SHADOWS OF REGRET

SHADOWS OF REGRET

Jealous eyes,

Speak vicious lies,

Mistakes I’ve made,

Their price I’ve paid,

Hear the remorse from my mouth,

Not the rumors others spout,

I’m sorry everyday,

For not loving you the right way,

The shadows of regret,

Will never allow me to forget,

And the song shall remain,

I must live with this pain,

A burden I carry within,

For not letting you in,

I’m sorry for breaking your heart,

This atrophy is tearing me apart,

Do not pity me,

For I don’t deserve empathy,

Hate me now,

The way you loved me somehow,

I’m sorry everyday,

For not loving you the right way,

The shadows of regret,

Will never allow me to forget,

Just do me a favor this day,

Don’t listen to what others say,

The truth comes from my mouth,

Not the rumors others spout,

You see, jealous eyes,

Speak overly zealous lies.
