The Apology

Though we didn't mean to say it we did nonetheless
Now it's out there for us to think of
And even more disconcerting is how things were left
With the tears of the one that I love
Why's it so hard to be the first one to say
"I'm sorry"

And I know you'll hold on to your anger a while
As our voices diminuendo
But the truth is this hour we're living exiled
In a place we swore we'd never go
If we'd only let go this need to repay
I'm sorry, I'm sorry

When it's time to turn out the light
I'll be with you then
Though this moment seems empty, we will feel again
You won't always be left as my tragedienne

And when all's said and done at the end of the day
I'm sorry
You're sorry
We're sorry
