This goes out to you Once you were my friend Someone who could go on Where I would turn and run But we were different then, not so worn When last I heard your voice, You sounded like a ghost And now you're almost gone I'm so sorry This will not turn out as it should I'm so sorry And I would change it if I could Broken hearts are fragile The shards are sharp as knives, and bitterly cold The strength that drew you in Became the wall that shut you out You ran, never looking back, And anyone who cared was made a liar But a safe road is hard to find When there's nowhere left to go I'm so sorry This will not turn out as it should I'm so sorry And I would change it if I could And I've spent too many hours diving back down in the mud To find some meaning in a madness that I never understood I am tracing, step by step, the rot and where it first took hold, Back through the promises you've broken and the lies you must have told 'Cause something must have chased all the softness from your face Turned your eyes into a visor, pushed that hard mouth into place Some doors, when they've been closed, will not open for a grin There's no one on the outside And there's no way back in I'm so sorry This will not turn out as it should I'm so sorry And I would change it if I could I'm so sorry
