Apologies On A Clothes Lines
Folder:
The Present Well I heard that you got hurt
But I was just too far gone to care
And just the same to want to return
So this time you shouldn’t expect a “I hope you get better”
Cause I remember the way you used to read my letters
In front of your friends and laughing at the words
I’ve punished myself enough
Enough to know that it kinda feels good
To know that you’re in a little pain
But don’t get me wrong, I’m not cold hearted
Cause this is the first time it’s actually feels warm
And I’m not sorry for that
No, not this time
Apologies on a clothes line
Hung out until they’re finally dry
And then faded by the sun
Well this is the first time I’ve enjoyed the light
In a while, I might come back inside
Not today
I might come back inside
No, not this time
I might step out of the light
No, not today
No, not this time
Not today
Well I heard that you got hurt
Well maybe it’s what you need to learn to feel
And I’m not sorry for saying that
I’m not going to read your letter
Let it fade in the sun
