about

We all make mistakes and often time are left with a feeling of regret and torment. Even after we realize that we can no longer mend the relationship we broke the battle continues in our heads. I hope that this song relates to you and helps you heal if you are in such a situation. We are only people. You must forgive yourself before anyone else can truly forgive you.

lyrics

I can't tell you how I'm feelin
I don't want you to know
Somethin's changed inside of me
and I'm prayin it don't show
What use to be is no longer
And I wish it wasn't so
But i've done all I can do now
I must reap what i have sown

And The Past is Dead and Gone
I can't undo these things I've done
All that I ask is your re-sent-ments pass
As I sail into the sun
The War for your heart might me over my dear,
but the battle in my head has just begun

I wish that I could go back
I'd have a different view
I'd change my whole perspective
I'd change my whole you
I'd bring you pretty flowers
when every day was through
but hindsights 20/20
and my visions locked on you


Even if you took me in
I wouldn't know, i wouldn't know where to begin
I'd tell you I was sorry, I'd tell you I was wrong
I'd write a pretty poem or I'd sing a happy song
but I knoooooowwwww
Yes I knoooowwww

That the past is dead and gone
I can't undo these things I've done
And all that I ask is your resentments pass
as I sail into the sun
The war for your heart might me over my dear,
but the battle in my head, yes the battle in my head,
whoa this battle in my head has just...ended.
