I have been saving these words for a while
hiding with smiles I threw out your way
to distract from the aches and pains
I carelessly laid at your door
And I was bleeding, seizing in a heap on the floor
trying to carve out my heart so I wouldn't feel it so sore
And I never meant to, I swear it
but I'm sure I hurt yours much more.

Oh, the throws of disease,
the wind that it blows
split us right down the seams and now it's starting to show
that this might be my one shot at atonement with you

I am so sorry for breaking your heart,
for letting you down, for calling you out
before you were ready to start
sorting it out, how selfish my heart
for screaming so loud the words that tore us apart
and I'm scared it's my fault
Oh, look what I've done

Oh, the throws of disease,
the wind that it blows
split us right down the seams and now it's starting to show
that this might be my one shot at atonement with you

Please, wait.

You can keep walking away
if you really want to
I will not ask you to stay after the shit I put you through
But the least I can do is tell you the truth
So I'm sorry, and I miss you, and I love you

Oh, the throws of disease,
the wind that it blows
split us right down the seams and now it's starting to show
that this might be my one shot to break down the walls I built between me and you
Believe me, it's true
Let's rewind......
