LYRICS: It’s too late to get the past back But I’m stuck in the sandtraps And I thought that I was past that My eyelids live in a flashback And I can’t heal your trauma I even said sorry to your mama But am I the type The type of man that I want for my daughters? Don’t lose me now Hold my hand like the first time outside my house When life was just a couple miles Me and you, the world was ours I never meant to steal your smile Fill your heart with fear and doubt I rerun those empty vows I play the tape and I watch for hours I won’t give up on you If you won’t give up on we I can’t live without you I hope that you feel the same about me And I feel lost, I feel safe, all at once And I’m so tired, feel so angry at the world Oh, oh Do the best I can and when I mess it up I say “I’m sorry” Oh, oh When I lose control and make you feel so bad I say “I’m sorry” I made a list of all the reasons why I think that you should stay And at the top I said, “I promise I’ll get better someday,” yeah But all these Sundays turn to Mondays Empty promises grow cold What if someday turns to one day You get sick of me and go I won’t give up on you If you won’t give up on we I can’t live without you I hope that you feel the same about me And I feel lost, I feel safe, all at once And I’m so tired, feel so angry at the world Oh, oh Do the best I can and when I mess it up I say “I’m sorry” Oh, oh When I lose control and make you feel so bad I say “I’m sorry” Oh, oh Do the best I can and when I mess it up I say “I’m sorry” Oh, oh When I lose control and make you feel so bad I say “I’m sorry”
