Have I failed us again, my dear? |
|
By saying things that were untrue? |
|
Dodging things that needed doing |
|
And this damage I have done |
|
Is now becoming way too much for me to undo |
|
I should have changed my ways when you warned me |
|
When the sky turned grey with a promise of rain |
|
Sweet wine into the river. I'll decline |
|
Yet another try to make good on a promise I made |
|
Keep it safe for a single day |
|
I have failed you again, dear friend |
|
No curse reversed. I'm still unreserved |
|
All white lies in a line of many |
|
Out for blood, have formed an army |
|
If the first step is indeed the hardest |
|
(It's a leap of faith) |
|
There is a chance I may actually rise above this |
|
(It's fighting chance) |
|
A final chance to redeem myself |
|
I'm way too skilled in deception |
|
I'm all too prone to indiscretion |
|
Yet again I'll try to make good on a promise I made |
|
It's a promise I made at the break of a brand new day |
|
It's a promise I may well break before the end of the day |
