the lengths I will go

To keep you safe

You saw it with your own eyes

I don’t need a poker face.

If someone raised a knife or a gun to hurt you

I’d push you to the floor

Take your place

And never be less than 100% sure.

I’ve pushed you away from oncoming cars

Jumped on a railway, when you fell

Ran into a burning building

Jumped into a frozen lake.

There is nothing I wouldn’t do.
