PhemieC - An Apology lyrics

Once upon a time a stutter disgusted me
Muttered distrust at me
Pity you couldn't fly
I've only ever taken what's mine
So what if I help you, I'm helping myself
Too?

Twice I got the wind knocked out of me, why?
Just to curl up and die? No
I've got too much pride
So I breathe it in then let it out slow
When I turn to go, find you trailing behind
I fought for every last inch that I got
Forgive me for leaving my spot
Not standing in wait while
You finished the race
With those two broken legs you've got

One thing's for sure
If I were you I never would
Have let it stop me i never have before
And if you knew what I went through
While trying to get through to you
You'd thank me!

You'd get down on one knee
No matter how much it hurt
And you would say "I'm sorry"
But I would say it first

Once, the two of us were eye for an eye
Now I've given up trying
How could I be so blind?
You'll never let me settle the score
To you I'm the scourge
Not the the partner in crime

I fought for every last one of you schmucks!
I might as well have saved my luck
Not wasted it all on some shortsighted
Know-it-all so-called friends, you're not

One thing's for sure
If I were you I never would
Have let it stop me i never have before
And if you knew what I went through
While trying to get through to you
You'd thank me!

You'd find me in a dream
On some uncharted map
And I would say I'm sorry
And you would want me back

Once the world was just a web and a spider
And so was I a liar in a dress of white
