Edward the Confessor

I'm so sorry
 Please forgive me
 For knowing that I'm wrong but insisting I'm right
 For wanting everything to be either black or white
 For wallowing in self-pity, confessing all my sins
 For studying my thoughts till my head caves in
 For all the things I've said but regret so much now
 For all the things I should have said but I couldn't somehow
 For all the times I've meant them
 And I've known them for so long
 But I still get endings wrong
 I'm so sorry
 Please forgive me
 For trying to be all things to all men
 For shelving my objectives time and time again
 For looking for perfection in everything I do
 When really I need only look as far as you
 For demanding to be loved by someone who
 Then dispatching quietly over a pint of beer
 Well yeah, I did it without malice
 And I did it without shame
 But I did it just the same
 I'm so sorry
 Please forgive me
 For coming home from work in the middle of the night
 For waking you up with the bathroom light
 For wanting to touch you with these cold cold hands
 For wanting to have you just because I can
 For always running from an argument
 When I ought to stand and fight
 For suppressing my emotions
 'cause I'm too goddamn polite
 and then for thinking that by simply saying sorry
 I could suddenly make everything alright
 I'm so sorry please forgive me...
 I'm so sorry please forgive me...
