Don't touch the pictures in the frames.
Don't leave evidence.
My mother says that I'm the one to blame.
I think that's evident.
So tell me how you hate me now again
And how everything's my fault
And in between all of your tears,
I won't tell you you're wrong.
If you forgive me now, then maybe I'll forgive myself
And do my best to make right
For the way that things worked out.
If you would tell me all the things that I've been doing wrong,
I'd find the ways that I could change
And all the reasons you're gone.
Don't let me keep keeping you awake
In all your dreams at night.
My father said that I'm still the one to blame
And, God, I know he's right.
I tell you how I love you now again
And how this is all my fault
And in between all of my tears,
You keep yelling I'm wrong.
If you forgive me now, then maybe I'll forgive myself
And do my best to make right
For the way that things worked out.
If you would tell me all the things that I've been doing wrong,
I'd find the ways that I could change
And all the reasons you're gone.
The reasons that you're gone.
So keep me holding on to hope that you'll change your mind.
And don't pretend that you now
Just what I'm feeling inside.
And when it all settles down
And we're alright again,
You'll have the memories of what we could have never been.
If you forgive me now,
Then maybe I'll forgive myself
And do my best to make right
For the way that things worked out.
If you would tell me all the things that I've been doing wrong,
I'd find the ways that I could change and all the reasons.
If you forgive me now
Then maybe I'll forgive myself
And do my best to make right
For the way that things worked out.
If you would tell me all the things that I've been doing wrong,
I'd find the ways that I could change
And all the reasons you're gone.
Then maybe I won't have to pray that I don't end up alone.
