Those tears you cry, they're not for me
A desperate plea to leave it be
My promise of change waited for patiently
After I destroyed your dreams so mercilessly
I ripped apart your life for my selfish pride
Left you on the cross to be crucified
My fatal flaw all the times I lied
Arousing suspicion that I never tried
The tears have dried upon your face
Time is my enemy upon which I race
My salvage mission picks up the pace
My desperation reaps not a trace
The deepest wound, your distant stare
Straight through me as if I wasn't there
All memories gone, the cupboard bare
Condemning me to the electric chair
The final act of indignity
Forgiveness not asked, but given to me
My humiliation evident for all to see
Until I finally accept full responsibility
